Gaming Laptop: Quick Help

[demetrius202]

Hey Guys

Having trouble finding a reliable site to rate good gaming laptops. My story: I have a beast of a desktop that I built a year and a half ago and I'm still happy with it. I'm never gonna find a laptop replacement and dont wanna. But I'll be doggone, I keep having to travel and I have a laptop that cant cut it at all. Found that out tonight in my hotel when I tried to play Warlock Master of the Arcane for the first time. I'm bored as hell and sick of yahoo chess. So I just want portability but a laptop that I can play GOOD games. I have a dell xps 15z which I bought for simple work stuff but now with the travel, I want something MORE. Please help guys, consumer reports just cant.

Hello demetrius202;

A pretty wide range of choices @ www.xoticpc.com


If the GeForce GT 525M graphics card won't cut it for you look for a laptop graphics card that will.

You can click on the games you want and use the list of GPUs to figure out about what level of gaming you're willing to pay for.
