Gaming on a laptop

[Xavier Wells]

So I already have a nice desktop build for gaming, but I want to game on the go. I can't break the bank, absolute limit is about $650. I don't need high graphic settings, just something that will play on medium - medium-low settings on games such as fallout, Minecraft, and dolphin emulation(wii/gamecube emulator) without much tinkering. I was wondering what you thought of these (if they have a low amount of ram I will upgrade and I'll downgrade Windows 8 to 7 if I don't like it). Mainly, I'm considering the first one, but I'm considering the rest:

I believe the HP might be the best choice. Two of them don't list the graphics hardware, and the other one is an APU but a bit less powerful than the HP.

So between the lenovo and the hp, you'd choose the hp?

For sure. I just did a quick google search of that model number, and that laptop is equipped with Intel HD Graphics 4000. The Radeon 7640G in the HP will perform better.

Thanks, and for some backstory I used to game on a pentium 4 single core 3.14 ghz (oc'ed) 512 mb cache, 2.5 gigs of ram, intel g41 onboard with a 200 gig hdd. Oh. And I played fallout and other bethesda games, so really anythings better than that toaster(even though it's the most reliable comp eveeeerrr!) and I only replaced that a two months ago

Awesome, good luck with your new hardware!
