Any laptop with an i3 or better and a discrete gfx card (ideally 730 or better) will play LOL without any problems at all.

Should be enough for you: https/www.skroutz.gr/s/6264640/Asus-F555LD-XX323H-i5-4210U-6GB-750GB.html

I looked up the 820M (due to velo3100's post) GPU to see how it did and at 1366x768 it was getting 45 to 60FPS at Ultra settings.

So not a high-end GPU but also not a very demanding game. Plus, not a high budget so assuming the QUALITY of the laptop you choose is okay something like this should be good.

Your ACTUAL game settings may be different. For example, you might end up dropping a few settings to maintain 60FPS with VSYNC ON to prevent screen tearing or if it's more demanding at times than the video shows then locking to 30FPS might be more ideal (using "Half Adaptive VSYNC" in the NVidia Control Panel).

Locking to 30FPS when you're averaging 35FPS to 40FPS makes a huge difference in fan noise as well and VSYNC prevents screen tearing. The drawback is slightly more lag but that's usually not much of an issue to most people for these types of games (FPS shooters on the other hand may choose screen tearing rather than have added lag).

Sorry, so u actually suggesting it is a good one or not? ;p

He says it will suit the purpose of playing LOL

Sorry guys but the one you suggested no longer exists
The time for has come to buy so if you could suggest another one.. Because i really dont understand the laptop hardware. The price can be now 500-580

The BASICS you need to understand for your budget are basically:

1) Quality is reasonable (customer feedback comments), and
2) The GPU is sufficient (NVidia GPU recommended which is 820M or better)
3) Screen is at least 15.6" (not a dinky 13")
4) Capacity at least 250GB (probably a hard drive)
5) Windows 7 or 8 64-bit

The REST of the components are likely to then be fine. I don't recommend AMD APU's for reasons to long to discuss here (memory bandwidth bottlenecks, power consumption and per-core performance).

*Note there were some laptops with Linux or NO OS at all. You don't want those. For Win 7/8 you'll likely want to UPGRADE to Windows 10 later. I suggest waiting until it's not CRITICAL (vacation) until REGISTERING with Microsoft for your upgrade otherwise it will automatically update in August as part of Microsoft Updates (will keep your existing programs and data but you may need to REINSTALL VIDEO DRIVERS so keep this in mind if game performance drops).

Hey,
It's very confusing, but so far based on the specs (no comments) I like THESE TWO the best:
http/www.skroutz.gr/s/6163990/HP-15-r212nv-i5-5200U-4GB-500GB.html

It has:
1) i5-5200 CPU
2) NVidia 820M GPU
3) 1366x768 res screen
4) Windows 8, 500GB HDD, 4GB DDR3

My other choice has a slightly weaker CPU but a higher resolution screen, and larger HDD:
http/www.skroutz.gr/s/5592070/Lenovo-G710-i3-4000M-4GB-1TB-GeForce-GT-820M-W8.html

It has:
1) i3-4000M CPU
2) NVidia 820M GPU
3) 1600x900 res screen
4) Windows 8, 1TB/1000GB HDD, 4GB DDR3

Summary:
I'd go with the one with the higher resolution screen. I've used 1366x768 screens and consider them slightly too low resolution. My dad has a 1600x900 screen and it's quite nice to use. It will make a big difference for everything including LoL.


(There's some confusion with Intel laptop CPU's. Don't look at "i3" vs "i5" just Google then name and compare at Intel site. Both of these have TWO cores with HYPERTHREADING. The 5th gen is roughly 10% faster at processing at the same frequency. You also want to know the maximum frequency.

The i3-4000m goes to 2.4GHz. The i5-5200M goes to 2.7GHz.
http/ark.intel.com/products/75104/Intel-Core-i3-4000M-Processor-3M-Cache-2_40-GHz

*HOWEVER, they've listed the i5 as "2.2GHz suggesting they may have throttled performance to keep it cooler so it's hard to compare them. Let's then just say they might be EQUAL for your usage.

thanks dude!
