I'm trying to find a good-ish gaming laptop for under $850 (aud) and it doesn't have to play top of the line games. Maybe Bioshock Infinite if I can slip it in there but I'm not expecting much, just need to run the old sims 3 and Bully and the like. Thanks for your help.

I found some deals within your price range 2 of them the same specs but different brand, and another one with a Intel core i7. Here they are:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834198066R

They are in your price rang of 850AUD, about 610 usd.

My choice would be the MSI, since asus is only bought from newegg.com, but msi is a good brand but still the same specs. :)
