I think you should look into new Ilano series processors because they offer fairly good graphics performance for a relatively low price tag.

unless of course you can find a laptop with or anything better than 540M

also, are you looking to buy the machine in US or buy it from US website and have it shipped to Dubai or buy from local vendor?

if you want to go local, can you give us any website to look at, otherwise we have no way to know what you got available in stores there

 

[AntiZig]

it's a used laptop with non-discrete graphics...

and what kind Processor & video card should a Gaming laptop should have?

Hello dragoon87;

The general rule of thumb is to get the best video card you can afford, and a CPU fast enough not to hold back the video card.

Review and testing results of the Radeon HD 6650M suggests that it should do Medium graphics in the games you listed. But are you OK with that big 17" laptop?

I'll Be Buying the Laptop in Dubai coz there is a chance that the Price will go down because of ramadan. so is Acer Aspire AS5750G 15" Notebook $680 is the best for buck laptop for me?

Maybe i can extend my Budget to $730 if the Discount i can get is that great here in dubai

 

[WR2]

I'm not familiar with the actual costs in Dubai but I do believe that is the case.

What can you find locally with the Core i5-2410 CPU and GT 540M graphics card?

 

[AntiZig]

I think it's a very good choice spec wise for that price tag

i Prefer to stick with Asus,Toshiba or maybe Sony because of the Malfunction List i saw......

its 799$, is it a good one?

 

[jonbeas]

i would go with the asus for 699, the graphics card is decent better than the 525m
