Quick Help Picking a New Laptop (Options Provided) (University and Gaming)

[CluelessUniBound]

Hello!

My current laptop: https/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834232376&cm_re=940m-_-34-232-376-_-Product

I'm looking for a clear upgrade from my current laptop for as little money as possible (current laptop still works fine, but my sister needs a laptop and I want to give her mine). I know very little about computers and specs but I know I want something that is able to comfortably run; Civ V, FIFA, and Overwatch. I've found these three that look alright imo:

however if anyone knows of any better value I will gladly look at those.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, help is greatly appreciated!

The MSI would offer the best gaming performance since it has the most powerful CPU and the most powerful GPU. Naturally, it is the most expensive.

The Asus would be the second best laptop for games. The AMD CPU is the weakest in the three laptops, but the the GPU is the second most powerful one. Generally speaking as long as the CPU is powerful enough not to bottleneck the GPU, then it should be fine. The AMD CPU is certainly powerful enough.

The Dell Inspiron 7559 is an older laptop with the weakest GPU, but when it was newly released over a year ago the GTX 960m was considered to be the minimum GPU to get in a gaming laptop. Now it's the GTX 1050. I have this laptop and I like it a lot, but not as good for games as newer laptops. I would not consider purchasing a new Dell Inspiron 7559 unless it was selling for $675 or less given it's performance compared to newer laptops.

Thank you for the input! I am leaning towards the MSI and as I was reading up on it I've found many complaints with the screen. Do you know if it would be possible to replace the screen with a better one? I can deal with a sub par screen but if I am able to manually upgrade it I intend to learn how to!
