Recommended Laptop Brand for gaming under 350Euro/$385

[vlad9727]

Greetings. Which laptop brand would u recommend to someone who plays on computer for about 10h/day? I heard Asus is doing a, pretty much, good job about their laptops. Which other would u go for if u were in my position? One of the things im looking for is a laptop that won't have temperature problems. I had an old Acer. It had huge issues with temperature. I also had an ancient Fujitsu Siemens who also had problems with temperature(most of them because of the bad positioning of the CPU and cooler)
max budget=350Euro/$385

Why im not going for a Desktop ? Because i already bought one in november and in mid-late summer of 2016 ill need a laptop for college (Although i should be studying, im gonna play on computer too).

Asus , Lenovo, MSI are all doing very well in the gaming arena... This doesn't mean though that any laptop from those brands will be suitable for gaming.... For gaming you need a laptop with a decent processor, decent dedicated graphics card and of course- I recommend 8 GB RAM... I am sorry to say though that your budget 350Euro/$385 will not give you a laptop capable of doing any substantial gaming..

Im not into playing Fallout 4 or GTA V on it, just basic games such as CSGO, LoL, Dota 2 maybe, MMORPGs (WoW,Tera,B&S),BF4, all of them with graphics on medium or lower.
I dont need ultra or high settings on those games, neither medium. If they can run with over 45-60fps on low im more than happy. About the brands.. im more scared of the components and where did the brand acquired them from. One of the most frustrating issues on components its high temperature. Thats what im looking forward to avoid. I will defintely not go for an Acer or fujitsu siemens ever again.

Anyway...
I heard some good opinions about Asus and their laptops. Now about Lenovo, i read somewhere that they put the cheapest parts and components in their laptops which will hardly make them good of anything. MSI, never had anything from them, but i heard they do a good job with their products.

Even then I still recommend a laptop with at least a low end graphics card which I don't see you getting in that budget.... Have a look at the Toshiba Satellite C55D.
And sometimes it's really hard to judge brands as I have used two Acers and really haven't had a problem- in fact, I had an Acer laptop from 2007- 2014 and the only issue it at when I gave it away was low battery life.. (most laptops can't keep a decent battery life for 3 years)..

Most of them have either Nvidia 920m 2GB or R5 m230/m330 2GB and as for CPU its either i3-4005U/i5-5200U/AMD a8-6410. Wouldnt those be enough for the games i listed above on low-med settings? I mean, i used to play them with +25-30 fps on a Geforce 9500GT 512mb and AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2GHz.

Oh yeh! If you are able to get a laptop with the Nvidia 920m 2GB and an i5 or even i3 processor, then that would actually be very decent for those games... I am not sure of a place I can get a laptop with those components for under $380 ... So if you know a store, then that is very good.

Well, the parts i mentioned are from laptops that have a discount right now, although im not gonna buy any in this moment.
Their prices should be around 420Euro/$450 and during summer there will be huge discounts again.

Thx for the help .
I'd go with this one right now, but till summer there will be other offers, other laptops : http/www.emag.ro/laptop-asus-cu-procesor-intelr-coretm-i3-4005u-1-70ghz-haswelltm-15-6-hd-4gb-500gb-dvd-rw-nvidia-geforce-920m-2gb-free-dos-black-x555lj-xx741d/pd/DYRWSYBBM/
