Hello, i want to buy a laptop, a "gaming" one. I dont know if i should call it gaming, i want to be able to play games like Dota 2, Team fortress 2, Guild Wars 2 on high defeniton, no lagg, etc.
My budget would be around 700$ max, or something like that.
Thank you for your help

Gw2 basically requires a intel CPU

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834314181

Cheap, a10-5750m (basically equivalent to i3 SV or i5 ULV) 8750m (less than 640m). Don't really recommend but only $600.

$640, nice gpu (740m is almost 650m level), ULV CPU (hurts in Gw2). (Check if its GK107 with 128 bit bus)

At budget limit, 730m + i5 non ULV (Check if its GK107 with 128 bit bus)

Bit over, small battery.

The difference between the 740 and the 730 is very small if both have the 128 bit bus (5-15%).

Again, suggest an intel CPU (because MMO's tend to be CPU heavy). In terms of GPU strength generally goes

HD 3000 < HD 4000 <= A8 < HD 4600 < A10 < 630m/7670m < 87xx series < 640m ~ 730m (128 bit) ~ 740m < 650m < 660m < 88xx series < 750m
