Gaming Laptop Under $800 AUD

wertie8297 · Oct 24, 2014

Ok, so I am looking for a laptop that will be able to handle games such as GMod, Counter-Strike GO, Heroes and Generals, and a few other games like that. Please note that the price range is under $800, and it needs to be in Australian currency.

Any help would be much appreciated, even if it is something like "Nope, not gonna happen."

Thanks,
wertie8297.

rockie_ :

Thank you, I took a look. I'm going to leave the thread open incase there are any other laptops that people might suggest.

This thread, from yesterday covers similar ground.

Have a look and see the options once we get past my initial misunderstanding.

Rockie_ US Newegg prices are of limited value in Australia.

HP

i3/i5 + Geforce 840M / 820M and better

The HP uses an APU which most would not recommend. The computers in the other thread are good choices for the budget.

DonkeyOatie :

He , he , they re good cus have Geforce 840 with 384 shaders but are out of the budget . If he can extend his budget , i highly recommend a laptop with 840M .

This one, from that thread:
http

/www.harveynorman.com.au/computers-tablets/computers/laptops/acer-aspire-v3-572g-55ft-laptop.html

fits in budget AND has a 840m

DonkeyOatie :

Ah , at last i saw its graphics . Yes , if he desnt mind Acer

DonkeyOatie · Oct 24, 2014

I don't. There are both better and worse machines out there. My brother-in-law, down-under, has used Acer for many years without problems.

In my experience, Acer laptops have always been trustworthy. I had an old Acer which died a couple of months ago (Hence the purpose of this thread), I never had any problems with it, and it always ran smoothly. I have both a Harvey Norman, and a Dick Smith nearby, so the one that DonkeyOatie found is probably my best bet at the moment. The 840M graphics card in the Acer Aspire V3-572G-55FT looks like it can handle most of the things that I need to do, so I think out of all of them, I will be going to the Acer Aspire at the moment.

I will leave this thread open for two more days, incase there is any more advice that anyone scrolling over this thread could use.

Thanks,
wertie8297.
