I have been weighing my options on which laptop I want to buy to take with me to university;
I am after something that is preferably not over £800, has a Full HD display preferably and can run some of the less intensive games relatively easily; I do have a gaming PC which handles all my high intensive gaming, so the focus of this laptop should not be all about the gaming, at most it will have 5 games on it at once probably and they will usually be for when I am travelling home for the weekend or anywhere else.
The type of games I would probably end up playing would be along the lines of Hearthstone, Garry's Mod, Tropico, The Sims, Football Manager, and maybe at a push, Skyrim, DayZ or stuff like Guild Wars 2.
Now I have found a brand of laptop I love, and with my basic knowledge of computers I can see that they might be good enough for what I need and so I have three models of the brand at different prices for you guys to consider also, because this is the part Im struggling with; do I go with the most expensive of my choices to be on the safe side in terms of performance, or do my needs mean i'd be paying more than I need to and could get the cheapest model.

Even though I really like this brand as well I am open to other suggestions if there is something out there that is better and cheaper, preferably I would like it to be relatively thin.
Thank you for all the help!
