Hi !
My friend is looking for new laptop, mainly focused on gaming. We stumbled upon this lapton: HP 15-r280no 15.6". (http://support.hp.com/fi-fi/document/c04549119) The question is, is this laptop any good for gaming? If not, could you recommend some laptops under 800€?

Thank you !

That is a good laptop if you stick with med settings in the games that you have mentioned but remember that it is not designed for intense gaming. Make sure that you check the temps every time you play games to make sure that the laptop is healthy.
The laptop you have linked for gaming is not very good. It can handle low end game ok but not the current generation of games.

For this price range I would really recommend a desktop as they are better for value unless you plan on playing games like lol at low settings.

Well my friend really wants laptop, around 700€. The computer is not meant to run the lastest games, only olders and on lower settings. Like team fortress 2, payday 2 for example.

I checked one Aspire E laptop (800€) and it had same GPU as the computer as I linked and (gt 840m), but it had slightly worse CPU.
