Hello,
I'm heading to college soon and am looking at investing in a laptop that will allow me to do some gaming while I'm away.
1. What is your budget?
€1000 but I can probably stretch to €1100 if it's a good enough laptop.
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
Anything 15"+.
3. What screen resolution do you want?
Doesn't need to be full 1080 and I'm pretty sure thats not possible at my budget.

Will be on my desk most of the time so desktop replacement.

Not important as I'll have it plugged in.

Battlefield 3, Fifa 2012 and Football Manager 2012 when they're out. Doesn't need to be max settings just decent.
7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
Music production/editing so it needs to be able to run cubase, ableton, reason with plugins etc. So a decent amount of ram.
