Title: Gaming Laptop
Post by: [TiG]JimeatsLans on August 14, 2007, 12:22:01 PM
lo

Moving to England next month and so I want to purchase a laptop for gaming etc over there. Atm the most likely option is http://www.laptopsdirect.ie/Acer_Aspire_5920WSMi_Laptop_LX.AGS0X.015/version.asp I have found anything else that matches that spec for the price. My limit is around ?1200.

Anyone any recommendations?

Not sure what the view is on Dell but I'm sure you'll get a good spec laptop for that price.

There was a good deal going on a business laptop the other week but I missed it. All the rest I've checked now have substandard gfx cards.
