I’m looking to buy an affordable laptop that will run Dawn of War 2 smoothly. Any recommendations on the best bang for my buck?
Here’s a list of requirements/recommendations to run DoW2. A laptop that is affordable and can run these with relative ease would be amazing. I used to be a little more computer savvy but that was really only with desktops and the newer generation computers just confuse me

Best affordable yet reliable laptop for a new grad student?

I’m about to start a Ph.D. program, and I’d like to invest in a good laptop that will carry me through the 4 years.

It also needs to be compatible with various programs, such as SAS. Any suggestions?

Thanks a bunch for your advice!! =)

What are some good laptops for a student?

Hey! I’m going to 8th grade this september, and I really want a new laptop. My old lenovo is really big and laggy- i got it when i was 9 or 10, and my parents said I could get a new one for a birthday present. Believe me, I’m really not that spoiled. Hence the LENOVO laptop. They just really want to make sure I have everything I need for success in school. And YES I can use it in middle school. For notes, research and stuff. Plus, someone’s always using the family desktop.
It needs to be affordable, but good for web browsing, multimedia projects, and data storage. And, it needs to have good battery life.
I’m neither mac nor pc. I have an iPhone and iPod, but the computers in my house are PC’s.
Mac is really expensive. And the only thing I can probably get is the iPad. But I want more options. Please and thank you.
BTW, affordable =600 and below.

Good, durable notebook/laptop at affordable price?

Basically I need a new laptop because I’m going to be starting college next year. I don’t know much about laptops and what would be the best for a student, but all I know is I will be using it a lot both for work and entertainment. I need something that is great quality and durable but very reasonably priced. Note, however that I won’t be buying something just because it’s cheap. This needs to be a good investment. Anyhoo, if all you experienced laptop users out there could give me advice and suggestions that would be nice. Thank you.

Best laptop for college?

College life, fun…I need advice on which laptop to buy, I’ve done my research in fact I’ve done tons of it. And I have a general idea of what I want/need the laptop to have, but I’m not sure about the best brand, best screen size, most affordable,which is lighter in weight.And that snazzy stuff that counts.

Here’s what I want/need

-17 in or 15.4 widescreen
-Under $1000 or $1200
-I’ll be traveling a lot before school starts so I want it to be light weight, but still have all the components
-I was thinking HP or Dell, MAYBE Mac
-I’ll have music,pictures,videos,general school stuff + more
-A 120 to 160 gb storage [correct me if I'm wrong please]
-Built in web cam if possible
-DVD/CD burner [if that exists on a new model]

I’ll be using it 95% of the time, and I’ll be traveling a lot. So I don’t want it to be super heavy, and oh tips on buying an afforable backpack and accessories for the laptop?

Thanks a lot^^

I’m looking for an affordable laptop that I can play World of Warcraft on but can also use for art and photoshop.

Looking for an affordable laptop mostly for gaming, also for school.?

I need to get a laptop for school and I see it as a chance to branch into PC gaming, (I own all next-gen consoles and buy a new game atleast once a month to give you an idea of my addiction). Price wise, I’m looking around 1500. I’ve been looking at the Toshiba A305 Satellite customized w/ Intel Duo T9300, 4 gb memory, ATI HD 3650…
I dont know how benificial it is to have 2 hard drives or having either more than 120gb. Im not going to keep music on it past getting it onto my zune, (thats right, screw apple). And Im not going to go buy 50 games and play them all at the same time.
Which brings my final concern- I need to know that the system I have will run the games I play, smooth. I want to get the StarCraft 2 if that ever comes out and I dont want to have to worry about buying a new pc if it does in a couple years. Other games are or like the Witcher, WoW, Tabula Rasa, Hellgate: London.
If Im asking for too much for too little, or not even the right questions, please inform me!

Affordable laptop for gaming and recording?

So im about to get my first job and ive decided I want to save up for an awesome laptop. I will be using it for gaming (Minecraft, Ems and Roms), youtube, music, work, downloads, etc. The game I will be playing the most is Minecraft. It might seem like it doesn’t need much Ram but it’s quite the contrary. We have a Dell XP5 420(or XPS not sure. Whichever one is the desktop.), which is supposed to be a really nice and powerful machine from what my uncle said……. Anyways it crashes constantly when playing Minecraft unless I keep all the setting in the game to the lowest possible (I can sometimes push the render distance to Normal). So this worries me because I need a laptop. NOT a more powerful desktop. I am aware now that our desktop might not have much ram (which I think is rediculous considering the price). It also runs on Vista which makes matters worse. So ive done some research and I know that a 64 bit laptop is just too expensive. So I need a 32 bit, atleast 4gb of ram quad core laptop capable of handling minecraft and any mods that I want to throw at it, and I want to get into recording gameplay. Great multitasking is a must. So it obviously needs to be very well rounded. Anything 800$ or under would be great. That would only be 3-4 months of saving which I think I can do. Any 64 bit laptop would take 6-8 months which is rediculous. I could use some tips from more experienced gamers who play Minecraft maybe, and know all the different goodies on the inside that make a laptop capable of handling all these things. I don’t know much about laptops, just what I need from one, so please don’t be harsh lol. Thanks!
@Scott Thank you for the super fast reply. So do you have this laptop? The price is great. And it looks like it has 6gb of ram right?
@Scott Thank you for the super fast reply. So do you have this laptop? The price is great. And it looks like it has 6gb of ram right?
@Scott Thank you for the super fast reply. So do you have this laptop? The price is great. And it looks like it has 6gb of ram right?
@Jay Ess Thanks. But that laptop just doesnt have enough ram if it is a 64 bit. If im going to decide to get a 64 bit i want more ram. Paragraphs? Really? Don’t be a Prick.

Where can I find a gaming laptop that’s affordable?

I’m looking for a laptop to take to school that I can use for gaming and school stuff. I’m thinking I want either a Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, or Core i7. I need atleast 4 gigs of ram, and a 250 gb hard drive will suffice. I also need a 1920 x 1080 screen (full hd res) and a blu ray player. Other than that I don’t really care what brand it is or anything. As far as the graphics are concerned, I’d like a 260m or 9700 gts or 4650 hd. I’m open to other suggestions.

Anyway my question is, where can I find cheap gaming laptops (refurbs are ok)? I already checked newegg and tigerdirect so don’t tell me that.
