Since when did laptops became something weak.. I myself havent used an desktop in about 8 years now and spending 600 euros every 3 years gives you always a laptop thats ableto handle the top of the games if you know what you are doing smile

#playing crysis 3 on max with 50 fps with an 2-year old laptop which costet 650 euros at the time smile


How about the issue on overheating? My laptop overheats 3 hours when playing a game that it could handle. Can you give me a general idea what to buy, what brand to buy and whatnot? My budget is around $900

I don't generally consider laptop weak. It's just due to the issue of overheating. I've been using my laptop for 5 years already, but I'd like to change the games I could play therein.

I'm using desktop to play games most of the time, but I'd like to go mobile.


Hm.. yeah.. overheating depends ALOT on what brand you buy. The problem is i cant really advice anything except for simply looking around your pricerange, look at processors and GPU's .. find out which ones are the best possible within the pricerange and then find a laptop that has both :P
Unless i have several laptops to compare to any direct questions i wouldnt be able to say anything

(do make sure it has an nvidia gpu and i7 cpu (minimal :P) .. people like AMD because of the price but AMD has also an reputation of having very slow driver updating making the fps at games that are less then 3 months old.. weak..)

I myself try to buy from reasonably lesser-known companies that mostly custom-make their laptops. Last one i bought was at a dutch company called BTO ... atm they arent really getting the newer laptops but at the time i bought it, it had all components that a high-end laptop had, but because they bought all pieces seperate and made it theirselfs it was kinda cheap.


heating problems.. yes, i have had heating problems but only during the mid of summer. I solved it by making the feet under my laptop a little bigger so that there is more space underneath my laptop.. aside from that i also have a nice fan on my desk that blows air underneath the laptop :P (also great for cooling down myself)

Atm i dont need it because its still only like 15 degrees here, but since my laptop runs at 150% of what it should (overclocked the shit out of it :P) it might need the fan again once it gets 30 degrees in my room :P
