Hello everyone, I was interested in buying a laptop that I could take to college and home. Because I have to have it portable, desktops are not in the category. I was doing some research and found this laptop that was in the $920-950 range. I don’t need a powerhouse, just something I can casually play on. Because of my studies at college, I cannot play long periods of time anyways. Here was the laptop:

First consideration:

Second Consideration (“newer” version of the above):

3rd Consideration:

I would say other considerations would be the MSI laptops but they range $1000-1200 and I wouldn’t want to spend that much.

If I could get some good answers I would really appreciate it… thank you!

Hi guys I am going to college and was looking for a gaming laptop that would be best for this game as well as portability. I would build my own gaming PC, but I have to have something portable. With gaming laptops, as far as I understand, the battery life is usually pretty bad.

Here was the laptops I was looking at. Price isn’t an issue, but I want a laptop under $1300 if possible.

Another up for consideration is a MacBook Air. The 13 inch model with a i7 processor with 8GB of RAM is around $1249. It also comes with a 128GB SSD. The only downside is that it has Intel HD 5000 Graphics.

With gaming laptops is there a way to make the battery last? Is there any docks I can buy so I can game on the go more without having to charge up? Most of them come with a 6C battery.

Thanks everyone for the help!
