Ya I have a desktop computer that plays it just fine because I upgraded the motor and the graphics card. But looking for a laptop to play on if i do not want to sit at my desktop.

God I wish my computer had a motor!

Sorry I couldn’t resist.

As for the laptop you found…if you can’t spend over 500 on a laptop and want to play Guild Wars 2 on it, don’t expect much in the performance department. An A8 at 1.9Ghz, I question how well that would run even in normal PvE.

If you’re a fan of WvW and large DEs then this may not be enough to be considered playable (15fps) in these more intense situations.

As others have said, I think your best bet is to get an A10 at a decent clock and ditch a dedicated graphics card to make sure you stay under the 500 dollar budget.

Ya its a V8!!!!!!

Well there is this one. for $500 would it work do you thing?

Ok I am wanting to get a new laptop because mine has gone to crap. I fix one thing something els happens it wasnt working for GW2 anyways so oh well.

So i am looking at getting this other laptop but i do not want to get a 500 to 1000 laptop i just do not have the money. I see one that i think might work but i just do not want to get lag and horrible graphics because i got a cheap computer.
