Hello everybody!
I am looking to buy a new laptop and I was hoping for suggestions from some of the more hardware savvy members of this forum.
My current laptop (about 2 years old) has very poor performance in terms of gaming and I was looking for a superior substitute. The laptop doesn't need to be a beast (I'm fine with sticking to low/medium rendering settings), but it should be able to play games smoothly (SG in particular ). I really don't know very much about computer hardware so simple terminology is appreciated. I don't want to spend a ridiculous amount of money on it (less than $1500-2000), and it should be good value. It should also definitely not be a desktop (because I'll be using it for school as well).
I would go to the Futureshop or Best Buy websites (as I have before) but I really don't know what I'm looking for, so duping me into buying something crappy would be really easy.
Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance!
