Looking For a New Laptop
Hi Guys
Am looking for a new laptop for my son for Christmas (and me don't tell him).
He will need it for school work and gaming so powerful and a good graphics card a must.
I can stretch to £800 if I need to.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers David
When you say gaming, what games in particular did you have in mind?

Similar spec to what I'm after... best I've seen is the HP Envy model.

1TB HDD

Cheers mate will have a look.
Yeah, dedicated graphics card is a major consideration. Also if you can get one with a downgrade option to Windows 7 you might want to!
Graphics card performance comparisons are here:
