dumah 17 Posted August 5, 2012 Acer Aspire 7750 AS7750-6458 should run it fine, it's under 600 bucks. I would recommend buying a desktop so it can be upgraded later though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I run Arma the gameplay is delayed, like I'll turn to the right and it will take 5 seconds to process. Is this the graphic cards problem? should I upgrade it?

z-layrex 175 Posted August 5, 2012 If money's tight just build a desktop, you will get so much more for your money. Guys who game on laptops usually have money to burn! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kieon 0 Posted August 5, 2012 I just bought a HP pavilion M6-1035dx from best buy for 649.99 it does have AMD Quad-Core A10-4600M Accelerated Processor with AMD Radeon HD 7660G graphics. and it runs arma2 really well so far i mean of course its not a gaming laptop but i think for the price its pretty good.

Guys who game on laptops usually have money to burn!I game on a laptop now, and I definitely don't have money to burn. I don't have anywhere to put a desktop anymore, so it wasn't an option. I would have built a new desktop if it was possible. I needed a new laptop and got one recently, but it isn't a gaming laptop, just one that can play games. I'm not trying to argue with you. I get what you meant. I just wanted to put it out there that not everybody is sporting an Alienware or Digital Storm, etc.As for the thread, I'm not the biggest Dell fan, but they do have last year's models and some refurbs on the site with discrete graphics and 2nd gen. i5 or i7 CPU's. You might find a deal there. Most other manufacturers have a clearance section or refurb section, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
