You can't buy any laptop for that price. Not even the lowest end. You will be looking at like $399+ for the low end. If you want a solid laptop to play the game. You need i-3 at the bare minimum, and i-5 preferably. But i-3's work, just depends on the rest of the specs. But you will be looking at around $450 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intel i-3, i-5, i-7 is the processor. Which is the most important thing, especially with gaming. You also want one with RAM between 4-8. 8 isnt a must, but 4 should be the bare minimum.

Would that be good for FM14 what is the Ghz of the processor? Norton and all that fluff they throw in there should get uninstalled instantly. 13.3" screen is a bit on the small side. 6gb ram is quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heliu5 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 If you want a 15.6 inch laptop with an Intel i5 processor, you'll have to pay around 450 pounds. With an i3 processor you can find it cheaper. I will list you some options I found on Amazon (all include free shipping to the UK): Intel i5 processor: - Lenovo G580 15.6 (459.99£): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lenovo-G580-15-6-inch-Laptop-Brown/dp/B00CTM6OG6/ref=zg_bs_429886031_5 Intel i3 processor: - ASUS X550CA 15.6 inch (375.27£): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-X550CA-15-6-inch-Notebook-Silver/dp/B00E37N5NU/ref=zg_bs_429886031_31 Intel® Core™ i3 processor500GB S-ATAII 5400rpm Hard Drive 6GB DDR3 RAM at 1600MH Windows 8 (64-bit) Operating System Includes Norton Internet Security and 9 additional software titles 13.3" HD LED (1366 x 768) Touch Screen Display Up to 6.7 Hours Battery Life. Would that be good for FM14 FM can run on any PC but how fast depends mainly on the processor. When you are on a budget and can't afford a laptop with a dedicated graphic card then you are best off with the better processor within your budget. With up to 300£ you can buy only laptops with Intel's Pentium or Celeron processors which are not that good. If you can afford around 75-100£ more, you can buy a good 15.6 inch (bigger and more enjoyable screen than the laptop you listed has) with an i3 processor which will be good for FM (within that budget). If you are determined to buy a new laptop I strongly recommend looking and asking around more, first in the new laptop thread here and then on dedicated laptop forums such as notebookreview.com.
