Alexander. Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Mine was £649.99 from Curry's PC World. It's an Acer Gaming Laptop. It was reduced by £199.99, no regrets, and it was a good buy if you ask me.
killamch89 Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 My gaming laptop is also an Acer Nitro Black Edition 2015 which cost me $525 dollars at the time and I also have no regrets.

Nice, from what retailer did you purchase it from? Was it on offer and what are your computer specifications, does it run all of the video games that you want? Seems like a good buy.

I bought it from eBay from a store called Adoroma which is a huge company in the US and yes, it was on sale. It has 8GB ddr4 gtx950m I5-5200 128 nvme ssd with 1tb hard drive space and even though I don't really game on it since I built my desktop, it runs almost every game I play.
DylanC Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 I bought mine from Alienware about 8/9 years for about £800. It’s pretty much a donkey now so I unfortunately don’t use it much except for the odd game of AvP.

Sounds to me like you grabbed a good purchase.

Sounds to me like you grabbed a good purchase. It was an ol' X51 from back in the day (like I mentioned, about 8ish years old). It was 10% off from Dell's Alienware store. Here are the specs off the top of my head: - 1.5gb Geforce GTX 660 - 8gb RAM - 1 TB of storage It's pretty antique now and sometimes crashes, but it was decent at the time.
skyfire Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 I honestly think that as of now 512GB is good enough for me. I don't need the 1 TB storage. I think the enough storage as of now for some of my games. Though each to their own it can be pretty good enough.

To be honest, you could build a great 1080p 60fps gaming machine for around $600 dollars and it could serve you well for a couple of years but more powerful builds require massive investment.
skyfire Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 Yeah today we can get lot better specs and also save a lot more money than in past. I'd say that 600$ for me won't get better laptop but I am going to be spending more in near future if I wish to buy new laptop.

Same here - to get a good enough laptop for gaming, you'll need to spend somewhere in the region of $900 - $1000 minimum for the same 1080p 60fps experience.
skyfire Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 I am currently only looking at two brands, asus and the MSI on that front. unfortunately I can't afford apple.
Empire Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 In total as regards to what I paid is around $3600
