Laptop help

[ayla]

Hi guys, would it be possible please if someone could let me know if the following link of a laptop would be ok to play wow, minecraft, ac3 and a few other games.  My technical knowledge on pc's/laptops is almost non-existant - i have to ask people that i trust.  I am on a budget so cant afford a very shiny one, this will be a xmas present for my teenage lad (he's been bugging for a laptop rather than a desktop for ages now).

Im not the best of that but it looks like it would be fine to us it for games and such.
But bad battery only

I'd agree with Mario Looks like a nice little laptop Other than the battery life.. If he's playing games like WoW on it, that would probably decrease even more

Yup it will run everything decently, the only thing that I can see being a problem is that AC3 doesn't have any support for Laptop GPU's, it will run, it just won't be very optimised. However that is a problem you can't get around, the only 'problem' I can see other than the low battery life is the screen resolution, it is 1366x768, which means it isn't HD, but that is personal preference I suppose. You can't really go much either way with laptops and any that are similar priced have similar specs.

I think you have a good price to performance with this one as anything higher gets ridiculously expensive of upwards £800 - £1000
