Why not buy a nice desktop, for gaming, and a cheap laptop, for portable shit, it will cost around the same thing... |

For WoW, you don't need amazing shit. It's not meant to be a game based off of sick graphics like CoD4 or even source for that matter. However, if you play CoD4 a lot and other games of that nature that require a good set up, Alienware seems a bit over priced even though they do make some good stuff. To be honest, I think you'd be better off building your own desktop to make it fit your needs. There's loads of stuff on the web to search and learn about and I am sure there's many people even on this forum that could lend you a hand. Just do some research online, google "gaming laptop" or something of that nature, or check pc magazines and see their reviews. I guess the only advice I'm saying is, check what games you really want to play and see what they suggest you have for minimum system requirements and go from there. DO RESEARCH! Thats about it, good luck! |

Yeah, but its easier to get a desktop as it does the job better than a laptop. If I was gonna get another laptop, i'd get the dell XPS. |

"He wants a laptop... so saying desktop when its clear he wants a laptop." My advice was to do your research and find out for yourself what fits your needs. Do research on making a desktop b/c it is cheaper and you can tailor make it to your needs. Do research to find a laptop that, at minimum, fits the needs of the games you want to play. If you're going to critique my comments, at least stay on topic by suggesting a laptop for him at the end. Ty |

When the dude has made a second CLEAR post that hes only looking for laptops going on about desktops again does not help all that much. |

Tell me what games other than WoW do you want to play on it. Gaming laptops suck, but is better to find one that is cheap and good for what your going to play. |
