Cheap SB/IB laptops? D:

    So... I've figured my patience knows no bounds, but at the same time, I do need a new laptop ever since my Toshiba A660-149 had a rather unpleasant accident, and I've been using a laptop I borrowed off le mother every now and then.

    The one I'm on now is a Samsung packing an i3 and a without a dGPU and oddly enough I'm fairly alright without it, compared to previous having one with a GT330.
    So I wouldn't mind settling for something for the mean time, since I doubt I'm gonna even be gaming for the next while.

    Are there any cheap enough (sub 500 perhaps?) SB or preferably IB laptops? I can live without a dGPU for the time being, as now I'm reduced to only affording time to play premades on League of Legends every week or so, and it's doing more than fine with the HD 3000.
    In the same breath, I'd like to get back into Starcraft 2 since there's a new season. Not too sure if the HD 3000 does well with that, but graphics quality isn't muchos important :L

    So maybe... An i3 with decent enough clock speed, or an i5? the dGPU isn't really necessary. If there is, I wouldn't mind as long as it's at least akin to the GT330M. RAM and storage I'm generally fine with. I can just toss the old SSD and RAM into the new one. Plus, I don't think Id mind getting a refurb either.
