    Hey guys,

    Im an avid gamer. Have a massive pc set up that Ive spent a couple of grand on, but my girlfriend likes to play aswell. We have a laptop but its not powerful enough anymore. I don't want to spend a fortune on this, Im wondering if there is a good gaming laptop for around 700 euro? Preferably 15 inch screen - 17 inch.

    Thanks :)

    If you can up the budget a little to 800 euro, it should get you a machine with an 860m GPU, probably a laptop based on a Clevo chassis as the mainstream manufacturers (MSI, Gigabyte, Asus, Alienware) run into 4 figures. So, something like this or this

    One word of caution - the 860m comes in two variants, the older Kepler and the newer Maxwell architecture:

    Make sure you know which version you are getting. You can also see benchmarks for the 860 in the above link.
