    I have been exploring the laptop route for the last week but mobile tech is alien to me (more of a desktop guy) what would be considered a good budget notebook to handle whats below?

    1. Fallout 3/ new Vegas
    2. CS series
    3. Team fortress
    4. Cod MW series (don't hate I just like shooting things :P)
    5. Original BF 2 and add ons
    6. Farcry 2
    7. Minecraft

    The reason why Iam starting to veer away from a desktop is because I actually have nowhere practicle to put one (currently stuck in a box room in the mothers house with ONE! socket:()

    *EDIT* In terms of specs I would be
    looking for the following:

    Current gen CPU
    Current Gen GPU with 1GB+ dedicated memory
    Min 4GB DDR3 RAM
    Min 500GB storage
    Screen Size 14inch and up

    Would preferably like to order within the EU.
    My budget would be between €450 & €600.

    I just brought this dell, haven't got it yet but should play your games at good setting and it has a 17" screen, asshat? not much of an insult, but maybe as a milliner design, you might see it at the races someday:cool:

    Been exploring PC Specialist myself: http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/laptops/
    Seem to be decent laptops (mostly MSI barebones chassis)

    For that money have a good root on Amazon, laptops with i3/GT840 go for anywhere between 380-500 depending on when you look.
