    Here you go little over the budget i would say too much ram but if you can change it from 16gb -> 8gb im sure it will reach 600. Check the one in Blanchardstown sometimes there are laptops that's not advertised on the website.

    for 600:

    -minimum i would go for is A10 AMD or i5 Intel processor.
    - atleast 8gb ram
    - 750gb or above HDD
    - decent graphics card

    Depends what you mean by 'light gaming'. Stuff like Minecraft, CS:GO, World of Warcraft will run on that laptop linked above.

    Stuf like Battlefield 4/Hardline, GTA V, Far Cry 4 and almost all other new games will not run on that laptop even on low settings.

    This is a much better buy. Will run all the games mentioned above twice as well as the above for a few euro more.
