    The graphics aren't very good. What kind of games are you looking to play?

    Depends on your budget and how well you want the games to run. That laptop will run games, but not very well with those graphics (imo). Dell have some great gaming laptops, but they're expensive (compared to budget laptops).

    How much are you looking to spend?

    I've decided to splash out and buy this one:
    http://www.buy4now.ie/galaxy-computer/ (sorry the link wont go directly to it)

    Is it good value for money at 1700 euro?
    Also, is this store legit?

    Store is legit. Specs look good for gaming. Certainly will play HL2 without a bother.
