Now am on a not too flexible budget, so any suggestions for an affordable Nice gaming laptop?

dino_xiv:
Affordability is relative... Hw much hv u allocated for it & r u willing & able to buy from d US / & Eu.?

lance4luv:
Hey! Make sure it is nothing less than core-i7, you fit manage i5 but i3 is too low for the games that are being produced now. Video memory, 2GB. HDD, 1TB. RAM, 8GB.

meshybizzo:

I just sent you an email.

dino_xiv: Nice - Also wanted to start such a thread... seems there aren't as many Core pc gamers in naija...
Got a new gaming lappy on cyber M., When it arrives i'll get on the train...

Lofx:

Nice Specs. Please may I ask how you are shipping to Nigeria. That's if you are. Purchasing good enough spec has been a challenge for me since my Sony Vaio crashed. Also how long is your shipping optipn and cost. Thanks.

Big.game:

My budget is 80000 ~ $500

Big.game:

dino_xiv:
I'd advise u check 1st'of all in naija... Or If you know sm1 returning buy it & ship to their add.
'Cos shipping would increase your costs considerably.
Also Check on sites like logicbuy newegg & co. For the best deals
When I bought mine the discounts covered about half the shipping price to d Naij.

Edit: if u're comfortable with tech jargon...

ravensckar: ACER Aspire 531 (GT 710m)? ...PES2013, FOOTBALL MANAGER can spoil d graphics wit tym.

dino_xiv:
All machines wear out wit tym ...ur graphics processor shouldn't be any diff.

i used to own a radeon hd 4250 4gb in my old laptop....a useless GPU.
but now i use nvidia gt 635m 2gb is 80% better than the above hd 4250 4gb vga

chidi2pus:
About to build a PC gaming rig

I sold my ps3 and opted for PC gaming cause

1. PC gaming graphics with a beastly graphics card does outshine even the ps4 by miles away

2. Heard ps4 doesn't support DLNA , so WTF ? I just don't have a gaming thirst !!! I want media satisfaction too

3. Price of console games. During my ps3 era, I did buy the games ranging from 8-12k ....let's say in a year,buying up to 10 CDs is nothing less than 100k !!!! Games which I could easily have downloaded for free on PC.


I don't know if the ps4 will be hacked for free games but with PC I can definitely get all cracked games for free.


Already ordered the PC parts from amazon and below are the specs



Intel i5 4670k
8gb ddr3 ram
MSI gtx 780 lighting 3gb DDR5
ASUS maximum gene mother board
1 TB hdd
120 ssd

With these specs I'll be taking on next gen game titles with ultra graphic settings @1080p 60+ FPS

Already downloaded battlefield 4 and call of duty ghosts on my laptop so now I wait

swagifted:
pls how much does it cost you total?

Akdamola:

pls how much can i get this system.

swagifted:
yes it can...but you have to scale it down to 720p to reach 30fps on most new games...to attain over 30fps on 1080p ...most new games demand over 2GB in dedicated memory...kick ur RAM to 8GB tho..

KingMEXX:
Yea, except for the Fifa 15( doesn't guzzle up much power though), some of the latest 2014 and 2015 would be played at lower screen resolution.. but its not that bad..It still handles the games well...Would be going for a standard mouse soon, to support my gaming life, don't wanna destroy the touchpad

StoneColdGamer:
HEY GUYS...........I just built this rig, Check this spec out:

Intel Core I5-2550 @3.3Ghz (boost to 3.6Ghz)
4GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 Ram
Seagate Barracuda 750 GB HDD
Coolermaster 550W PSU
NVIDIA GTX 660 Ti 2GB DDR5 Graphics Card
INTEL DQ67SW Motherboard

Playing on a 27 inch IPS Monitor (cos I couldn't get a TN Panel monitor here in Naija) still looks so gorgeous. Thinking of adding a 128GB SSD soon, but believe you me, this rig is a beast as it runs ANY game I throw at it @1080p.
