Built it over time. If you want a machine like that full package then you are going to shell out a lot of money. I jux saw a4th gen i7 going $400 x 4 in ghana cedis. So you can imagine.

I wish to change my monitor to an ips one, but man is it hard to come by one.

Hmmm... thanks for the info, man.

An fps that shows the character is called a tps. An fps means first person shooter, you know, from the character's take on things.

Well the way I see it, it's like buying phones actually. Those buying those very cheap laptops are forced to upgrade every year because the hardware can't keep up. A gaming rig has hardware that will stay relevant at least 3 years post production. Na to close eye buy better one. The money will still be spent on laptops so why not just buy a great one and relax once?

My rig:
ASPIRE V NITRO (Black Edition)
FHD IPS Screen
Red backlit full keyboard with multi touch trackpad
Four Dolby digital speakers and 802.11ac wireless card
Intel i7-4720HQ quad core with OC up to 3.2Ghz
16gb ddr3l ram
Nvidia GTX 960m 4gb


This is what I want to get but the 571 edition. Saw two on Nairaland for sale by buylaptopsinnigeria and docconcepts but their price coupled with the GeForce 840M is killing. Student wey I be I almost wan cry

Konga & Jumia sha:>( they be selling same machine for 247k

Don't buy it. Tell me your budget and Location and I'll get you a link in Amazon that fits into that price plus shipping. These marketers are ripping us off in Nigeria

It will play it on low settings at 720p. Anything higher and your frame rates will be terrible.

This config wouldn't help you that much, especially the core i3 CPU and the intel HD graphics. I'd rather you went for something with at least a core i5 CPU, and a decent GPU. Sadly though, you can only afford fairly used core i5 or core i7 laptops with your stated budget.

Hi there @kimco. Have you seen any specific monitors you want? Can you provide me with some models you're interested in (or lusting after grin), or maybe some general specs, I might be able to help you out. Just hoping it's not a 50" monitor wink.

I guess you have a point there. I've not tried using two seperate pads with xbox360ce but unless there's a limitation in the software, using two pads should be pretty straight forward.
