Buying a laptop...

Postby Kixon98 » Fri Mar 09, 2012 9:04 pm

This is Fujitsu Lifebook AH531 specifications list...
I have been to 3 different forums yet none has provided me with answer...
Is this worth 700 Dollars, if it is, i'll buy it:
CPU: Intel Core i5 2430M [2,40 GHz boostable up to 3,00 GHz]
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GT525M 1GB RAM (working with DirectX 11)+ Integrated Intel HD3000 Graphics(probably won't be using it)
HDD: 500GB SATA (5200 rpm)
RAM: 4GB DDR3
Weight: 2,5 Kg
What are my requirements from this laptop?
I want it to run ALL games, not necessarily on high or even medium if it's something like BF3 but for a game to go smoothly in 30+ FPS. Is that doable with this specs?
Thanks in forward.

No, it's not good.Look for a laptop with at least GT 540m for playing all games(some games still will be only playable @low).

You can find one between '650$-750$.

Could you tell me where i might find that kind of laptop? And also how much RAM is necessary to work with those specs (i5 and GT540M).

EDIT: The best lap i could find with GT 540M in my country has i3 and only 2GB of ram :(

Core i5/4GB/GT 540M.That's what you need to play all games.Can you find Acer Aspire 5755G in your country?
I know it's hard to find a balanced laptop in your country.
However, Core i3 can still do the job if you can't find better.Just tell me which Core i3 model is in that laptop?

OK here is what i found...
Acer Aspire 5755G:
With Core i3 2330m 2.2GHz, GT 540M, 4GB ram costs 478 Euros
With Core i5 2430M 2.4-3.0Ghz, GT 540M, 6GB ram costs 560 Euros
I think thats all i could find and as all other results are with about same specs as i3 2330m one.
Now i couldn't find a reason why these laptops are that expensive but i realised they come with USB 3.0?

EDIT(5 mins after): I found this when searching together i5 and gt 540
Lenovo IdeaPad Z570
CPU: Intel i5 2430M 2.4-3.0GHz
GFX: Nvidia GeForce GT 540M 1GB
RAM: 4GB DDR3 1333MHz
HDD: 750GB

Go with Acer Aspire 5755G or IdeaPad Z570.There isn't much difference, if the IdeaPad is cheaper then go for it.Otherwise Acer is also according to your budget :)

(Acer Aspire has more Ram but IdeaPad has more HDD.However, I think both laptops come with USB 2.0 and none of them is with USB 3.0)
