laptop for christmas

[Calikid 5,000+ posts]

price range is prolly under 800

if u are going to play games on this laptop the best thing to make sure it has is a good GPU. Many of the new games requires the GPU to have at least 64 mb of memory or more, so just make sure you have a GPU with a video memory of 64 or more, GPU is also called Video card in case u didnt know.

$800 for a gaming laptop isnt much. You would get a much better desktop for gaming with only $800

You could look for a used dell 9300, and put a geforce go 7800gt in it.

Newegg is the shit, stick with them.

or find some coupon codes for dell. If you time it right, you can score some killer deals that way.

tigerdirect is actually a good place to shop at, sometimes having better prices than newegg.

ive just read horror stories about TG, so i would buy from them.

I think they are sort of like indoaudio, lots of people use them with no problems, but when they do fukk up (and its semi-often), its real bad.

Pretty much newegg is the shiz.. great service, returns, prices, fast shipping. Its worth the xtra $1or2 to buy from newegg when they arent the cheapest.

lol

been shopping there since 03 and i have not had a problem with them and i have never heard any complains about them, so i dont know where have you been reading these so called horror stories.

lol wouldnt buy from them.

honestly none of it was real recently, but it was rebate scams (never sending them out) and giving these 'free calling card' things that if you used them once enrolled you in some recurring monthly plan at like $30 a month.

google tiger direct scam and i bet you find some shit.

If you like them good for you, personally i just use newegg.
