Hi, I hope there's someone out there reading this who may be so kind as to offer their opinion or advice on this Laptop I may purchase in the next few days?
Before I show the spec, the games I would use would be FM2011, Medieval 2 Total War, Call Of Duty 4 Modern Warfare.
Now these games I own but don't run or run poorly on my current Laptop and I was hoping if someone may advise me if the Laptop I have chosen would run these games with no obvious problems and if possible to what degree and if it is likely to last me for years to come as a mid-range gaming laptop?
