Hello there guys. Right, so Christmas is coming up soon and I've finally picked which Laptop I want my parents to buy. It has took a while because these days its hard to find a decent Laptop with specs for a 500 budget. But anyway, the question is; does anyone know a website that will tell me if the laptop i want will run a specific game without me actually having the laptop in my possession? and before you say "Laptops aren't for gaming" or "You need to spend at least 1000 for a good gaming laptop." I already know this, I don't intend on run high-end games just low detailed ones.
-Thanks in advance

:2thumbsup:

Well if your laptop doesn't have a dedicated graphics card then you wont be able to play games except ones like minecraft with lag.

My 10 year old sister's netbook can play minecraft without lag, and that was 150 pounds.

i spent 600 on a i5 samsung laptop and play mw3 online on steam as well as skyrim only has 4 gigs of ram and a nvivda 350 soo gaming on a laptop for a decent price is easily do able you can go too the game devs site and usually they have a guide to what hardware will work for their game.
