Avoid relying on a dedicated GPU and a slow CPU. This laptop won’t help much in gaming.

Check out the same deal at a lower cost, with superior speed and ample space for future upgrades.

You don’t just jump into PC gaming. That laptop is terrible, man—better save a bit more. Spend around $280 on a solid processor and motherboard, like an FX-8350 (170$), and an MSI 970 ATX AM3+ (100$), and you’ve already covered your two-core components for the same amount.

It’s close, but it’s really hard to convince. Honestly, you should save your money—you’ll need cash for games too.

Hello. It's great to hear your interest in PC Gaming. Do you actually need a laptop? A desktop setup can give you more performance for the same budget. However, 300$ isn't sufficient for any goal you have. Around 500$ would allow you to assemble a decent beginner system.

He’s excited about the new PC setup and asked for some components to be arranged. I helped him with what I got, though he mentioned he might swap the 960 for the 970. It’s the most affordable option I found that supports most games.

I need a laptop since I’d be able to carry it when I wasn’t at home. From what people are saying, I’ll save a bit more and get a desktop instead. Thanks everyone for your support now—do I want Windows 8 or 10?
