Hi guys,

Hoping someone might be able to help me. Looking to get a new laptop and thought I'd spoil myself a little. The main thing though I really want to play TS2014 without juddering all the time.

I have spotted a laptop I like and I would wonder if somebody who is knowledgeable on both areas (laptop and the game specifications) would just take a quick look at the laptop spec and tell me if it would be good enough to run the game smoothly

The link to the laptop is below:

Any advice would be great. Thanks

It has shared graphics which all though will be ok with some games, I wouldn't recommend it. You want to be looking for dedicated graphics. I'd also stay away from high street shops as you will pay more of a premium for it.

You can get a very nice machine for less at places like PCspecialist.

Not a full size screen, and processor probably isn't going to be good enough.

IMHO a desktop machine would be better for gaming as you'd get more for your money and are more upgradable than a laptop.

However this Lenovo Y510p is a pretty good gaming laptop for the price.
