So I'm going to buy a new laptop, I don't know which one I should get
I've been thinking of this http://bit.ly/OCqFM3 Vaio laptop, it seems very cool. But I'm not sure if I should get it or another one. What do you think?



Note:
Don't say things like "dassasasas get a desktop u idiot they r better faaag" simply because I don't want a desktop, in my house there is already a desktop but it is for everyone to use (my parents, etc) and there is no more room in my house for another desktop.
I also don't plan to go hardcore gaming on this, probably just Minecraft and RS every now and then, probably GTA VC and SA too. I'll mostly use this for the things I do every day and school work.

TL;DR
Should I get a different LAPTOP?

The graphics card is nVidia so that's very good, especially just for normal now and then gaming. The processor speed is average for a laptop, and of course - Gotta love Windows 7.

How ever the small 13.3'' screen is kind of sad, but over all:

It's a good laptop to get.

No, don't buy it. The base options on that aren't work $1,000. I've never seen a $1,000 laptop only have a 500GB HDD. I would buy a Samsung or Asus laptop if I were you.
This is a much better laptop for the price. Double the HDD space, larger screen, more RAM, better processor(4 cores 4 threads vs. 2 cores 4 threads). The GPU is slightly worse but you're only playing Minecraft and RS.

Speed doesn't mean everything. A bulldozer processor at 8ghz doesn't outperform an i7 @ 4.5ghz.

I didn't mean something like hardcore gaming with games like Crysis 2 or Skyim. I was referring that I'd play things like GTA VC and SA, Minecraft, RS and LoL often.

What about the other pc I posted in the post above?

Use it to play Battlefield 3 ultra graphics

OP. Probably a wise investment, it sounds good for the plans of use you have with it.

Yeah if you only plan on running low games as listed above you'll be fine with that setup.
