Best gaming laptop for R14k - R16k
Posted: 30 Jan 2016, 22:37
Hello, I’m looking to buy an affordable gaming laptop for about R15 000. I would like to do some light gaming on it and also possibly have the option to connect it to my 50 inch HD screen, I know running such a large screen could be taxing for the GPU especially on gaming but I would like to have the option especially for movies.
Does anyone have any suggestions of any laptops I can look into; the ones I’ve been looking at are the following. Any other suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated
1. Lenovo y5070:
This seems to be my favorite option but some reviews about screen brightness and slow speed have me on edge
Pros: quad core i7 4720hq compared to other laptops of similar price with i5 4210m
Pros: Nvidia gtx860m 4G compared to other models of similar price only having a nvidia gtx950m 2g
Cons: 15.6” screen compared to 17.3
Cons: 1Tb HD 5400 compared to other products of similar price with
2. Gigabyte p17f v3
Pros: 17.3 inch screen
3. MSI Leopard pro GP62 – 2qf
