Build Your Own Gaming Notebook
Any good gaming notebooks that don't look completely ridiculous?
I'm going to be heading off to college soon and the laptop I previously had bit the dust. Because the laptop needs to last several years, I'd like one that encompasses my educational commitments and recreational interests (music, video games, movies, etc.). I would love a laptop that can fluidly play games like Mass Effect 1 and 2 fluidly (they don't need to have "ULTRA REALISTIC MUSCLE SHADOWING!!", but I would at least like them to look decent an run smoothly). I would also like a screen size around the 15" mark, if possible. One of the laptops I've really been looking at is the Toshiba P500 Satellite. I know the screen is 18", but I've read several reviews that say it is good for a desktop replacement at college. On Toshiba's website, there is the option to cusomize the P500 with a "NVIDIA® GeForce GT 330M with 1GB GDDR3 discrete graphics card". Is this a good graphics card to play games with? I was also going to go ahead and get the i7 Processor as well. Do you have any other, possibly better, suggestions? The biggest thing I want to steer away from, though, is a notebook that looks completely ridiculous in a classroom or dormitory setting. None stupid paint jobs or dumb chassis designs most gaming notebooks have. I know these are a lot of questions, and I appreciate your answers!

- Hmmm as your requirement is not that high I will suggest that you should not go for a very high amount to invest in purchase of a laptop.
Instead of that I would suggest that you should check out some of the refurbished laptops which is really nice and great too so I will suggest that you should go for or at least have a refurbished laptops which is really excellent.
