It can play all of them except the L4D games.
No it should be able to handle at Left 4 Dead 2 on lesser settings, Left 4 Dead 1 on maybe even high settings.

I could run L4D1 pretty well on great settings on an AMD Athlon 3500+ 2.2 GHz single core, 2GB RAM and 8600GT.

Well by requirements it said 3ghz

3 GHz if you have a single core.

Dual core 2.0 GHz should run it fine.

Ok, then I guess it can run all of them
Edit: Should play ARMA II fine on lower settings, right?

^Hey
Forget it, some guy on youtube made a video on low settings with a pretty bad processor but everything was moving smoothly

Would this be good deal?
Or
this?
If not, instead of saying it's stuff find a better one for a reasonable price

pretty damn cheap laptops.
but gateway? i didnt even know they existed still  :/

I'm only looking because I have an old P-Series

There is a Gateway P 7805u FX Edition which is the same except the processor does 2.26Ghz but sacrifices Hard drive space.
(320GB)

Search "Alienware" on Craigslist. You can find some great deals there. I got the M17 (2008 model) which runs Tf2, Gmod, Half-Life 2, and Just Cause 2 on high settings, no lag. I got it for $800. It was $1800 when the seller bought it. :D (well, TF2 and Gmod will lag a little when playing online, so you sometime have to do medium settings, but whatever; it's an amazing laptop for 800.)

Get something that isn't a gateway.

This friend won't say what kind of processor it has.


Get an Asus g50vt-x5, just ordereded me one yesterday. Things are freakin amazing, for a laptop.
