it will NOT run blockland at max or high, probably barely on medium.
there are no laptops i could find at bestbuy that will offer that kind of performance under 800 bucks
i suggest going the desktop way, or even better, the custom desktop. For 600 bucks you can make a fantastic custom computer.

Are you sure? I have been told otherwise by the people at Geek Squad and Best Buy.

Alright, what about this:
How much would it cost for me to get a gaming computer that can run Blockland and Minecraft well? As in, in Blockland I can see shaders on at least medium or high and see up to 25k bricks without much lag and in Minecraft I can use Normal or even far view distance without too much lag.
This computer can either be a desktop or a laptop, as long as it runs both of these games well. This is as far as I can go.
Being that I prefer a laptop, does anyone here have a gaming laptop that runs both of these games nicely? If so, please post a link to where I can see it and make sure it's at the most $700.
Seriously, anything is better than what I have now. With my current laptop, in Blockland my view distance must always be below 200, I can't see shaders, and I can only view up to 8k bricks without lagging. I can't play Minecraft without lag or choppiness. I have tried turning all settings on low and using optifine and it is STILL choppy.

Just asking, are you willing to assemble a desktop yourself? Making a custom desktop can save you a lot of money. Or do you want to buy an already assembled computer, which would probably have a bit less power?

Sorry, I should have made that clearer, but yeah, I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to computers. I would be better off just buying an already assembled computer.
