A while ago I bought a laptop on sale for about 600$ and ever since then I've had nothing but trouble with it, having to send it back 2 times for repairs. Anyways this time the repairs are going to run me about 400$+ for parts and labor (motherboard) so I thought that I might as well get a new one and I wanted you guys opinion. I'm not willing to spend over 500$ (well a little over...) but if you have any other recommendations feel free to post them. The ones I was really thinking about getting are http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834107028 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834146534 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834115556 The acer looked the best to me and the reviews were pretty good but I wanted you guys opinion. |

The Lenovo G530 is NOT for gaming. Seriously, you can only do basic tasks with this laptop, seeing as how it's part of Lenovo's "value line" of laptops. The Acer Aspire at TigerDirect has a better processor and a video card that has dedicated memory, for $499. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4545456&csid=ITD&body=MAIN#detailspecs The Compaq one has pretty low RAM. |
