    Hardware Gaming Laptop Suggestions.

    Hi guys,

    I've got a friend looking for a gaming laptop budget of £1200 max. His main games are on STEAM such as ARK.

    Any personal recommendations before i look online at the usual places.

    cheers

    Take a look at these in case they are any good, I find these Outlet discounts to be good:
    Alienware
    XPS

    Until June 10th you should be able to get another 12% off using code DO12HOME and if you use Top Cashback you can get another 1.05% cashback. You might want to consider the warranty extensions depending how much they are as the laptop is so expensive and most parts are integrated onto the mobo so if something goes on that it'd cost you a fortune to repair otherwise.

    cheers guys.
    He's currently got a Republic of gamers i7 thats about 5 years old. Ive already replaced the lcd panel and the dc jack.

    Usual story though, moans about it being slow but wont acknowledge that he's playing online, with a wireless gaming mouse, itb hdd, over wifi against people with hard wired desktop pcs with top end gpu's and ssd's.
