I got my son one from dell outlet last month, i3 500gb decent Radeon graphics card, plays cod, FIFA, minecraft etc all fine was just over 300 quid. Might be worth a look,

They have this one currently that looks good value, these are certified refurbs, my sons was like new, 12 months warranty too

You need one with the ATI dedicated graphix and not the onboard intel crap

Plays even the new games albeit a tad slow on the fps

you can pick em up on fleaby around £`150
