I am looking at buying a laptop for gaming what stats should i be looking for

Question

eg ram

Answer 1

Your main concern should be to make sure it has NIVIDIA or ATI graphics instead of integrated graphics. Also around 2 gigs of ram should be fine, also check the games you will be running for what the recommended specs are for running the game.

Answer 2

It can really vary on what type of game your running, but if you want an laptop which can run most games, then you should purchase around these specifications:

Intel® Core™2 Duo - 2.0GHz

2048MB RAM

160GB (Get a decent amount of HD space for your games)

nVidia or ATI

That should be about average which most games will run on.
