Recommend me a laptop for playing League of Legends for under £400 please
>1080p
>8GB+ RAM
>15.6"+
>A decent dedicated GPU
So far the only one I've found is this, and it's £500

I'm also worried the i3-6100U will bottleneck the FPS hard. The 128GB SSD is also rather trash, 250GB+ is most likely required.
This girl I know wants to get a new laptop to play League, so I'm trying to help her out. But she's poor af and I've never explored low-end hardware so I don't know what I'm doing
Why 1080p. Why 8 gigs. You could get a decent laptop thats 1280x900 or smth with 4 gigs of ram and play that pile of shite of a game on max settings. Or get the 15,6"+ with 4 gigs and 1080p and play on less than ultra. I don't see the problem.

I'm sure her bf will appreciate her new laptop, cuck.
>>61031725
>Why 1080p
Because it's 2x the pixels of 720p and looks a hell of a lot nicer
>Why 8 gigs
So you can use Youtube, Skype and league all at the same time without having to worry about your ram
>>61031745
She doesn't have a boyfriend. Once she gets a laptop she'll be spending evenings at my house after work. Currently it's pointless coming round as I have no xbox/ps, just my single desktop
What's wrong with any of these?

Julst play Heroes 3 on hotseat you dumbass
>>61031782
They don't have dedicated graphics / 1080p screens / only 4GB of RAM
>she gets her laptop from you
>Meets some faggot online through the game
>They start playing together
>They start Skyping in your house
>End up hooking up because he lives fairly close
>They end up fucking on your bed
>She pays rent to your parents so she lives at your house now and has her new guyfriend(s) from the game fuck her in your own home on the regular.
This is the exact scenario that happened to one of my friends who plays that shit tier game. avoid OP.
>>61031817
Sorry yeah, I'm guessing you're base in the UK, because the first link gave prices in pounds. So I checked a few sites and the main problem is the 1080p requirement + screen size. You need to pick one, else it wont ever cost under 400.
>>61031910
I'm not buying her a laptop, just recommending one
I wouldn't let it escalate to that, but even if I did, at least I'd be able to cuddle my bed covers knowing she's been in them
Just get something with 4gb ram and a free ram slot and install another 4gb
>>61032138
Also if possible OP should get one without an opsystem. Those cost munny also.
OP here
What do you think about buying a second hand laptop off ebay? I've never brought used electronics
I've found some powerful 2-4yr old Dell Inspiron SE's for like £200. They have i7-3630QM CPUs and GT 650M GPUs.
I personally would do it, but I don't want the responsibility if it doesn't work, or if the HDD/battery is worn and she needs it replaced
>>61032065
I dont want cucks being auto filled and ruining my game with darius support.
>>61032138
I could do. I do have two 4GB sticks in a broken laptop just laying around. But there's also no computers with recent spec but lacking in RAM. Dedicated GPU is the main problem.
>>61032173
Microjew shills Win10 so hard as standard, it would be difficult to find a laptop without it installed and the licence paid as standard
>>61032235
HDDs and batteries aren't so expensive to be a worry, if the thing is 200.
>>61032260
She is a sup main, she saves you from people getting autofill sup
>>61032260
I mean he has a slow and cc pull so....
>>61032270
True, but it's more having to buy a new HDD, install pirated Win 7, install drivers, check it all works, maybe fuck with drivers a little more, etc etc
W520 if the game is intense, X220 if it isn't. You should be able to find either for pretty cheap on eBay. The W520 is 1080p.
>>61032300
That's maybe an evenings worth of hassle, if you do it together you'd be showing her the ropes and whatnot. That's even assuming the HDD or battery is a bust.
>>61032353
That's true, I've sent her the link and warned her about no warranty etc
It doesn't feel right recommending a laptop that's shit, even if it's the best for her price range
I may even buy that laptop for myself if she doesn't
You don't need a dedicated GPU for league.
My 2012 MBA with a 1.9ghz dual core i5 and 4gb of ram ran that game at 60fps high settings at 900p
I would help search but idk good websites for bongs.
I'll look on your guises amazon though.
>>61031572
Cuck
>>61032527
When was this? There's been graphical updates that make the game significantly more demanding than 2-3 years ago
Women can't be gamers.
>>61032707
Yea they can dumbass. We need someone to kill in our online games, don't we. Or heal us.
>>61031572
you can play LoL with an intel integrated gpu on linux trough wine
t. played lol on igpu on ubunut
>>61031572
>League of Lesbians
Get better taste in vidya first, you shitter
>>61032802
Whilst you can play league at 25 FPS at minimum res on a HD 4000, that's kind of crap
Here's how LOL runs on my 11 year old T60P (estimated retail value: $40)
>>61032838
Read the post again. The laptop isn't for OP.
>>61032065
Ok good stick to that. If she hasn't sucked you off yet then don't by her shit.
>>61034853
bot games are less demanding than 5v5 norms
