    Need help getting a new laptop

    Hello. I thought about getting a new laptop for school, and some casual gaming when am not home. It would be nice if Word or Office or w/e is included in the deal/price.

    The amount of cash ill use is not much($800-$900), but it should give something OK.

    Update: WoW,D3,BF3,CoD - Anything that can run them higher then Low is ftw.

    Thx.

    It will be easier to help if you specify what kind of games you are looking to play and the performance you expect from them.
    Also if you would be kind to add the budget in Euro/Kroner.

    While we're here, I've noticed it asked many times.

    ARE there laptops with decent graphics (geforce 660m) that are not i7 cpu?

    I just bought a Asus g75 from komplett.no for 9995.- and that works well for gaming. 660 gfx card, i7 and 8gb ram, not an SSD tho so I bought one and after installed myself, and now I'm in a world of trouble to swith Win 8 from the hdd to the new ssd since I didn't burn recovery discs

    Yes there are.

    However the i5, i7 and such model names are a bit confusing for laptops. For example the Intel® Core™ i7-3517U Processor is a Dual core CPU with HT.
