Just want some opinions

[Zinjan]

I'm going to alaska to work for the summer and I don't want to take my desktop with me so I'm looking for a laptop to play some single player games and such.

I was wondering if this is a good value for for a mediocre laptop

What kind of "singleplayer" games are you talking about?

A lot of them have high graphics fidelity, a GT 640 will only be able to run new-ish singleplayer games at medium settings.

Im not look for the performance i get out of my 680 i just wanna be able to run Company of Heroes 2, Dead Island, M&M heroes 6, ect with at least 30fps at low settings

Should run your games more than fine, looks like a solid GPU: http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-...M.71579.0.html

There is a slightly cheaper alternative with more compact size (15.6" 1366x768 resolution) and weaker CPU/RAM but it makes up for all that with a more powerful GPU (GT730M) which would translate to better game performance:

A GT730M running a game at 1366x768 would easily destroy a GT640M running at 1600x900 - but that depends on how much of a deal breaker the screen/resolution is for you and how "portable" you want it to be.

Both are good value. Have fun in Alaska
