HoTS laptop

[Jutath]

So this may be in the wrong forum but I figured start here. I'm looking for a sub $500 smallish/light laptop that can run HoTS for the work trips and random jaunts out to visit friends/family back East. Anyone have any good suggestions?

It's the old SC2 engine, so a quick processor, 8GB Ram and enough SSD space to install both Win 10 and HotS should give a decent game experience. Number of cores and type of the graphics adapter are less important.

Here a list of notebook GPUs and the performance they will allow:

But please check your connection in some games before you go full ranked play. Ironically I had a pair yesterday who disconnected all the time claiming it was some hotel wlan...
