Probably a 600USD budget. Doesnt need massive ram for now. Atleast a 2.0core, and an ATI card since I have yet to see a geforce chipset used in a laptop besides the ion netbook. I dont give a damn if its from walmart. I just want it to play mostly source games, but if it can run new stuff like MW2, that be nice. I do not want a desktop, I have no room for it in my room lol.

Lag is an internet issue. If the hardware can hold it on medium, then its obviously an internet issue. I aint looking for a pc that can play everything on high.

closest suitable lappy to your budget, your best off with a desktop.
you already have a netbook anyways.

I'm getting this one. It seems every laptop under 1 grand has a ati 3200HD. It has 4.0 hardware, and it will be fine for my TF2/ other source sexing. This one I just posted has a card reader, and the core is only .1 less.

Imo, this is worth your "under $600" budget.

A dedicated gfx card means It can be removed right? If so, this would be good. Then I could change it later.

But the thing is, a friend is living with me shortly and space is of the essence. I do not have room for a desktop period.

Protips:
HD3200 sucked, trust me i have one, barely play TF2/HoN on medium setting, choke like shit during massive rockets

Dedicated laptop graphic cards are dedicated laptop graphic cards for laptop, no changing.

Oh fuck shit meng, i was playing MWII on my asus G1 (one with the 8600mGT, 2.4C2D) on 1650x1050,all low setting, game still have few shutter on Derail, and Afghan, i have to lower my resolution to 1650x1024 to make it somewhat playable during those maps.

Don't use it as "lap"top,

Anyway, go for Yaoi's choice, it is has somewhat the best price/ratio atm

You are funny man. Them alienwares are the biggest waste of money ever. Gaming pushes on the gfx most in most cases. The only games the seem to have low graphic need and mostly cpu rape, is source games. I do not give a damn if games play on full settings. Medium is more than fine. I'm buying that one yaoi posted unless someone can top it. But since yaoi's link has a dedicated card, my requirements for it have gone up to having one.
