$500 Budget Laptop

[BrandonLoessy]

I'm a college student with a budget of $500 and cant go anymore over that. I've been looking everywhere for a decent laptop with a good cpu and gfx that will allow me to play some casual games like World of Warcraft/FIFA 14/Dark Souls 2 on medium to high settings without lag. Honestly the laptop is supposed to be for schooling but its always nice to get some casual gaming in and also I will most likely use Fruity Loops so a good cpu is definitely needed. Any suggestion will be very much appreciated. Most of the laptops I have looked at were Leveno Thinkpads but I cant seem to find one that seems right so please help me out here! Thank you in advance for any post.

To play high on those games is pretty hard but medium is possible.

Hers a list for you to choose from.

Get a Dell Latitude 3540 (Latitude 15 3000). Just make sure it has the i5-4200U CPU and the AMD Video Card (AMD 8850m).

Here is the Notebookcheck review: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Dell-Latitude-3540-Notebook.105885.0.html

The i5 and the 8850m are the best combination at that price, with the i5 being the most helpful with the Fruity Loops, moreso than any i3 and AMD APU.
