Gaming laptop €500 help

[kemperkipie]

I've been out of the laptop hardware for a while and wonder if someone can help me.

I'm looking for a €500 gaming laptop for a friend.
I'm aware that gaming on a €500 laptop is hard to accomplish, but I just need what's possible for this budget.

Are there any brands that have gaming power in this budget?

I'm guessing AMD CPU and GPU are my best shots.

I hope someone can give me some suggestions. I live and will order in the Netherlands.

It's pretty much not gonna happen, either build a desktop with that money or just tell him to pick the laptop based on other benefits (screen resolution, keyboard quality etc).

It's only for playing games like League of Legends or Minecraft. He also has an Xbox 360, so shooters and such will be played on console.

Is there any €500 laptop wint a dedicated GPU?

I don't get the whole reason about getting a laptop for gaming. Is he holding a lan party every second day or what? if not, then its not worth getting a laptop for gaming because they can get up to twice as expensive as desktops and you can't change the hardware in it (maybe the hdd or ssd but nothing else) and don't get me started about the airflow in a laptop. I'm sorry that i can't speceficly answer your question but my best advice is either build your own computer, or buy a prebuild one of you're lazy

Laptop because it's also for school and such.

Gaming because he still wants the play the games I mentioned.

A laptop ánd a desktop is not an option.
