I have a budget of €500 and I am looking for a gaming laptop. I saw a second hand Lenovo Y510p(i7-4700mq, 16gb RAM, Dual GeForce GT 755m SLI) for sale on eBay and I am considering buying it. Are there any other more powerful gaming laptops for €500 that I could pick up second hand online(or new if possible) that will deliver better gaming performance. This laptop is quite old so I don't know how it will fare on newer titles.
 
in short for that price point no your not going to be able to find anything new and you would hardly even get a decent gaming desktop for that much, used on the other hand you may be able to find a used one but again you run the risk of it being total shit or not taken care of

now if you give me some more info on what you want it for i can look around for a cheap one that may be able to get the job done
 
I'm looking for something that can run titles like Fortnite, Overwatch, Skyrim, Titanfall etc in 1080p on medium settings with at least 50-60fps and possibly more demanding games like PUBG on 1080p low 40-50fps or 720p if necessary, has a 1TB HDD, 15.6" Screen, windows 10. The laptop I listed above seems pretty good but I'm not sure how well it can run these games and apparently it doesn't have great cooling.
 
no gaming laptop has great cooling when not on a desk due to limited space in housing and blower style cooling for that price point you wont find any new unless on a great sale the one that you mentioned for the price your paying i think that would be one of the best you can get but beware make sure they aren't trying to scam you because it had different models with a single gpu and a i5
 
Would there be any PC of the same Calibre as the one I mentioned that I could pick up, second hand for the same price that doesnt have SLI? I've heard there are many issues with SLI that you cause you to have to use only one graphics card in games that don't support SLI, which leads to lower frame rates.
