Question I need help choosing a budget gaming laptop ?

[Dj0gany]

Hi, a friend of mine is moving to USA and he needs budget friendly gaming laptop that will run him League of Legends, CSGO, CSGO 2 when it releases, and other not so demanding games.
Budget is around $600.

Best I was able to track down that is shiny and new, kind of small though:

Amazon is nightmare to search with, they don't have proper categorizations for laptop hardware, or desktop hardware for that matter. Basically have to have a price in mind.

Also back to school time in the US. So a lot of older generation hardware is currently listed at quite low prices. Basically all the unsold hardware that will be supplanted by incoming 13th/7000 series generation hardware. So you might find decent deals at Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc. These will be short term though. Prices fluctuate daily.

It is a bit over the budget, but the prices might fall off so who knows.
Thank you for the recommendation, I think this should be more than enough for his needs, gaming-wise at least, and its aesthetically nice.

About the size of it, he most likely has a big TV in his room so he can hook it up to it, and he will probably buy a gaming keyboard and mouse, so size is not that important.
Specs of it should be more than enough.
Thank you for your recommendation, I will let him know.
