Hello!
I bought a game Rise of the Tomb Raider but my laptop or pc can't run it bcs my graphic card doesn't support Directx 11 only 10 I think. And probably it would be laggy if it worked. That's why I'm looking for a gaming laptop that would run it and possibly run Shadow of the Tomb Raider in the future. I don't want to buy too expensive laptop, something under 1000€ or even 800€ (I don't know how much they cost don't kill me). Any ideas?
 
Here in the states, if you can't afford an Acer Predator Helios ($1050), you can get the Dell i7577-5241BLK-PUS Inspiron with same spec for about $110 less, plus it has a long battery run time.

I don't know what country you're in and since UK is the only primarily English speaking area over there, but uses GBP instead of Euros, you're going to have to be more specific to expect any kind of price fetching.

This is one of the few reviews that got the under $1000 gaming laptop roundup right. All others I saw listed ones with lesser GPUs as top picks. The 1060 6GB GPU the Dell has is well worth it, especially at that price.

Note as well, that while ergonomics are very important too, so is cooling, and battery run time. Some laptops are horrible at things like cooling and battery run time. The Dells do pretty well on all that. Plus they have good warranty support all over the world.

 
I live in Slovakia. I was looking at some websites with laptops and they were around 700€-900€. I took a look at the Dell and it seems very good. I looked at this one too MSI GL62M 7RDX-2087CZ. Is that similiar to that one?
 


No, it only has a 1050 4GB vs 1060 6GB.

Keep in mind laptop GPUs are usually clocked lower than the desktop versions of the same model number to deal with heat and power issues laptops have due to running on batteries and having very little space inside. Thus you want to get one with as good a GPU as you can afford..
