Best VR Ready Gaming Laptop’s in 2017 in UK

Display and sound

GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro can be found on sale both with the usual Full HD display, and with a matrix that gives a resolution of 3840×2160 pixels. It was she who came to us for testing. In principle, at 15.6-inches and 1920×1080 pixels looks very good. And for games in 4K you will have to greatly reduce the graphics settings, because the GTX 1060 is not such a cool video adapter.

The screen itself is not bad. Has good viewing angles, matte finish and high contrast. The flickering of the backlight was not noticed, the coverage of the color standard sRGB is a hair’s breadth from the full. But the color temperature and gamma slightly deviate from the desired values. The uniformity of the backlight, like that of the vast majority of laptops, floats in the range of 8.5%. The refresh rate of the screen is 60 Hz. The display, unfortunately, it does not support NVIDIA G-SYNC technology , which would save you from gaps in pictures in games.

While the display has shown itself almost only on the good side, the audio system leaves much to be desired. Even after updating the drivers, eliminating the conflict with one of the latest updates to Windows 10, the sound was satisfactory, but no more. Of course, there is a high density of components in a thin case that does not leave room for good speakers.

Performance and battery life

MSI GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro is equipped with one of the most common processors among gaming notebooks – Intel Core i7-6700HQ. Visibly better than him among the mobile CPU is only Intel Core i7-6820HK with the unlocked multiplier. What is interesting, Intel Core i7-6700HQ is not much faster than any Intel Core i7-4710HQ, which could be found in the gamers of 2014, but it’s not the fault of MSI, but of Intel. And most importantly, its performance for the chosen video card is enough with a margin. In the CPU benchmarks MSI GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro proved to be no worse than other notebooks with the same CPU.

The protagonist of the review has an adequate amount of RAM, in contrast to some of its sobartev with 32 and 64 GB of RAM. It has two 8-GB DDR4-2400 slats, which means that the “RAM” will not become a bottleneck in the system – read and write speeds exceed 30,000 MB / s.

PC and Laptop Guide

As the video adapter was chosen NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060. This is the most powerful video card among those that can be installed in such a thin case. In combination with an excellent CPU, it gives you the opportunity to play modern games on high (not the highest) settings on a laptop that weighs only 1.8 kg. But it’s in Full HD. 4K-resolution, this system does not pull at all.

Curiously, we were given a laptop with a 512GB solid state drive and two terabytes of hard drives for the test, but in the store you will find only a much less interesting modification: with a 128 GB SSD and a 1 TB hard drive. These “volumes” in 2016 already filled with nausea, while the games year after year take up more and more space. But something still changes with time – installed in the GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro SSD is connected using the PCIe 3.0 x4 interface and shows very high read speeds for sequential and random data blocks. But the hard drive was slow. MSI GS63VR 7RF Stealth Pro-237UK Review 2018 under £1500: GTX 1060, SSD

The stress test, unfortunately, did not reassure – at full load on the CPU and GPU simultaneously the processor overheats and begins to skip cycles. In principle, this was to be expected from so much powerful iron in such a thin laptop. But do not be in a hurry to get upset – in games the CPU rarely loads as much. And during testing in games, problems with overheating, we did not observe. Now if the video card would be more powerful and the processor would hardly stretch it, then there would be problems with overheating. The hull, which is also not surprising, is warmed, be healthy. You can not play on your knees.

The battery life is very commendable. In battery games, I would not advise you to play anyway, because any laptop starts to save battery and show much less FPS when not connected to the outlet, but to watch movies on MSI GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro you can and without bother searching for a charger for a total of four hours.

MSI GS43VR 6RE Phantom Pro

MSI is in an excellent position, at least in the gaming market, where it is very difficult to find a replacement for the GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro. There is an ASUS ROG GL702VM with the same graphics card, but it is thicker and heavier, and also has a 17.3-inch screen – that is, after all, a little different device. Dell Alienware promises a 15.6-inch laptop with a thickness of not more than 22 mm, but so far this is only an announcement. Razer stopped shipping gaming laptops to uk, and after all, it has a model of only 23 mm thick with a GTX 1080 onboard and the other is an 18 mm case and with a GTX 1060 graphics card. Gaming cars are not sold in GIGABYTE.

Therefore, the closest competitor to the main character of the article in UK is the model of the same manufacturer, namely MSI GS43VR 6RE Phantom Pro . Curiously, the Phantom Pro is slightly thicker and heavier, but the display is smaller – 14 inches. It has the same processor, the same graphics card, the same cooling problems. And the same volume drives. MSI GS63VR 7RF Stealth Pro-237UK Review 2018 under £1500: GTX 1060, SSD

Conclusion

The new slim gaming laptop MSI did not hit the dirt face and can be a full-fledged heir to a series of similar devices Taiwanese company. The manufacturer is still no worse able to saddle the power of modern gaming hardware and without any problems to equip it in a compact and stylish “machine”, which is easy to take with you. No two power supplies, no suitcases and carts for transportation. You practically carry an ultrabook with you, only with an excellent 15.6-inch 4K-display, on which modern games show a high number of frames per second, even at high settings.

In addition to this, MSI GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro, as before, is equipped with a good game keyboard with multi-colored lighting and a large number of ports for every taste and color. Thanks to the new mobile video card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, this gaming laptop has become much more productive, but I want to believe that over time, modifications with more capacious drives will appear on sale.

Best budget laptops UK 2018 under £200, £300, £500 pounds – Laptops for Home, Student, Movies, Browsing (All round)

What to take into account when buying a laptop (Best budget laptops UK 2018)

Let’s review, one by one, all the features that a good laptop should have .

Remember them before the purchase, to be able to choose the model that best suits the use that you really give. In this way, it will be easier to make the right choice.

Size and weight

Do not forget that a laptop must be, first of all, that same, portable.

Sometimes, it is easy to focus a lot on components such as the processor, graphics, RAM … and the most important thing: that the laptop is manageable.

To not get tired when it comes to transporting it and to be practical, look for a device as thin and light as possible.

To this day, in general, you will not have problems, but it is always good to take a look at the dimensions and the weight.

Many of the laptops that currently exist in the market fall into the category of ultrabooks . Their weight does not exceed 2 kilos and they are less than 2 centimeters thick . Some, even approach the kilo of weight and the centimeter and average of thickness, like the MacBook Air. They are the most portable and recommended for day to day.

Best budget gaming laptop (UK) Under 500 – 1000 in 2017/2018

However, not all laptops can be ultrabooks.

For example, it is the case of gaming laptops . Due to the power of its components, they will always be heavier and thicker. But, to maintain portability and not be too heavy on everyday use, always seek to get as close as possible to those values (2 cm thick and 2 kilos of weight).

Storage: hard drive and RAM

HDD

It is best to go for a solid drive or SSD . Thanks to its technology, your files will be handled so quickly and silently.

It is interesting to use an SSD disk, above all, to store the operating system. Doing so, the laptop boot will be much faster. The same happens if you use it to store your programs in it .

On the other hand, SSDs are more expensive, especially if you are looking for a high capacity because you keep many files (photos, music, documents, etc.). That is why, and because SSDs in laptops are still not very common, in certain cases , it may be interesting to choose a conventional hard drive or HDD.

In short: choose a laptop with hard disk HDD for heavy files or, simply, if you go just budget.

RAM

RAM, although in a different way to the hard drive (more in the short term), is also essential so that all the tasks that you run on your laptop move smoothly .

The most current in RAM are the memories of type DDR3 or, even, DDR4 , if you are going to use the laptop to play.

Graphic card

Normally, more conventional laptops, usually have integrated graphics cards . Although it is the usual and most economical, it is not ideal in all cases.

For that type of tasks more domestic and office (office automation, navigation, punctual multimedia consumption, etc.) meet well.

However, for video editing programs , games and more demanding applications graphically, you should look for a dedicated graphics card . If possible, oriented to the use that you habitually and with good capacity .

Processor

As with the graphics card, the processor will also depend a lot on the type of use you give your laptop.

The most common for home or office use are the Intel i3 or mid / low range , which are sufficient for that purpose.

For more advanced or intensive use, we would go to the Intel i5 range, or even the i7 . The price will be quite increased, so invest in the processor only if you really need it.

As we say, except for specific cases (video editing, programming or gaming ), with a mid-range processor is enough.

Autonomy

One of the most important points when buying a laptop.

In fact, all other characteristics depend on autonomy. You will not be served a powerful laptop if it leaves you hanging because of its short battery life.

Seek, at least, a range of 8 to 12 hours.

The ideal is that the battery lasts, at least, the same hours that you will use the laptop per day , whether for leisure or work. This way you will not have to make interruptions to load the equipment.

Also, the best thing is that the battery charges quickly . That way, it will make you much more bearable, especially if you do it often.

Yes, because of the type of laptop (more powerful, gaming, etc.), its autonomy does not even reach 8 hours, it looks for the longest one, within its range. In the long run, you will appreciate it.

Another option, in these cases, is to choose a laptop that has a removable battery in a simple way, to have a couple of them and replace them without having to reload the device.

How to choose a processor for gaming and which one to buy?

Best Gaming Laptop under 1000 dollars, Under £1000 GBP

Screen: size and resolution

The resolution and size of your laptop screen is a very personal decision.

The more screen size, the equipment will be heavier and less portable.

However, if you spend many hours in front of it or consume multimedia, play and edit video and image, the size and resolution of the screen are essential. Ideally, choose a screen with at least a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and a size of 15 inches .

In any case, in addition, it is important that the screen has good viewing angles and that it is antireflective . This way you will enjoy much more of the visual experience, without distractions.

Keyboard and touchpad

Will you use the laptop’s touchpad or do you prefer to take a mouse apart?

Today, touchpads have improved greatly in shortcuts, features, quality … And you can avoid transporting, along with the laptop, an extra accessory such as the mouse.

However, for work or intensive use, there are many people who prefer the classic mouse.

It’s up to you.

In the part of the keyboard , however, the choice is clear, beyond personal tastes: it looks for its keys to have a good route and to be robust , with good touch. Also, that has good contrast between the letters and the background, so that it is easier to see, even in low light.

Even better: choose a laptop with a backlit keyboard . Thus, the lack of lighting will never be a problem when it comes to working or enjoying your leisure time.

Connectivity and ports

In terms of network connectivity, always look for the most current standard and be as complete as possible.

Or, put another way: that the laptop can be connected, preferably, through Ethernet input and Wi-Fi . That way, you’ll have more options.

And, in addition, that the Wi-Fi connection is fast and current ( 802.11n standard 802.11ac ).

When it comes to reviewing the ports and connections of the laptop, the same thing happens.

Choose the one with the newest and fastest ports . For example, in the case of the USB port (one of the most used), which is type 3.0 and up .

Also, do not skimp on the number of connections : Good connectivity will save you time and money.

Time, because there will always be free ports and you will not have to wait to disconnect any in use.

And money, because you will avoid buying extra accessories ( hubs or switches) to have all the ports that you will need in your day to day.

Best brands

These four brands are those that dominate the positions of our top .

Below, you have a summary of its advantages and disadvantages .

We also tell you in what price ranges and type of laptop stand out the most, so you can choose which brand is best for you, according to your needs.

HP

One of the most renowned brands in the computer world.

While it is not the most economical firm in general, it makes up for it with the high quality and careful design of its products.

In addition, it offers you a lot of variety .

From more basic and economic laptops (for domestic use) to high-end models (which is where it stands out).

Within these last, are their gaming laptops . These have been very well received by the public, such as HP Omen, which we have included in our ranking of the 5 best cheap laptops.

Lenovo

It became known as a brand dedicated to low cost or low cost products.

However, today, has pivoted towards the high-end , offering laptops with good finishes and that give a sense of quality.

In this way, the range of options you have to choose is quite large .

Its prices, on the other hand, are quite tight: it stands out for its price-quality ratio .

Asus

Another of the heavyweights of computer science, along with HP.

Currently, something has been left behind, especially when it comes to offering a competitive price. You also have to keep in mind that the competition is quite high.

In any case, it is still a leading brand , very valuable when buying a laptop.

It stands out, above all, in offering very powerful equipment of good quality . In design , in general, it also approves amply.

It is another firm that has risen to the car of laptops to play , with the ROG models . It also has convertible laptops , others more work oriented …

You will find a couple of Asus laptops, analyzed more thoroughly, in our top 5.

What to say about the signature of the apple.

It is distinguished by its high standards in design and construction quality .

Also in the audio and the image , strengths of the MacBook, along with its fluidity . For this reason, we recommend it especially if you are a designer, composer, etc.

Your negative points, you will know them too well.

On the one hand, they work in a closed environment (operating system), which limits you when choosing the programs you will use, among other things.

And, on the other hand, its price, high compared to other brands.

If these two aspects are not so important to you, no doubt a MacBook will offer you a high quality and guarantee .

We propose the most affordable option, the MacBook Air. Look for it in our top of the 5 best cheap laptops if you want to know more.

4. (£399) Lenovo Yoga Book 10.1″ Black Touch Laptop under £400 – £500 in 2018

Lenovo presented its Yoga Book at IFA , one of the most interesting devices of the year. With an idea that is not new, Lenovo itself already has a 2-in-1 tablet or convertibles – depending on what you want to call it – but it is very well executed and with some very characteristic elements that attract attention. This laptop is one of the good cheap low budget touch screen laptop under 400 in UK 2018.

Up to 15 hours of battery life means you’ll be ready for work or play anytime, anywhere.

Next to the hinge, the other element that catches our attention is the flat tactile surface. And it does so for two reasons, the first because it serves as a digitizing tablet for the pencil it includes . Reaching up to 2048 levels of pressure. Secondly, because that same surface is what then becomes the Halo Keyboard that we will discuss in detail later.

Finally, on the sides we can see the outputs of the two stereo speakers with Dolby technology, Micro USB connector for charging and data synchronization, a mini HDMI output, SIM slot and micro SD as well as two buttons (power and volume control) ) plus the 3.5mm headphone output.

In a device so thin and whose purpose in being able to take it wherever we go the choice of an Intel Atom processor seems a good idea. Firstly because it allows you to install Windows 10, a system that gives a lot of gameplay and more productivity options for the type of apps it allows – although some require more power than the Yoga Book offers.

On the other hand, along with Android as an operating system, the Intel Atom is able to offer more reduced consumption in the face of greater autonomy. All this without forgetting that we will also have less need to have a more capable refrigeration system.

In this way, with this processor, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage that can be extended via microSD, the Yoga Book is presented as an interesting equipment at the specification level. Where there is also no wifi, bluetooth and LTE connectivity thanks to its integrated SIM slot.

1. (£549) ASUS ZenBook Flip UX360CA-C4030T under £550 – £600 in 2018

Currently we can find, with different prices, various hardware alternatives in this model. The Zenbook Flip UX360UA saw the light with the generation of Intel Skylake processors and now we can find it with the new Kaby Lake processors. The first models, among which is our analysis model, can be found right now at really attractive prices. This laptop is one of the Best budget laptops UK 2018 under £200, £300, £500 pounds

Our analysis model comes equipped with a Core i7-6500U processor. Processor of 2 cores and four threads with a maximum frequency, in turbo mode, of 3.1GHz, is accompanied by 8GB of RAM configured in double channel (soldered on board) and a 256GB disk drive with M.2 format and SATA interface , it is a Socket3 slot so we could improve the storage with any M.2 PCI unit with NVMe protocol, it is the only element, together with the wireless card, that we can change in this model.

The integrated graphics come from the hand of an Intel HD Graphics 520 . This is a solvent graphic when it comes to handling ultra high definition screens, including video at this level of definition, but far from being a solvent solution to play current games. Something that, on the other hand, I think is far away from the target user for this type of laptop.

ASUS is committed to a completely Intel solution with the integration of an Intel Centrino 8260 card for the support of Wifi-AC 2×2 MIMO and Bluetooth 4.1 support. This wireless chip will allow link speeds of up to 867mbps. We should not miss much if you do not have an Ethernet connector, but it’s something you have to keep in mind. ASUS has achieved in the Zenbook Flip UX360UA a good balance between proportions, materials and finishes. It is a lightweight laptop, something difficult in convertible with touch screen, with only 1.2Kg of weight. The rest of dimensions, 321x219x13.9mm, also confirm a perfect format to wear on a day-to-day basis. We can only argue that the frames of the screen, 13.3 “diagonal, could be somewhat narrower.

4. (£549) Lenovo Ideapad 310 15.6″ Laptop Intel Core i5 under £550 – £600 in 2018 with 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD

We present you the Lenovo Ideapad 310-15IKB laptop . An excellent laptop at a good price, with Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, 1TB HDD. In terms of requirements, it’s great. Fast (although it is convenient to uninstall or disable certain functions that it has by default when starting it, because if it does not turn on very slowly). Great image and sound quality. Ideal to work. Lightweight. You have to get used to the keyboard, because the keys are a little closer together than I’m used to, but it’s a matter of time. This laptop is one of the Best budget laptops UK 2018 under £200, £300, £500 pounds

If you love to listen to music or watch videos online incessantly but do not want to spend money on features you do not need, the Ideapad 310-15IKB is your laptop. The fast and reliable processing, the improved audio and its screen make it an ideal multimedia PC.

Very versatile laptop for its price. It weighs little and the battery lasts about 3 hours if only office tasks are done. Bring Windows 10 installed. Another point really to highlight are their speakers, they sound very good.

The only negative point that I find is that this model does not have built-in graphics (it uses the CPU itself as a graphics and its performance is less than a dedicated one) and it does not come with a solid hard disk (SSD) that would do it much faster. We are facing a laptop that is key to office work, surfing the web, watching movies, and not bad at all with 2D graphic design programs, although it is certainly not a portable to play on it.

One of its most recent additions is the ASUS X542UA-GO254T VivoBook that is presented as a laptop that will compete at a very attractive price of only £578, but unlike previous generation models has a luxurious design, thin and high performance that usually we would find in more expensive systems.

The ASUS X542UA-GO254T VivoBook draws attention for having an aluminum case and not plastic as it happened on other occasions. As a result it is also very thin and light resulting in a thickness of 17.5mm and a weight of 1.5Kg. The laptop comes with a 15.6 “screen with FullHD resolution (1920 × 1080) and” NanoEdge “technology. This refers to that the bevel has a thickness of 7.8mm which means that it offers more screen space.Internally, things get more interesting.

2. (£398)Acer Aspire 5 i5 best cheap laptop for photo editing UK under £500 in 2018

The first thing that draws attention when we see this device is its design. As we will see later, they have made some sacrifices regarding the materials used, possibly with the intention of cutting the price, but they have managed to do it in such a way that it continues to be an attractive laptop visually.

The analyzed model is equipped with an Intel Core i5-7200U Processor , a quad-core micro 2.5 GHz, and which is equipped with an Intel HD 520 GPU. Still, in the catalog of the Taiwanese company there are other variants with i5-6200U or i3-6100U processors . This device is not yet sold in Spain, so you have to see what is the configuration that comes to our country.

Aspire 5 is powered by a 7th Gen Intel Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, and comes with 256GB of storage.

The screen offers the minimum that would be expected in a device of these characteristics, but without any boast that makes it stand out. By this I mean that it has a FullHD resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels , but neither the screen is tactile nor have they risked launching a configuration with greater pixelage.

It includes 8 GB of RAM, which today are almost a standard for teams that want to ensure optimal performance. Even so and as it happened with the processors, also more economical variants with only 4 GB, that although it should be sufficient for most of the tasks, maybe they are a little short if we want to use programs especially swallowed.

At the time of purchase, we are undecided between many different models among the best gaming laptops on the market. Difficult to come to terms with and understand what may be the best option for us. In this guide we will discover / analyze how to choose a gaming laptop and for which types of use it can be an interesting option!

First of all, why orient yourself on the purchase of a gaming laptop (gaming notebook) compared to a normal one? What are the advantages?

It’s not a secret. Playing on PC means having a good hardware , otherwise in all probability you will not be able to start the most recent titles without facing performance difficulties. Somewould say the best or mothing . And this is the motto you have to consider if you are buying a gaming laptop without compromise.

In addition to the hardware, another advantage given by gaming – oriented laptops may be the possibility to upgrade the system , the dedicated assistance , the design (thought to be many hours under load), the aesthetics , and the price (yes , it is often lower than a professional solution).

Best budget gaming laptop (UK) Under 500

Several of these aspects push many users to a gaming laptop, even if they never started any video game in their own life .

In this guide to the best gaming laptops ( best gaming notebooks ) we will see to help with the purchase of a gaming laptop compared to disparate uses.

Another premise, get ready to spend at least € 800 , a gaming laptop from this price range. Below this figure there are simply no laptops worthy of the name.

December 2017 notes on the best gaming laptops (best gaming notebooks)

This month our guide to the best gaming laptops does not offer any news. We advise you to keep an eye on prices during the Christmas period: sales definitely expected in the first weeks of December.

If you are looking for the best gaming laptops (best gaming notebooks) for your study path, there are so many options. Below, we propose a series of solutions suitable for university / scholastic use that try to be a good compromise between performance and portability .

The following list of the best gaming laptops (best gaming notebooks) for university / school use is divided by budget availability. Looking for the best product available for price range.

The only recommendation is to leave laptops too cheap, they are a useless solution that will take you to spend more money in a short future for a more performing model!

…………………….

Manufacturers of laptops in an effort to increase sales very freely use the word “game”. A user who does not follow every “sneeze” of Intel, NVIDIA and other big players, has not so many chances to buy the “right” gamer laptop. We found out which laptops are cheaper than £800 pounds suitable for modern games.

Let’s start, as usual, with a brief introduction to the current state of affairs: what technologies are in vogue now and which ones are really worthwhile, what configurations of gaming laptops should be avoided and why. That the article does not turn into an encyclopedia in several volumes, which will become obsolete even during the writing time, we will pay very little attention to each aspect. For the same reason, there is no need to look for unexpected discoveries, secret secrets of choosing the ideal gambling for a song and a deep look at the technologies that make one laptop with Core i7 deliver 90 FPS, and the other with Core i7 – 25 FPS. But this material will be enough, so that the consultant in the store would not tell you which of the laptops is better, and you tell him.

And right away, right away, I have good and bad news for you. Good: gaming laptops finally can seriously compete with desktop PCs. Mainly, thanks to the fact that this summer NVIDIA company was able to almost simultaneously produce video cards for laptops and desktops, which practically do not differ in performance. So those who say that gaming laptops do not happen – just screaming simpletons, not versed in the subject. The bad news is that most laptops with NVIDIA 10-series graphics cards cost more than £800 (you can buy several gaming consoles for this money), and most laptops on less modern mobile video cards are much worse in performance.

But do not forget that the console, in spite of its versatility, is still a thing only for entertainment, whereas a notebook with powerful components will serve an excellent service in study or work. After all, you can not only play on it, watch a movie and hang in social networks, but also make drawings in AutoCAD, work with photos, mount video and many other things. In addition, the laptop is easy to carry around and work everywhere. Therefore, comparing the console and gaming laptops directly – the wrong decision.

Display

Gaming laptops are often equipped with quality matrices. Not such, of course, as for professional work with graphics, but perfectly suitable for all kinds of entertainment – games, movies, just like that. But, if you can only determine by characteristics whether the laptop is suitable for modern games, such a trick will not work with the display. So it’s better to get acquainted with it live before the purchase and try to understand at least for your eyes whether it suits you or not. All you can learn about the display in advance: the diagonal, the resolution, the refresh rate and whether it supports any technology such as G-SYNC. Most often you can find gamers with 15.6 and 17.3-inch displays. The latter are almost never compact, except there are only a couple of MSI models, and 15.6-inch models still sometimes try to make them thin and light.record holders . The maximum resolution of the image, which is usually offered by gamers laptops, is 1920×1080 pixels (Full HD) or 3840×2160 pixels (UHD / 4K). Games in 4K resolution while it makes sense to run only on extremely powerful machines, and we are discussing today the “middle class”. So I would stop on Full HD. Although already at 17.3-inches with Full HD, the picture looks soapy.

With the frequency of updating, manufacturers of desktop monitors often indulge, bringing it up to values like 240 Hz, whereas on the vast majority of devices it is all at 60 Hz. Occasionally you can find laptops with 75 Hz. Well, the dynamic image will get a little smoother if the laptop produces 75 frames per second, but the difference will not be very noticeable, and you will not get such a high frame rate from most laptops unless you forcefully reduce the resolution and graphics settings for smoothness alone.

There is still such a thing as G-SYNC. About it, we described in detail in the article ” Game monitor with support for NVIDIA G-SYNC. Overview AOC G2460PG », so we will not go into detail. I will only remind you that due to the discrepancy between the refresh rate of the picture on the display and the frequency of new video card output, the image in dynamic scenes is sometimes divided into two or more parts that do not fit together. Unpleasant eyes break. G-SYNC synchronizes the image and you can observe an absolutely smooth change of frames. However, there is a downside. Laptops with this technology can not work from the built-in video core of the processor, so they are much faster discharged in non-resource-intensive tasks.

There is no point in enumerating and discussing the diversity of modern CPUs, mobile video cards, RAM and storage devices, as in this article we will touch on a very narrow layer of laptops, the “filling” of which is not so much different.

For example, all of them are based on the Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor. Why on it? Is that some favorite processor of the author? In fact, there are several reasons. First, Intel does not have a lot of chips suitable for powerful gaming laptops, and the one mentioned above is one of the most common ones. Any ultra-hard Intel Core i7-6500U is unlikely to be extended by NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M. In extreme cases, for this video card is suitable Intel Core i5-6300HQ. But, in order not to take risks, I did not include laptops with it. After all, every new game requires more and more resources from the laptop, so it’s better to be reinsured once again, than to be disappointed in buying in six months.

On video cards, too, we will not stop long. There will be only three of them today: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M, GTX 970M and GTX 1060. Everything below is not a gaming video card at all, but laptops with 980M, 1070 and 1080 will cost more than £800. What games will go on the bundle of the mentioned CPU and one of these three graphics cards you can read directly in the description of laptops. The main thing, pay attention to the amount of video memory. For 960M, 2 GB is also suitable, since it is not able to process more precise textures quickly enough, for a 970M it is better not less than three, and the GTX 1060 is better to take in a configuration with 6 GB of GDDR5. Only three “giga” for it is already scarce.

RAM. The minimum for today is 8 GB. But it’s better to immediately choose a laptop with 12 or 16 GB or quickly upgrade after purchase. The drives for all the notebooks listed below are equipped in the same configuration: initial SSD size, 128 GB, and terabyte hard drive. Better, of course, that the hardener was larger, but this noticeably increases the price of the final laptop. Often, the manufacturer can boast that the SSD in its gaming model supports the PCIe 3.0 interface and, fortunately, it usually and truly gives an increase in performance. Although the good old SSD with SATA 3.0 work fast enough, so do not be afraid to take them if the budget is not too large.

Best gaming laptops costing up to £800

We touched on all the main components that should be paid attention to when buying a laptop for games on medium and high graphics settings, now let’s move on to the models that are best balanced.

1 (£799.99) MSI GV72 17.3 – Best i7 gaming laptops under £800 (GTX 1050 Dedicated Graphics) best gaming laptops under £800

Graphics Cards: Integrated vs. Dedicated | Differences between an integrated graphics card and a discrete one

Let’s start with the cheapest laptop under 800 pounds in uk. The configuration of ASUS ROG GL552VW, which attracted our attention, costs at the time of writing the article £800 . For this money you will get 60 frames per second in Watch Dogs 2 at medium settings in the resolution of 1366×768 pixels, and if you are lucky – 40 FPS at high. Battlefied 1 will go with 60 FPS at high settings in 1366×768. Mafia III … better do not even try . In Overwatch you can play even at the maximum in Full HD. Fallout 4 – 60 frames per second on medium in HD + or on high in Full HD with 30 FPS. In GTA V on high will be more than 40 FPS in Full HD, and 50 frames per second on the average in 1920×1080 in Civilization VI. Approximately the same in the third Witcher on average quality in 1366×768. As you can see, a lot depends on the game.

Now, of course, about the laptop itself. It has a 17.3 inch full HD screen and weighs a bit – 2.7 kg. But the thickness of its body is significant – 35 mm. This laptop, which is rare, is offered with both metal and plastic casing. And the latter is felt by sight and the touch is quite cheap.

Display: MSI GV72 has an anti-reflective coating and produces a picture in the resolution of 1920×1080 pixels, there are no additional chips, moreover, the matrix is far from the best. The keyboard has a red backlight, the touchpad is large and comfortable. There is one new USB Type-C port, two USB 3.0 and an old USB 2.0, as well as HDMI, RJ-45 and a mini-jack for the headset. Most are located, fortunately, on the left side.

The laptop has a steep percentage, Intel Core i7-7700HQ, and 8 GB of RAM. The video card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 is good for gaming together with the above processor will allow you to play even fresh games. In this configuration, it has only 2 GB of DDR5 dedicated graphics memory, but the chip itself simply will not pull up processing of higher resolution textures with normal FPS. The data storage system, like most gaming laptops, consists of a hard drive per terabyte .

2 ASUS FX503VD-DM080T i5 GTX 1050 gaming laptop under £800

The 15.6-inch screen displays 1920×1080 pixels, and the video card will not be dragged anyway. The laptop has four speakers and a subwoofer. This makes it loud, but, nevertheless, the sound quality does not become above average.

3 ASUS FX503VD-DM002T 15.6-inch Gaming Laptop – best gaming laptops under £800

Asus has a whole unit that deals with gaming laptops – ROG, but also develops some models and itself. For £800 you will get the ASUS FX503VD-DM002T – Intel i7-7700HQ Processor, dedicated NVidia’s GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card, but with 2 GB of video memory, plus 8 GB of RAM. But, in general, games will go about with the same frame rate.

The ASUS FX503VD-DM002T has a good screen with a resolution of1920 x 1080 pixels. There are configurations with a Full HD display, but there is half as much RAM, and this is fraught with problems in games and photo / video editors, and the difference in money is only a couple of thousand.

Like other ASUS ROG laptops, Asus is trying to look stylish and aggressive, but in the eyes of anyway rushes to the budget. In it, thank the engineers, there is no optical drive, which has long been no use to anyone. Ports are only necessary: three USB 3.0, HDMI, RJ-45 and mini-jack. With a 15.6-inch display, the1920 x 1080 pixels weighs 2.6 kg, but is much thinner than the competitor – 25 mm. The storage subsystem is classical, as if someone carved on a sacred stone: “use a terabyte hard drive and a 128GB SSD from now on and forever.” On the SSD, of course, except for the system, programs and one or two games nothing will fit, but what will fit – it will work perfectly. The keyboard can boast a white backlight, but the keys have a short stroke, which not everyone will be pleased with.

4 Acer Nitro 5 15.6-Inch Gaming Notebook – Fast SSD i5 Gaming laptop under 800 pounds UK

Another laptop with almost the same set of accessories. But this is not surprising, because if you choose a graphics card or a processor is weaker, then in games it will be too sad.

So, inside you can find Intel Core i5-7300HQ, 8 GB of RAM DDR4 and video card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphics with 2 GB of video memory. With drives also without changes: a hard drive for one terabyte and hard drive for 128 GB. That is the best that can be found for £800. Accordingly, and the games will go the same and as well as on the laptops above in this article. By the way, this material will become obsolete, but on similar laptops we will continue to test new toys in the section Playing on laptops .

The laptop with the poetic name Acer Nitro 5 has a 15.6-inch display with a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels,FHD IPS display, also without any new technologies to attract attention. At the same time it is still the most compact – it weighs 2.7 kg and in thickness of only 23 mm. Excellent for daily “dragging” with him. Not like ultrabooks, of course, but for the student that’s it. However, first he will have somewhere to find £800.

It looks pretty good, although fingerprints to the topcase and keys stick to the simple. In comparison with the previous generation, it got one more connector: the newcomer was USB Type-C. True, most ports remain on the right side, which is not very good. The keyboard is good, but no frills. The key stroke is short, but there is a backlight. By the way, 17.3-inch twin brother of this laptop is participating in our mentioned section Playing on laptops .

5 Lenovo IdeaPad Y700 15

This spring, we had a detailed testing of Lenovo IdeaPad Y700 17 laptop with a 17.3-inch display on our site and we really liked it. It looks quite original when viewed closely, and also has a very good sound. The 15.6-inch model has a great sound, and we’ll talk about it a lot. Although no one disturbs you if you want to buy a 17.3-inch version, but it will already cost £800, if we choose the same “iron, that is, four thousand more expensive

With AMD CPU’s and a AMD Radeon R9 M385X Graphics 4 GB Graphics Card the ideapad Y700 packs all the firepower you need to lose yourself in the game

Lenovo IdeaPad Y700 15 is moderately compact, so it will not be a burden if you want to take it from time to time outside the apartment. It weighs 2.6 kg, and its body height is 26 mm. The display has an anti-reflective coating, and its resolution is 1920×1080 pixels. High refresh rate, AMD Radeon R9 M385X Graphics 4 GB – all by. “Iron” is absolutely the same as that of the already listed models, so I will not describe it again. And even the keyboard, like the majority, is highlighted in red.

6 MSI GL72 7QF 1008UK 17.3 inch gaming Laptop under £800

MSI GL72 7QF 1008UK is estimated at £800. And this is the first laptop in our compilation with a video card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M. It, of course, also does not “Believe Best”, but noticeably more fun than 960M. And even with the 3 GB of video memory with which it goes to Acer Predator.

It is helped by the already known processor Kabylake Core i5-7300HQ and 8 GB of DDR4 memory. With such a system, Watch Dogs 2 will go on high settings in Full HD with tolerable 36 FPS, Battlefield 1 on high in 1920×1080 will show almost 60 FPS, as much and Overwatch, but already at the maximum. In Doom on Full HD and high quality settings will be 40-50 frames per second, similarly or even slightly more in Fallout 4. Witcher 3 will show an average of 40 frames, and GTA V should go with 60 frames per second – all on high in Full HD. In other words, Predator in this configuration can finally be called a gaming laptop, since most games go really at high settings with good FPS. You 960M often have to put up with average settings and a resolution of 1920*1080 pixels

As for the notebook itself, it does not present other surprises in addition to its performance. But, given that this is the first gaming laptop Acer, then besides the good price / quality ratio, we do not need it. It looks stylish, has a good keyboard with adjustable backlight. Instead of the drive, you can install an additional fan that comes with the kit. The screen is excellent, but the sound is average. By the way, this month we will have a review of the updated Acer Predator, this time with Pascal.

7 MSI GP62 7RD (Leopard) 15.6 Inch Gaming Laptop £800 UK

MSI released not just a cool laptop, but cool and at an affordable price at the same time. At the time of this writing, this is the most affordable laptop with a very powerful graphics card – NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050. At the same time it is very thin – only 23.5 mm, and weighs a little – 2.4 kg. However, to a record-breaking thin notebook with the same hardware, it’s still far away – the height of the MSI GS63VR 6RF Stealth Pro is about 17.7 mm, but it costs £800, while the MSI GP62 7RD can be bought for £800. Yes, it’s slightly higher than our top bar, but we could not pass by such an offer.

The most important thing is about games. Everywhere we will talk only about Full HD, so at the moment this laptop will play all games with high FPS in 1920×1080. In Watch Dogs 2 on high will be 60 with copecks of frames per second, as much in Battlefied 1 on high. In Overwatch, the maximum will be even more than 100 FPS, in DOOM – 80 frames approximately. Fallout 4 on ultras will be able to issue 60 FPS, the same amount will be on high in the third Witcher, and in GTA V even 90 FPS. In general, everything will be very good.

Despite the small thickness, MSI GP62 7RD is noticeably quieter than the competitors. During games, the laptop is hot enough, but not in the keyboard area, so you can play – but on the table.

The GL502VM has a nice keyboard, but the backlight is always red, then Stealth Pro has a bunch of colors for your taste. The 15.6-inch display with Full HD resolution supports Anti-Glare (1920*1080) eDP IPS-Level, which is very handy for such a powerful system – frame breaks sometimes annoy the low frame rate. The reverse side – a large battery consumption, even in undemanding programs and simply in idle time.

Best budget gaming laptop 2017? If you are looking for a good gaming laptop which is well built, Good in performance, moderate battery life, comes with a good processor then you have to spend more than $500 dollars or £500 GBP, I would say you might have to spend at least $800 dollars or £800 GBP. Sometimes you can get a good deal on laptops during Amazon prime days or Black Friday deals. I would say watch out for these Amazon big sale days to get a good deal on laptops.

How to choose a motherboard for gaming – How to Choose Motherboard for PC Game

There are certain things that you should look out for while purchasing a Gaming laptop or gaming PC. A small piece of advice; if you are low on budget then you should me more careful, so that you do not end up buying a lower spec Gaming laptop which would be of no use. The below list of Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017 and USA 2017 is given below.

You do not always have the space or time to assemble a gaming PC.

Maybe you need a laptop for university or for work and you can not spend 1000 dollars for a fixed and 1000 for a laptop.

Whatever the reason, there are excellent solutions for you too !

Let’s clarify, a gaming notebook can not reach a desktop PC of the same figure as performance, indeed, we are very far.

But for 900-1000 dollars or £900 to £1000 we find several really good gaming laptops , all with a dedicated video card of course.

The SSD changes your life , really, incredibly speeds up your PC in all operations.

Can I change the processor on my laptop

Speaking instead of the relationship between money spent on a desktop PC and a laptop gaming, while in the first we can achieve a complete and discrete configuration around $500, for a gaming laptop we must start at least a round figure of 900-1000 dollars or £900 to £1000. It always remains to consider that in the fixed configuration, in addition to the 500 must be added mouse, keyboard and screen, things that are integrated in a laptop, even with the limitation of the touchpad (unusable to play decently at most games).

Processor

The main objective of this article is to suggest the best Gaming processor , the identifiable component as the beating heart of any PC. A processor, or CPU (Central Processing Unit), must be sufficiently performing because the increase of its power improves the efficiency and speed of any component of your gaming computer , from the speed of uploads to the performance of video games, from boot time at data read speed on HDD / SSD. So let’s go together to see which ones are the best and most affordable on the market.

The processors are in a few words logical units that process incoming information and then “send” the other components of your rig . From the mouse input to the fan speed of the power supply, everything is largely dependent on what the CPU decides every nanosecond, so sanctioning the need to find the best possible Gaming processor seems obvious. There are three main factors to consider in order to determine the goodness of a processor: the amount of cores / threads , the maximum working frequency and the size of the cache .

It is also important to keep in mind the compatibility of the socket , usually 1151, to avoid not being able to mount the CPU on our motherboard. Finally, we warn you that the gaming CPUs present in this article are practically all of Intel brand , as we believe that they are the only truly deserving in terms of performance and longevity. The only omission worthy of note regards the Intel Coffee Lake processors , not for lack of performance but for cost reasons; having come out for less than a month the price is still too high to justify the purchase, in our opinion.

As happens with the other articles of the series assembling PC gaming , we decided to divide the products into three macro categories and select the most performing devices of the various bands. We have decided to omit the lower end because we believe that under no circumstances is it worth buying products conceived from the beginning as inferior; in these articles you find only the best for each price range . The products that offer good performance at a low price correspond to the medium-low range . In the mid-range we find CPUs with more than enough performance and suitable even for the heaviest titles. In the high rangefinally, we find the best processors, so powerful that they can very well stand the test of time both in the gaming environment and in editing and beyond. We proceed then, going in order of price ranges.

How to choose a processor for gaming and which one to buy?

Processor range: Best processor for gaming under 10000?

Core i5: Powerful and fast , this CPU is really very good and is able to withstand the hardware requirements of any game currently on the market and, presumably, for several years to come. Being a quad-core processor the stress is lower than the dual-core solutions, boasting a more efficient distribution of workload between the different logical units of the CPU and, therefore, increasing the longevity of the device. Also in this case the improvement compared to the last generation model is evident, making it therefore an obligatory choice for anyone who wishes to create a hard-wearing rig designed for gaming .
Core i7: When it comes to i7 models you always have a guarantee of unparalleled extreme power and longevity. The malleability of this processor makes it excellent for gaming as well as for other heavy activities, such as exporting video from editing software. The presence of eight threads speed up the speed of calculation and thanks to its intelligent design you can save yourself the hassle of upgrading your gaming processor for several years to come. In short, this CPU – although not essential for videogaming – is suitable for those looking for the best of the best. If you want to buy one of the best processors currently on the market, just follow this link to Amazon or select the box below.
Core i7 extreme range: these Latest generation tweaked or fully cloaked processors and in terms of value for money it is better to avoid them.

We discard the low consumption solutions, identified with the letter “U”, as they sacrifice power for the sake of increasing autonomy (the Core i7 series U for example only have 2 cores and 4 threads).

Good gaming laptop in UK 2017?

The graphic cards for laptop have been different until the arrival of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 10 series for offering specifications lower than their desktop counterparts, at least by nomenclature, a situation that greatly complicated the choice of a computer since it does not We could let ourselves be carried by the name.

This means that for example a GTX 970M does not perform as well as a GTX 970 and the same applies to all graphics cards of the GeForce 900 series and earlier, including the GTX 980 that adapted NVIDIA to laptops without reducing the count of shaders.

Graphics Cards: Integrated vs. Dedicated

This solution maintains the basic specifications of the graphic core GM204 in its entirety, but has lower working frequencies due to temperature issues and ends up paying less than its desktop counterpart.

With the arrival of the graphics cards for GeForce GTX 10 laptop the situation has improved considerably, since NVIDIA has maintained in almost all its models the same basic specifications that we can find in the desktop versions and in some cases not only has not reduced them It has improved them slightly , either through a small increase in shaders or work speed.

Razer Blade Pro GTX 1080 Gaming laptop review

We are going to take a complete tour of the next- generation notebook graphics cards that NVIDIA currently offers and that are used both in gaming laptops and in multimedia equipment with more modest features. With this we want to help you to have clear what graphics card you need to move properly current games with specific screen resolutions.

Keep in mind that we focus on NVIDIA because AMD has a very limited presence in the market of graphic solutions for laptops, but we will discuss the alternatives that exist in each category even if they have not been used in equipment marketed in Spain so that you have a vision More complete.

Low level – GeForce GTX 1060: repeated though this time as a minimum option. In those games that are not very demanding they can offer a fluid experience even with very high qualities. For example in Prey with maximum quality it is possible to be around 30 FPS on average, but in Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds we would only achieve more than 30 FPS with everything in medium-low.
Medium level – GeForce GTX 1070: it is a very powerful graphics solution and thanks to this it also serves as the engine of a gaming notebook with 4K resolution. In general we can expect a good experience using high or very high qualities (not maximum) in demanding games. For example, in Prey with maximum quality, we will average 50 FPS, while in Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds we will have to configure the settings in medium-high so that the experience is good.
High level – GeForce GTX 1080: is the most powerful NVIDIA offers right now in laptops. Sums 2,560 shaders and 8 GB of GDDR5X. It raises the bar against the GTX 1070 and can move virtually any current game in very high qualities and even maximum, depending on the requirements of each. In Prey for example, it manages to keep 60 FPS fixed in 4K and maximum quality, while in Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds it is ideal to choose the settings in high quality.

You should not forget that the most expensive does not have to be the best, and that when we overcome the barrier of graphics cards mid-high the ratio performance per falls to levels not recommended in most cases.

MSI GP62 FHD Gaming is a best i7 good gaming laptop around 1000 pounds with 2GB dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 graphics and latest Intel Core i7 processor.

To take advantage of all the speed that the processor can generate, the MSI GP62 i7 Gaming Laptop mounts a SSD disk of 128 GB , the best solution to always have their files, even the most cumbersome.

The 8 Gb Ram is the standard, at least quantitatively speaking, for a product of this price range and must be considered that in part it is absorbed by the integrated Intel HD graphics processor. Perhaps some proble ms could be had by connecting larger screens but given the prevalent use for which this device is being studied, we are talking about exceptions and not rules.

The connectivity compartment is well equipped with a high performance dual band 802.11 AC WiFi card, while for the connection of the peripherals you can use the 3 USB sockets , one of type C at 3.1 and the other of type 3.0. Do not miss the HDMI output for connection with TV or monitor while a bluetooth module is missing to connect, for example, your smartphone or an external mouse.

Surely MSI with this MSI GP62 i7 Gaming Laptop wanted to create a high-performance product but to contain costs has renounced something, such as a license to Windows 10 Pro, making it find the Home version installed on a product that supplied technological and price, it is probably more aimed at a gamer use than a professional .

6 (879) HP OMEN 15-ce006na i7 budget good gaming laptop under £900 – £1000 UK

The thin and light gaming notebook, with excellent construction and an optimal cooling system for the support of a high performance quad core processor between i5 or i7 of sixth generation and a powerful graphics card of the Nvidia GTX 1050 or 1060 series with the fastest memory currently available. In addition to the DDR4 RAM, the presence on some models of an SSD M.2 disk does not lack.

The solution mounts a Full HD IPS screen with excellent viewing angles but sags a lot in autonomy especially in this 17-inch model. We recommend it to all those who want a great desktop replacement thin and not too heavy.

Good specifications of this gaming notebook not too driven in terms of performance. This is a laptop that brings the news of the sixth-generation processors including the DDR4 RAM and the USB Type-C port.

The graphics component is a GTX 960M with a lot of memory on board while the processor is the classic i7 quad core that is found on these prices but also on a lower budget level. The price is influenced by the characteristics and amounts to £879.

Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017 While not strictly gaming notebook, this ASUS team is characterized by a very balanced configuration and an adjusted relationship between quality and performance. Our recommendation is to opt for the model with Intel Core i7-6700HQ, accompanied by 4 Gbytes of RAM and an NVIDIA GTX950M.

Two important points; If you want to buy a little cheaper you can opt for the version with FreeDOS (which, of course, you will have to change for a valid Windows 10 license) and it is more advisable to take advantage of the free RAM module to extend it as much as you can; Is a relatively inexpensive component and you will notice it in performance.

How to choose a motherboard for gaming – How to Choose Motherboard for PC Game

by Staff · Nov 7, 2017

The best solutions are found among the motherboards designed for the latest generation of Intel processors. To choose a motherboard , the most important factors to consider before purchasing one are mainly three, that is, the size , socket , and the chipset used. To figure out which motherboard you buy, I will try to clarify the ideas on each of these aspects.

If you do not have strong spending limitations, the choice of the PC’s motherboard should be directed to platforms designed for the latest Intel processors. The Amd platforms – the best solutions for economic systems – have remained a bit on the heels of the technological evolution of high performance platforms. With a platform that supports Skylake architecture processors, you have support for Ddr4 memory, M.2 format disks and, in some cases, USB communication interfaces also in the new Type C format.

Considering this, the choice of the motherboard is far from simple because the number of models available is very high and because there is a risk of spending for functions that will often never be used; these have a marked impact on the final price of the product, especially when moving to gaming product lists.

If you are going to choose an Intel K series processor, that is, with unlocked and best overclocked multiplier, you will need to point to an Intel Atom chipset based Intel Z170 motherboard. If, however, you are not going to buy the K Series processors, you can be satisfied with a model that uses the H170 chipset.

Among the models on the market, the Gigabyte GA-Z170MX Gaming 5 (about 220 euros) and the Asus Maximus VIII Gene (250 euros) – the platform used for the system created in the lab – are among the best solutions for those looking for uncompromising platforms. They offer everything available on counterparts in Atx format, and in the case of the Maximus VIII Gene you also get the most sophisticated overclock support from the already great one offered by the Gigabyte platform.

How to choose the motherboard for your pc or your future configurations.

Your motherboard is a key component of your pc’s hardware that has the task of controlling and communicating all the other hardware components .

Introduction

In the world of PC hardware, the motherboard is the basis of any configuration.

This component, in fact, has the task of hosting the processor and making it communicate with all the other components , such as ram, video card, and sound card.

What do you need to know about choosing the right motherboard? Surely the first thing you will have to make sure is compatibility with your processor and then with the other components you put on your pc.

When choosing components for your pc, it’s also important to try to create a balance and avoid bottleneck bottlenecks that limit the performance of one of the components as being too powerful over another.

Also read: Can I change the processor on my laptop

So there are a lot of variables on which to reflect and with dozens of brands that offer hundreds of options is definitely not a simple process.

All the commercially available motherboards are distinguished, first of all, by the size they are used. In order to avoid compatibility issues, a number of standard formats have been created, among which the most popular on the market are the so-called ATX standard , with dimensions of 305 x 244 mm, and the so-called microATX standard , called sometimes also μATX, mATX or uATX, with a maximum size of 244 x 244 mm.

The motherboard

The motherboard is a grain size print circuit , customized by various manufacturers with a variety of functions and components to accommodate.

However, in all motherboards there are some basic components:

The socket , that is, the processor housing
The RAM slots , which in today’s motherboards are usually 2, 4 or 8
The PCI lines
The connectors for USB, fans, audio and power
The SATA connectors for hard disk and DVD players
Various external connections (and USB, VGA, Ethernet)
CPU Power Connectors (4 or 8 Pin) and Motherboard (24 Pin)

Also, usually, you can find the sound card, bluetooth card, wireless card, and other internal connectors.

On the market, you can also find various motherboard formats. The format currently used is ATX , with its micro ATX, Flex ATX, DTX and Mini ITX lines.

The difference is shape and space occupied by the motherboard , resulting in fewer slots present.

Also read: I want to change my laptops processor

Choose the motherboard.

Therefore, in order to choose the motherboard, various factors need to be evaluated.

But compatibility with the processor , for example, if we take an i5 7600k, we should take any motherboard with socket LGA 1151 on the motherboards of the B150, h150, h170 , z170 , h270 and z270 motherboards.

Depending on the processor , you also need to choose the motherboard series. In fact, in case you took an unlocked and overclocked processor, like the intel K series, you have to take a series of motherboards that support the overclock to use it, that is, the Z series, otherwise the processor will work but you will not be able to change the clock frequency .

If instead you get a locked processor it will be good any set of motherboards.

Secondly, we have to choose the size of the motherboard according to the houses we want to use , for example, if we take a Mid Tower or Full tower case we know that inside and outside any motherboard (except some special cases), whether ATX or Mini ITX , but if we took a Low Tower case the larger card allowed would be a Micro ATX.

Another factor to consider is the amount of RAM needed, in fact the smaller size motherboards usually have only two RAM slots for up to 32gb, and the larger motherboards, ATX format, support 4 slots of ram, for a maximum of 64Gb. A special case is the E-ATX format motherboards, which are the motherboards that allow the use of extreme-grade intel processors, in fact these cards support up to 8 RAM slots for a total of 128Gb. Also check the type of RAM supported by the motherboard, whether it’s DDR3, DDR3L, or DDR4.

Considering these three elements we can proceed to the choice of the motherboard.

Best budget gaming laptop (UK)

Many of you at this point will be wondering why I did not mention the video card , the answer is simple, at present the video cards take advantage of all the PCI-E interface of which are equipped with all the motherboards currently on the market, the only difference being in the number of different formats, in fact, there will be less slots on a smaller motherboard but, unless you want to do so or connect other PCI cards (such as a dedicated sound card or an internal video capture card) you are interested in the number of slots on the board.

Concluding

In summary, to choose the motherboard you should consider:

Socket of the processor you chose
Case size
Quantity and type of ram you need
Number of PCI-E slots you need

WHICH SOCKET TO CHOOSE?

After the format, what distinguishes a motherboard from another is also the type of socket used, which, in short, allows you to connect the selected processor to the motherboard in question. On the market, in contrast to what happens to the format, it is possible to find only two types of sockets:

those of Intel , currently LGA 1151, LGA 2011-v3 (the latter also called LGA 2011-3) and the LGA 2066;
and those of AMD , which are the PGA AM4 and the LGA TR4.

Regardless of the brand and / or the type of socket you choose, the only thing you have to keep in mind when choosing a socket is that this will also affect the choice of processor to buy . As a result, if you buy a socket-equipped motherboard, for example, 1151 or AM4, you’ll need to buy a socket 1151 or AM4 processor, otherwise you will not be able to mount the processor on the motherboard in question.

WHICH CHIPSET DO YOU CHOOSE?

The last factor, but not important, that distinguishes a motherboard from another, is also the so-called chipset , which has the fundamental task of deploying and directing the information passing between the CPU, RAM, hard disk , and other components inside the system. Very often, in fact, except for special features, this chipset is the most affecting the price of a given motherboard .
With regard to the types of chipset on the market, Intel currently divides them into several categories ; AMD, on the other hand, divides them into AM4 platform and TR4 platform. In any case, if you want more information about the features offered by each of these types of chipsets, you may try to consult the respective pages I just mentioned.

OTHER CHARACTERISTICS

In addition to the appropriate format, the socket used and the chipset used, when you are about to buy a particular motherboard, you should also consider a number of other secondary features. Nowadays, a good motherboard should also offer support for all the latest available standards. Among these, the most important ones to be considered are:

the USB 3.1 standard , also called USB 3.1 Gen 2 , used for external peripherals;
the standard PCI Express 3.0, used to connect video cards but not only;
the standard SATA 3.0 , SATA Express and M.2 , used to connect hard disks, SSD and / or recorders / players.

In addition, a good motherboard should also have a sufficient number of expansion slots , especially for RAM memory, but also for PCI and / or PCI Express slots, and if you need to be interested, it should also support Wi- Fi and / or Bluetooth . As for brands available on the market, the world’s best known are ASUS , ASRock , Gigabyte, and MSI .

WHICH MOTHERBOARD TO BUY?

So at this point you should have finally figured out how to choose a motherboard . If, however, I still have to be undecided about which model to buy, then there is a list of commercially available products that I personally consider most interesting:

One of the options that you can pose if your laptop or laptop starts to work very slow is to change the processor . However, you have to keep in mind that it is much more complicated than doing it with a desktop PC . Moreover, there are equipment in which this change is impossible since the micro is directly welded to the motherboard . I want to change my laptops processor: Can I change the processor on my laptop

For a laptop, the CPU is sometimes changeable. But only within a small range.
1. If it is changeable, it has to be the same socket
2. The motherboard chipset has to know what to do with that new CPU.

Do you really need to change the processor?

You can change the micro thinking that it will solve all your problems and end up spending a lot of money and not reaching the benefits you are looking for.

A good way to deal with performance issues is to try to locate which device is suffering because not everything on a PC is the processor:

Slowness when playing. 3D games are becoming more demanding. If you have problems it is best to change the graphics card . A good strategy, if you are very jugon, is to invest every year or a year and a half, money on a good card.

Continuous blockages. The equipment goes like heels. This may be due to the large number of programs installed. In this case, it is best to format and start from scratch and if it does not solve add more RAM .

Global slowness. If the team is simply slow and willing to make an investment in it. It is best to add a good SSD . It is very important in laptops, as they not only increase their speed but also bring about a great saving of energy.

Always keep in mind that physical problems like heat affect performance.

If your equipment shuts down completely you must clean all the ventilation holes. Any desktop or laptop PC includes mechanisms that turn off the computer in case the temperature increases too much. I want to change my laptops processor: Can I change the processor on my laptop

What should I know before changing a laptop’s processor?

If you have it decided I would follow the following steps:

Consult the editor’s website. No one better than this can give you the information on whether or not you can change the processor and how to do it. You can even write an email to your support email. The most common assemblers are Sony, Toshiba, Acer, Asus, Samsung, etc.

Check the socket. If the socket is BGA directly forget about any type of processor change without changing the entire motherboard since in these is soldered. In addition your new micro, if you are not going to change the motherboard should be able to use the same socket.

Check the features of your motherboard . It must be able to accept the new micro. In certain cases, if the micro is more modern, a BIOS update may be necessary .

Check the characteristics of your RAM. To see if it is compatible. You have to keep in mind that in many current processors the memory controller is in its interior and not all the micros are compatible with all the memories.

Consumption. The manufacturer of the micro uses the TDP to indicate to the assembler how much is the maximum power that in theory the processor will dissipate. The assembler therefore creates the entire structure starting from this number. You can not therefore put a micro on a laptop designed for a much smaller TDP as it surely would end up burning.

Processor purchase conditions. Make sure you can return the processor in case it does not work. There is nothing more sad than spending money and not getting anything in return.

Use common sense. For in case you see that you can not continue. Be careful as you are touching the insides of the laptop and you can end up spoiling it. I want to change my laptops processor: Can I change the processor on my laptop

Acer Predator 17 X GTX 1080 Gaming laptop Review

by Staff · Aug 13, 2017

Acer’s new gaming equipment within its Predator range has seen the light in the form of a new gaming laptop Predator 17X and a surprising gaming desktop computer Predator G1 , which by its characteristics and reduced dimensions has managed to surprise To everyone present. Acer Predator 17 X GTX 1080 Gaming laptop Review?

Acer has tried to create a notebook that is attractive to the public for which it is intended , and for it has used a plastic chassis with the Predator logo on the cover, which combines with various shots in red. It is a bulky computer, with a thickness of 45 mm, 424 mm wide and 322 mm deep, similar to other powerful laptops to be able to cool them properly. It is something bigger and heavier than its predecessor Predator 17, but in return is quieter, although weighs 4.55 kg. Acer Predator 17 X GTX 1080 Gaming laptop Review?

In favor

Great graphics power.
Quality IPS panel with G-SYNC.
Overclocking capability .
Effective cooling system.
Keys for macros or action shortcuts.

Against

The design, by price, could have been better.
The keyboard illumination, although configurable, is basic.
Voluminous and heavy, something common in laptops to play.
The price does not match with the graphics card it includes.

The 17.3-inch screen is a good example of what can be included today in a notebook. In addition to having a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels – you can buy this model with a 4K screen, has a 75 Hz refresh and is compatible with the adaptive G-SYNC refresh to eliminate the annoying cropping of frames In some games. The quality in the reproduction of the colors is remarkable since it is also an IPS panel. Acer Predator 17 X GTX 1080 Gaming laptop Review?

ACER PREDATOR 17 X
PROCESSOR	Core i7-6820HK, 2.7 to 3.6 GHz, 4-core / 8-wire, 45-W TDP
GRAPH	GeForce GTX 980, 8GB GDDR5
MEMORY	32 GB, DDR4-2133
SCREEN	17.3 “1920 x 1080 px. 75Hz IPS with G-SYNC
STORAGE	SSD 256 GB PCIe, 1 TB hard drive, SD card reader
PORTS	1x Thunderbolt 3 (USB 3.1 Gen. 2 type C), 4x USB 3.0, 1x HDMI, 1x DisplayPort
CONNECTIVITY	2×2 Wi-Fi 802.11 ac (AC 1535), Bluetooth 4.1, Gigabit Ethernet
BATTERY	6000 mAh, source of 330 W
DIMENSIONS	424 x 322 x 45 mm
WEIGHT	4.55 kg
PRICE	2600 euros

This equipment includes a Core i7-6820HK processor , unlocked to raise frequencies. Starting with a base frequency of 2.7 GHz and 3.6 GHz turbo, which can be increased between 200 and 400 additional Mhz through the usual overclocking tools . It is accompanied by 32 GB of DDR4-2133 memory. In the storage section, it includes a 256 GB SSD and a 2.5-inch 1 TB hard drive. The graphics card is an 8GB GTX 980 , which yields more than the GTX 1060 with 6GB of mobility, which is in turn somewhat worse than its desktop equivalent. The nomenclature of the cards of the generation Pascal on the part of Nvidia can be a little confused.

On the left side you have two USB 3.0 and 3.5 mm audio connectors as well as the SD card reader. On the right has two other USB 3.0, a USB Type C compatible with Thunderbolt 3, an Ethernet, and the HDMI and DisplayPort video outputs, along with a Kensington security hitch. The WiFi connection is a 2×2 802.11 ac and has Bluetooth 4.1, with a battery of 6000 mAh, with Acer promising around 3 hours of autonomy.

The included keyboard has RGB illumination configurable by zone , but not by separate key. It is comfortable to use and the distance between keys is adequate to facilitate fluency when writing and playing, although they are a little tougher than I would like. On the left is a row of five configurable buttons for specific actions, as well as a button to change the global functionality of the buttons. Pressing it displays the function of each key in a popup window. The keys of the cursors and the WASD have a serigraphy in red and have a frame in the same color to differentiate quickly from the rest of keys.

The trackpad has its own illumination around it, which is activated and deactivated in conjunction with that of the logo area of the cover. It works well and responds quickly , although it remains one of the weaknesses of notebooks with Windows in general, although Microsoft has made great progress in this section in recent years with various driver updates. In this case, the touch panel is usually of less use in a gaming notebook since any player will use a mouse. Like the rest of the notebook, it attracts finger fat marks with a matte finish. Underneath it the right and left buttons are located, although you can configure touching the trackpad to click.

Removing the lower cover can access memory and storage. It includes two SODIMM memory slots , both occupied, and a SSD of Samsung, model SM951, oriented mainly to assemblers of equipment, although on that one can be placed another SSD of type M.2 with a special tray. The built-in model is 256 GB and type PCIe 3.0 x4, with a theoretical speed of 2150 MB / s of sequential reading and 1260 MB / s of sequential writing. The hard drive is a 1 TB model of HGST, owned by Western Digital, 7200 RPM. It is a safe value for these laptops because it is the brand that produces the most reliable hard drives at the same time as expensive.

THE PROCESSOR HAS A VERY GOOD PERFORMANCE WHEN COMPARED TO THE MORE USUAL CORE I7-6700HQ USED IN SIMILAR NOTEBOOKS BELOW 2000 EUROS

Finally, the equipment includes a powerful sound system of four speakers withsubwoofer , with good sound quality, and a DAC to provide a good experience when connecting a headset. Acer Predator 17 X GTX 1080 Gaming laptop Review?

Acer Predator 17 X: Performance

The Core i7-6820HK processor combines well with the GTX 980. It is a 45 W processor with frequencies from 2.7 to 3.6 GHz, the most powerful that can be found for laptop, attached to 32 GB of DDR4-2133 memory. The processor has a very good performance when compared to the more usual Core i7-6700HQ used in similar notebooks below 2000 euros. The possibility of uploading frequencies is a very interesting addition to not limit a possible rise of frequencies of the graphics card, or simply gain additional power when working.

	PCMARK 8 WORK HIGHER BEST	CINEBENCH R15 HIGHER BEST	OCTANE 2.0 HIGHER BEST	KRAKEN 1.1 LOWER THE BETTER
ACER PREDATOR 17 X, I7-6820HK, GTX 980	5542	697	37 418	989.9
ASUS GL502VS, I7-6700HQ, GTX 1070	5011	675	34 987	1087.5

The GTX 980 has the same basic features as the desktop version, and also maintains its maximum consumption of 165 W. This card has 2048 shaders that operate at 1190 MHz base, slightly raised from the 1126 MHz base that has the standard GTX 980 model, and 8 GB of GDDR5 memory at 7 Gbps. In addition you can raise the frequencies even more by using the overclocking utility preinstalled on the laptop Predator Sense .

The next comparative puts it face-to-face with two of its most current desktop rivals, such as the GTX 1060 6 GB and the RX 480 8 GB, which are between 250 and 350 euros, accompanied by an i7-6700K . It is quite good performance in comparison, although in some cases the processor may limit it a bit, as is the specific case of DiRT .

Display and storage

As a good high-end notebook, the Predator 17 X includes a good screen with 17.3-inch IPS panel with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. Its refresh is 75 Hz and includes G-SYNC adaptive refresh technology, which is always a good addition to a computer of these characteristics, for graphics card power and notebook price. Its maximum brightness is around 300 nits and its contrast in 1000: 1, which are normal values, and the anti-reflective layer that includes this matte panel is very effective, but slightly impairs the clarity of the letters. The latter will not be noticeable unless a screen that is not matte to the side, such as a second monitor, is available.

In the storage section, the inclusion of a PCIe-type SSD such as the Samsung SM951 gives it a fluidity more than adequate, although generally does not bring a noticeable performance difference with respect to other SSDs with SATA3 interface in everyday tasks. Sequential read and write speeds are not determinant in games, but to transfer large files between disks, but they help improve mixed read and write speeds. The SM951 includes MLC type memory, with good durability and good protection against errors. On the other hand, the included 1 TB of HGST hard drive throws the usual speed results of this type of 7200 RPM disks.

Acer Predator 17 X: Temperatures, noise and autonomy

Acer has paid special attention to the cooling system of the Predator 17 X , and the result is a very good temperature and noise level for such a system. After leaving DiRT for an hour running performance test, the GPU stays at 80 ° C and 77 ° C in CPU . Both values are good and normal within the type of mobility chip they are.

The distribution of heat in the equipment causes the keyboard to be unaffected by the high temperatures of the processor and graphics card, and the area of the cursors and the WASD keys do not exceed 30 to 31 ºC, concentrating the heat in the central zone Higher, which can reach 42 ° C. The bottom of the notebook can be heated well above these values, although they warn you on the lower lid with a warning of danger, hot air .

The noise is something that is also quite controlled and that Acer manages well playing with the temperatures of the chips. At rest it usually generates about 32 dBA in a room with 30 dBA of background noise, and in load does not usually exceed 42 to 45 dBA , being the moment of greater noise when the frequencies are raised, that reaches 46 to 48 dBA. There are much more noisy laptops without getting overclocking , surpassing 54 dBA, making it a relatively quiet computer . In most games using the laptop speakers will rather plug the noise of the fans.

In the autonomy section , there is not much to say, since this type of equipment is made to be used connected to the current. Playing does not last much longer than an hour, and with an office use can be reached around three hours of autonomy, or less if you make much use of the browser. It is just right to use it on the street in specific cases, but the combination of weight of the notebook with the weight of the power supply and the size of the computer make it little portable.

The Predator 17 X software

Among the programs included by Acer on this laptop is Predator Sense , which is the utility that is responsible for controlling certain key features. On the one hand, when it is connected to the power grid it is possible to quickly activate the turbo mode , which increases the processor speed by 300 MHz, taking advantage of an overclocking version .

In turn, it also raises the GPU frequency , but will directly affect the noise level and temperatures, and in practice will be unnecessary when using the laptop’s 1080p screen. If you connect to an external 1440p or 4K monitor – for eSports games like League of Legends or Overwatch – it might be interesting to scratch a few more FPS, and potentially make the difference between having a smooth experience.

Under the conditions of OC it is easy to put the CPU at 96 ° C with its fan running at 3900 RPM – in front of the usual 81 ° C in load -, and the GPU reaches 88 ° C with the fan running at 3900 RPM, with a maximum Of 4200 RPM, although it is not especially annoying, although it is necessary to play with headphones. The cooling is very good, since even after hours of games the keyboard area does not reach 31 or 32 ºC.

THE I7-6820HK PROCESSOR BLENDS SEAMLESSLY WITH THE GTX 980 TO SQUEEZE IT TO THE MAX.

In this application the macros are also configured , and you can choose between predefined or custom options. The keyboard’s illumination is divided into four distinct zones, and you can set its color or turn them off. Through the macros you can have the fan start a 100% moment to lower temperatures, among other options that end up being useful.

Acer Predator 17 X: Conclusion

Acer has a range of notebooks for gamers more than interesting, although the design option and materials of the same can be criticized. The matt plastic construction attracts the grease from your fingers, and you will need a little more cleaning than usual. But the selection of the hardware is successful , since the i7-6820HK processor combines perfectly with the GTX 980 to squeeze it to the maximum.

The strength of this notebook is operating temperatures and redirection of heat to areas where they will not disturb, and away from the usual movement keys in games. It is also a great point in your favor the noise level , which within the type of equipment that is can be considered as moderate, without getting bothered during use, either for office – at which point it may even go unnoticed – or games .

Among the computers currently on the market with the GTX 980 is the Acer Predator 17 X , which also includes other features that make it ideal for games or work, such as its IPS display or a powerful processor.

Both models, in addition to integrating the latest in processors and graphics hardware with Nvidia certification and are prepared for virtual reality devices (VR) such as Oculus, HTC Vive, OSVR and StarVR.

” Virtual reality offers an unlimited number of new possibilities, not only for gaming, but also for a wide variety of industries and applications in professional environments. As we saw today in our demonstrations, Acer wants to give users the tools they need both to play and to work in this new digital world. “ Commented Jerry Kao, president of Acer IT Products during the presentation, making clear The great power, present and future, of virtual reality.

It also has a 17.3-inch G-SYNC display, available in two resolutions: FHD IPS (1920 x 1080) and UHD IPS 4K (3840 x 2160) , both with NVIDIA G-SYNC technology that eliminates annoying effects like ‘Screen tearing’ or ‘stuttering’, thanks to a high refresh rate and the power of your GPU.

DDR4-2133 RAM, NVMe PCIe disks on a set of three SATA-SSDs, Killer DoubleShot Pro (allowing Ethernet and WiFi connections to work together) and three Thunderbolt ports with support for two 4K 60FPS displays, round off a laptop Gaming that will not go unnoticed.

The price of the gaming laptop Predator 17 X is

It was the great surprise of the presentation, the desktop computer Predator G1 (G1-710) , a team of high performance inside a compact frame that can be easily transported, something almost unheard of in the gaming sector that makes the Predator G1 On the machine for any ‘LAN Party’.

The balanced balance between compact size and great power. Acer Predator G1 features a 16-liter chassis that supports an NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics card (up to Titan X), a 6th generation Intel Core processor and up to 64GB of DDR4 RAM.

As for storage, it integrates a hard drive up to 4TB (7200 RPM) or 512GB SSD , plus two USB-C ports and two headset sliders on each side of the tower, which will allow players to place their G1 against the Wall and even have a hook available for use.

Razer Blade Pro GTX 1080 Gaming laptop review? If you are looking for a laptop to play and you have no problem in the budget, you always have to look at Razer , make authentic desktop computers in a laptop space, and design their pieces thinking about the most demanding players. The Razer Blade Pro is its most powerful model to date. Razer Blade Pro GTX 1080 Gaming laptop review?

Usually, laptops dedicated to the ” gamer ” market are usually quite bulky and heavy. The US launch of the new Razer Blade Pro aims to end this custom, without neglecting the high performance needed to run the latest video games and programs. The team boasts a design of 2.24 cm thick and a weight that does not reach 3 kg (smaller than other similar notebooks, but equally heavy).

Okay, there are brutal, more powerful and extravagant options , but if we still have a portable computer and a major design and engineering exercise, without too flashy elements, this Blade Pro should be at the top of the range of possibilities. That yes, the interested can be preparing the 4,200 euros that ask for him.

Much money, too, but it is more or less justifiable for some to review what we find inside and outside this Pro model. A team that is not afraid of the most demanding game, nor of virtual reality : Razer Blade Pro GTX 1080 Gaming laptop review

Mechanical and colorful keyboard

Do players like the mechanical keyboard? So mechanical keys on the new Razer laptop. As you can see it has the full size, and in the area where the numerical part usually goes, they have placed a trackpad of generous dimensions .

The ultra low profile mechanical keys – with a short stroke – have switchs with activation and reset points, with an activation force of 65 grams.

Both the keyboard and the trackpad are Razer Chroma technology that allows you to change the color in 16 million tones.

Razer Blade Pro GTX 1080 Gaming laptop review

It is interesting to see that Razer will like more Europe and will bring its other laptops to markets like Germany, France and UK. We talk about the 14-inch Blade (2,000 euros), or the Stealth Blade 12.5 inches (1,100 euros).

The new Razer team has a large screen of 17.3 “, enough to comfortably play the vast majority of current video games. Along its 43.94 centimeters diagonal, presents games, videos and photos in Full HD Thanks to its resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels . Its anti-glare system allows you to enjoy all types of multimedia content in adverse lighting conditions.

Instead of a numeric keypad, the Razer Blade Pro has a small touch panel mounted under ten keys (known as Switchblade ). These keys have a small LED display and are fully customizable using the Synapse 2.0 software equipped with the computer. The launch of the new laptop comes with new combinations of macros designed for both games and other types of professional programs.

High-end processor, mid-range graphics.

Equipped with the new range of Intel Haswell processors, it mounts an Intel Core i7 (i7-4700HQ) quad-core processor with a speed of 2.4 GHz . For graphics reproduction, a Geforce GTX 765M 2 Gb GDDR5 GPU has been chosen . Interestingly the Razer Blade Pro runs with 8GB of RAM , when many of its competitors mount 16GB of memory on board. It also features the Dolby Home Theater v4 sound system and a storage capacity of 128, 256, or 515 Gb in SSD format .

The equipment works perfectly with all the games present in the market thanks to its 32 frames per second. However, for the games that are to come as ” Battlefield 4 “, the laptop may run short on graphics card . Instead of the GeForce GTX 765M mid-range model , as with the RAM theme, including the Geforce GTX 780M high-end chip would have been a better choice, especially since such a GPU is what any player Expects to be in a team of this price.

Slightly noisy at maximum power

Being a notebook dedicated to running the latest video games as well as professional editing programs, the graphics processor will sometimes run close to its power limit and will heat up more than it should. To cool it, the fan increases its revolutions per second, thus avoiding overheating of the equipment. This, of course, will cause a slight increase in equipment noise . On the other hand, as long as the use of Razer Blade Pro is for office work, internet browsing or video calling, the equipment will remain almost completely silent.

The powerful Razer Blade Pro is a slim laptop to be a gamer, offers a wide range of configuration and customization options, especially thanks to the Switchblade user interface , which gives it a unique touch. It also features a surprisingly long battery life for a notebook with this screen size. But there is also something to complain about: For a team (close to £ 2,000) specifically designed for use with video games , the GPU mounted on the computer is not what could be expected, and we are looking for something scarce to support video games That come, without forgetting the high price of the laptop.

The battle of high-end gamer laptops has only just begun. The introduction of the new Haswell processors is causing a rapid evolution (as in smartphones and PCs) in these equipments. However, this power must be accompanied by a latest generation graphics chip, as well as a large amount of RAM. The Razer Blade Pr or has struck a heavy blow on the table that will no doubt provoke a reaction in the competition.

HP omen 17 gtx 1070 Gaming Laptop review? Laptops dedicated to the gaming segment have benefited from the new batch of dedicated graphics from NVIDIA, and HP has been one of those who have harnessed that power by integrating it into their equipment. The HP Omen 17 is a clear example of that ambition. HP omen 17 gtx 1070 Gaming Laptop review?

Desktop Performance on a Laptop
Good cooling and loudness

Against

The keyboard and especially the touchpad are upgradeable
The screen is somewhat untapped with that 1080p resolution.
Unambitious design, little attention to detail and materials
Battery life is short

The large format notebook stands out precisely because it has an entire NVIDIA GTX 1070 inside , a graph that certainly gives a new dimension to the graphics capabilities of this notebook. We have been able to analyze it (and enjoy it) for a few days, and these are our conclusions. HP omen 17 gtx 1070 Gaming Laptop review

A design that does not seek minimalism | HP omen 17 gtx 1070 Gaming Laptop review

We’re not going to fool ourselves: a 17-inch notebook – 17.3, to be exact – is not small. It is never going to be, and that is also true of the Omen 17, which does not hide the fact that here the important thing is not to be more or less bulky , but to offer some benefits that fulfill in the field for which it was designed.

That makes outwardly we find a team that as we say is great and also does not resort to any trick to hide that volume : the frames surrounding the screen are giant, especially in the lower and outer, and that makes The keyboard also appears to be small in view of the entire surface that is on the outside. In fact although the keyboard (with numeric keypad included) and the touchpad are generous, there is plenty of space around it.

That surface, like the front shell, has a dark finish that stands out by a pattern of gray and black diagonals that without being especially aggressive if it equips the team with a certain exterior personality. So does the Omen family logo, which stands out clearly on the front of the team with a very lively red color. This is the only representative sample that we find a gaming team , otherwise it might seem that this is a large format notebook “normal”.

The thickness of the equipment also leaves no doubts about the intentions of HP with this format: those 33 mm make us to a team “fat” and also has a high weight that amounts to 3.25 kg. If we are strict to them we would have to add the 808 grams of a power supply that is equally large and heavy: nothing to do with sources of Ultrabooks and convertibles in which are also sought contained dimensions.

There are elements of design that do of course make clear that this is a laptop prepared for gamers: the first is the aforementioned logo, but it is the red backlit keyboard that stands out most, something that joins the typography of each letter , Very different – as is usual – to that of conventional equipment, much more “formal” in this sense.

The materials, though, are plastic all over the laptop, except in the frames surrounding the screen. At the bottom we find a small expansion bay to access the two memory slots, and if we want to access more components we will have to open the entire lower deck.

In terms of connections we find a curious situation: most of them are on the right side , something that can represent a problem for the right users that can be found with more cables or connected peripherals than they would like. On the left side, we have a USB 3.0 port and headphone and microphone connectors, with a prominent ventilation grid.

On the right side we find the SD card reader, Mini Display Port connector, 2 USB 3.0 ports, HDMI port, RJ-45 connector and the power connector. There are no ports on the front or rear, where we find two other generous ventilation grids designed to keep the temperature under control inside this equipment.

Some specifications worthy of a laptop for gamers

There are many advantages to having such a bulky chassis, and here HP has been able to include a series of high-power components that would normally only be found on desktop computers.

There are two that make it clear that the HP Omen 17 does not walk with little girls. The Intel Core processor i7-6700HQ guarantee ample power in all the tasks that the team let up, but if there is a star that is the dedicated graphics card, all NVIDIA GeForce 1070 GTX with 8GB of GDDR5 video memory that Of course give a lot of room to enjoy games to the highest quality in this team.

There are however some curious decisions, such as integrating a 1080p panel, something that certainly helps in battery consumption but may disappoint some users who also seek to work at higher resolution with this diagonal. The screen density of 127 dpi is decent, but to solve this “limitation” HP also offers a version with 4K panel that logically increases the price of the notebook.

The quality of the image on this IPS screen is really remarkable, with good contrast, but the most striking feature is the support of NVIDIA G-Sync technology , allowing games to be enjoyed in perfect sync and take advantage of the frequency of Refresh 75 Hz of this screen to improve the gaming experience thanks to the collaboration with the manufacturer’s dedicated graphics.

Also highlighting those 16 GB of memory that give room for maneuver for current and future games, as well as that Gigabit Ethernet connector that is vital to get the most out of online games. Bang & Olufsen’s stereo speakers perform very decently, and the integration of the Intel RealSense camera that allows identification through iris recognition is also welcome. Its operation with Windows Hello technology is, of course, fantastic.

Some users may miss the traditional DVD player that was part of this computer in previous iterations. HP has decided not to integrate it in this case, but we can always connect an external one. The storage section is very well covered by both the high performance 256GB SSD and the 1TB hard drive.

Where there are disappointments is in the section of the connection ports, where the absence of USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports is important, but it is even more the fact of not having some USB-C port that gives access to the advantages of the Thunderbolt 3 connectivity .

Performance: nothing that sets it apart from a powerful desktop PC

The performance tests of the Omen 17 do not disappoint, of course: that hardware configuration behaves in an exceptional way , and the GTX 1070 is a guarantee in a team dedicated to games.

We have been able to verify this in the first place in the synthetic tests: both the general purpose (PCMark 8 Home and Creative) and those dedicated to evaluate the graphics power (3DMark) the behavior has been precisely what can be expected of these components. In fact there are no differences with the performance of a desktop computer in this area.

We have also evaluated the behavior in a couple of tests that allow us to analyze the performance of the storage unit, which although it is remarkably high does not reach the maximum levels expected , especially in the case of an M.2 NVMe unit that we expected in readings That would reach 2,000 MB / s quietly. The performance of GeekBench 4 is fantastic, another fact that confirms that good general behavior of the hardware.

ASUS G Series G501, ASUS GL753 ROG Gamer Laptop, asus rog, ASUS ROG G752VL-UH71T, Asus ROG GL551, ASUS ROG GL552VW-DH74, ASUS ROG GL553, Asus ROG Strix GL502, ASUS ROG Strix GL753VD

These synthetic tests were completed with tests on various video games, which ran at 1080p (the maximum resolution of this screen) and were set to high detail level. In Dirt Rally, the frame rate exceeds 130 fps without problems , while Rise of the Tomb Raider also achieves exceptional rates ranging from 100 to 110 fps

These rates can fall logically if we connect the laptop to an external monitor with a higher resolution, of course, but of course make it clear that we have plenty of power to enjoy a fantastic gaming experience that among other things is rewarded on that screen by The G-Sync support.

The GTX 1070 sets the bar for full throttle at higher resolutions, so those interested in the 4K model could take advantage of it with no problems in that mode and even for some games in 4K as well . Another area in which we can take advantage of this power is the virtual reality: although we have not been able to test this scenario, both the graphic and the other components invite to it.

The sonority of the equipment is very well controlled, and there help the generous ventilation grilles and the cooling system of a equipment that activates those fans when it is subjected to much load – for example, in those games and benchmarks – and that emits a snort Modest and, of course, bearable. Here HP has done a good job at controlling that section.

What does suffer is the autonomy of the team, which logically in games will be significantly reduced. The 95Wh battery is decent for a “normal” computer, but with these features hardware consumption (even with the 1080p display) is triggered. We have achieved an average of about 4 hours of battery life in a conventional use (web browsing, some music and video), which logically can be shortened (more than half, we fear) if we use the laptop without power to play.

HP Omen 17

A team of these characteristics is clearly oriented to those who want to take their game sessions to everywhere without giving up that great graphic power, and the fact is that in that section the Omen 17 does not disappoint in most sections.

Yes there are buts, of course: the construction and the design are little remarkable, but is that in addition the keyboard and the touchpad are also not the best we have seen. With this room for maneuver we would have appreciated a slightly more spacious keyboard , especially in details such as the cursor keys dedicated to an unfair space for a gaming team.

The touchpad also does not fulfill too much joy, and although the sensitivity and the touch are adequate, it is not its construction and response to some actions like the pressure for the left or right click in the corners. That’s where you detect certain “cheap” finishes that demerit a computer that with that price and that configuration should take care of these and other details.

The sound, with a generous grid for the stereo speakers (developed with the collaboration of Bang & Olufsen), is also adequate, but again with that room for maneuver due to the thickness and size of the equipment perhaps could have been more spectacular. In games and video content behaves well, but if we raise the volume too much we will notice some distortion of the bass . The utility included to customize the behavior of these speakers can help fine-tune that sound quality, of course.

One of the highlights we have, as we said at the beginning, on the webcam with RealSense support . Logging in to the screen, without the need to enter passwords, is really comfortable, and although sometimes the process fails because they are not located at the proper distance or angle, the behavior of this component invites you to take advantage of it constantly.

In the matter of software we are with a Windows 10 Home 64 bits to which HP has added some own tools and others external. Bloatware makes its appearance with solutions like Netflix, Candy Crush, McAfee LiveSafe, or Dropbox. Without being a particularly annoying set of applications, we do return to that demand that the computer arrive totally “clean” at the hands of users, who especially in this range probably know very well whether they will need to download an antivirus or clients As mentioned above.

HP Omen 17 Conclusion

Many are HP’s successes with a team that despite not having an aesthetic too “gaming” yes that fulfills well in his bet hardware: few portable computers can compete in process power and graphics with this HP beast, and That is evident in the tests we have been able to perform.

It is a pity however that attention to certain details has not completed a set that could have stood out even more. The keyboard and touchpad compliment each other, as does the sound. The 1080p matte screen is perhaps decompensated by the fact that the GTX 1070 gives you the freedom to play many titles in 1440p and even 4K, but fortunately there is a 4K screen option if the user wants to take that leap (and pay).

It is a pity that HP have not integrated USB 2.0 Gen 2 ports at least, but above all it is disappointing that they do not “prepare the equipment for the future” with at least one USB-C connector with Thunderbolt 3 interface. It’s like we say a negative detail that joins a design not remarkable and that touchpad below expected.

If we can forgive those failures we will of course find ourselves first and foremost a candidate for those who want to enjoy power and portability . It is true that for that price we can build a very well armed PC, but if you are looking to be able to “transfer” your gaming sessions wherever you go, the proposal offered by HP Omen 17 is of course interesting.

Gigabyte aero 14 1060 review best i7 gaming laptop

by Staff · Aug 13, 2017

Gigabyte aero 14 1060 review best i7 gaming laptop? A laptop to play more or less in conditions is something quite complicated to find, and if you find it there are always different problems to deal with: the price is very high, the designs are extravagant , and in terms of dimensions, they are usually dead . Except Razer and some other specialized brand, the market is quite short if you are demanding. Gigabyte aero 14 1060 review best i7 gaming laptop?

Not long ago we present the Gigabyte Aero 14 , a product more than interesting in this complicated world: you have quite decent dimensions, the design inside and out is quite good, and well, its specifications are first rate. If they update it and they put an Nvidia card of new batch , it becomes a good offer. Gigabyte aero 14 1060 review best i7 gaming laptop?

It was not only designed to play, it is a powerful and discreet team, many will also want to work. The Aero 14 is a notebook based on an aluminum chassis, and as you can see in the images, there is also room for color with three options: black, green and orange. Colors very related to the ‘gaming’ world, in a very discreet design.

The Aero 14 has been designed for those who want to play on the laptop, but do not want to sacrifice the possibility of carrying it on

The main processor is an Intel Core i7 from the Skylake family . The computer can have up to 32GB of RAM in DDR4 format, and there is space for two SSD disks (M.2, PCIe 3.0 x2 interface).

In the graphic part we have two options Nvidia, or a GeForce GTX 965M or a GTX 970M , which in any case will have to do with an IPS screen with 2,560 × 1,440 pixels resolution.

Obviously it’s also a perfect team to work on, for little specs we’re going to miss about a dessert. Also has a good size and in black color is quite discreet

Trying to reclaim the attention of players, the keyboard has programmable options with which to simplify combinations or make shortcuts. As for connectors, we have a USB 3.1 Type-C port, three USB 3.0 ports, card reader, and video outputs as important as HDMI 2.0 and miniDisplayPort. Gigabyte aero 14 1060 review best i7 gaming laptop?

For those who were more curious in its dimensions, say that the thickness of the Aero 14 is 19.9 millimeters and weighs 1.89 kilos . Nothing out of the world if we look at roosters of their size, but very good numbers if what we compare is with other laptops to play. We have for example a Razer Blade that is thinner – 17.9 mm – and has the same screen size. In the Gigabyte model there is more battery and room to change components.

At the moment there is no more information about its sale, nor prices, but we already know that Gigabyte does not go very high with prices, so it will be interesting to follow in his footsteps.

Despite the eye-catching ingredients, Gigabyte ensures that your computer can have a range of 10 hours with moderate usage – the battery is 94.24 WHr -. That is using the integrated graphics, nor can I think of that game life with an NVIDIA at full capacity.

There are many things that we know about Computex, almost everything. The exterior is the same, with the same colors – black, green and orange – and design elements. Also the same 14 inch screen , with a resolution of 2,560×1,440 pixels and IPS panel.

Gigabyte has just announced the launch of what is surely its laptop with higher performance by size , and is probably one of those with a higher ratio of these the world, the Gigabyte Aero 14 . It is a compact and lightweight but with an overwhelming power . Of course, quality and power come at a price.

We started with the design. The Aero 14 Gigabyte has as its name indicates the size of a laptop with 14-inch screen, which in this case is QHD (2560 x 1440 pixels). It has a thickness of only 1.9 centimeters and weighs 2 kg, so it will be very comfortable to move and transport to be able to use it anywhere we want.

However, do not be fooled by its small weight and size, because inside it houses a real beast. To begin with, Gigabyte has integrated an Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor with Skylake architecture, a processor that has four physical cores and eight process threads thanks to Intel’s hyperthreading technology running at a maximum speed of 3.5 Ghz.

This powerful processor is accompanied by up to 32 GB of DDR4 RAM at 2133 Mhz (basic model carries 8 GB, but can be installed up to 32 GB), up to 1 Tb of storage M2 SSD at 2000 MB / s in two units (Has two sockets, so you can create disk RAID systems), and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M graphics card, although this can be improved by installing instead a GeForce GTX 970M.

In the section of connectivity does not fall short, as it incorporates three USB 3.0 ports plus a USB 3.1 port with reversible Type-C connector. It also has a HDMI 2.0 video output compatible with 4K resolution, plus a mini DisplayPort and a 3.5mm minijack audio output. Of course it has WiFi Dual Band AC and Bluetooth 4.1 to complete the section of connectivity. Also, its keyboard is backlit, and despite the power of its hardware, its battery 94.24 Wh ensures a very decent autonomy.

Of course, power and quality come at a price. Gigabyte has not confirmed this point yet, nor does the availability date, but it is being talked about that 2,000 euros will not go down. Now, given its hardware, it will certainly be worth it for those users who need this power anywhere.

For those who were more curious in its dimensions, say that the thickness of the Aero 14 is 19.9 millimeters , weighing only 1.89 kilos . There is some notebook model devised to play thinner, such as the Razer Blade with its 17.9 millimeters, and the same screen size.

Jumping to Nvidia GTX 1060 | Gigabyte aero 14 1060 review best i7 gaming laptop

The team was originally introduced with GeForce GTX 965M or GTX 970M, but now is the time to upgrade and move on to a more than interesting Nvidia GTX 1060 – comes with 6GB of GDDR5 RAM -. With it we can load almost everything in the market in 1080p format, another thing is to stretch more the performance, but for a laptop we find an ideal solution.

As for processor, because it has not decided to wait for Kaby Lake-H, take the sixth generation processors of Intel, more specifically the Core i7-6700HQ . You can choose with 8, 16, even 32GB of RAM, and you can put up to 1TB in SSD format (there is room for two disks).

With this important update, the brand already advertises it as a laptop prepared for virtual reality . One of its strengths is undoubtedly the battery of 94.24 WHr , which is capable of giving him about ten hours of life, according to official figures.

Attempting to reclaim the attention of players, the keyboard has programmable options with which to simplify combinations or make shortcuts. As for connectors, we have a USB 3.1 Type-C port, three USB 3.0 ports, card reader, and video outputs as important as HDMI 2.0 and miniDisplayPort.

How much does this animal cost? For a configuration with Core i7-6700HQ, GeForce GTX 1060, 16GB of RAM and 512GB on SSD, come out for $ 1,700. The model it replaces, with the old Nvidia, leaves for $ 1,350. Prices in Europe are much more expensive, at least the ones we see on Amazon .

he Asus ROG GL551JW-DS71 has an Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M graphics card with 2 GB of memory, an Intel Core i7-4720HQ processor, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB hard drive . Like all gaming laptops in its price range, the GL551 will overheat a bit, but it stays at a better temperature than the other computers we’ve tested. The Asus screen might be better, but it is difficult to find an affordable gaming notebook with a decent screen. Despite these shortcomings, the GL551 is undoubtedly the best cheap gaming laptop on the market.

For all its characteristics and its appearance we consider it the best to play. League of Legends, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Devil, Minecraft, Wow … You will not have performance problems.

The Asus ROG GL551JW-DS71, without a doubt, is the best laptop to play for all those who have a tight budget. It is powerful, cheap and well made . All of the cheap gaming laptops we tested have similar game performance, but we think the Asus is the best because it’s cheaper and has better build quality than the rest.

This computer is almost 1,000 euros but we have found an offer that costs just over 900 euros . Click here to access .

Like all the cheap gaming laptops we’ve tested, the GL551 warms up more than we’d like, reaching the surface at a maximum temperature of 38.8 degrees. However, the bottom of the chassis and WASD keys are kept at a reasonable 33.3 or 34.4 degrees Celsius, which we can not say of the rest of the models. Also , the fans are not loud enough to distract us while we play or watch a movie, the keyboard is back lit and the trackpack is decent.

7 Best of less than $600 dollars (Acer Aspire E5-573G) | Best Gaming Laptop under 1000

Serious gamers will laugh at the idea that there might be a gaming laptop under € 600 worth. Usually computers for tight budget games do not let you play the latest news with the best screen features. But if you do not mind high definition but want to play without fluency you have very interesting options that will not break your bank account.

A gaming laptop of less than 600 euros can have many disadvantages, however we have found the best option for this price . This is the case of the Acer Aspire E5-573G which costs around 500 euros , and for such a cheap price you have a 1080p screen, 8GB RAM , an i5-5200U processor and what matters most in this section, some Nvidia graphics GeForce 940M . It includes a processor 5200U which is a considerable improvement over the mid-range notebooks, in case you have little 1TB of internal memory so you can put the files, movies and data you want.

Great for people who play frequently . They will love to find this graph that is best for a gaming laptop for less than 600 euros . Undoubtedly it is the best card for this price. It is quite similar to the GeForce 840M but has 5% more speed that makes the graphics go a little faster than previous models. This makes it possible to play the last games of this year with a medium detail graphics with WXGA (1366 x 768) resolution. The most powerful games can be played smoothly if you put the graphics to something less resolution and less ambient detail.

The Core i5 that has makes to surpass the old models of 5 to 15%. In gaming laptops this means the ability to play the latest games in high resolutions , and for other tasks that demand more like multimedia, productivity and demanding programs . Again with more than 1,000GB gives you lots of space, although being a HDD will go somewhat slower than if compared to a hard disk SSD. In the case that a user wants, can change that hard disk without problem.

It has a screen of 15.6 inches with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 that although it is not the most advanced IPS panel goes great. It is also true that viewed from the side deteriorates the clarity, although this does not happen in most sessions. It comes with its Windows 10 that is designed to be tactile but works perfectly in the normal way. Remember that in this Asus there is no touch screen option.

8 More expensive option. Lenovo Y50-70 (£ 1,300) | Best Gaming Laptop under 1500

If you can not find the Asus ROG GL551 or if its price goes up, instead we recommend the Lenovo Y50. We tried the configuration of 987 euros with an Intel Core i7-4710HQ, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M with 4 GB of graphics memory, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB hybrid hard drive, but buy the configuration with a Solid state of 512 GB if you find it at the same price. (Do not buy the model with the 4K resolution screen.) It is more expensive, the screen is not too big and, anyway, it is impossible to play games of that resolution with a GTX 860m graphics card).

The Lenovo Y50 has better keyboard and speakers than the Asus GL551 and also keeps its components much cooler than the other cheap laptops we tested. However, it was not our main recommendation because the WASD keys and Lenovo buttons were very hot at the end of our game marathon and it is the worst screen of the three finalists. In addition, the build quality of the Y50 is lower than our chosen and is more expensive.

In short, if we recommend the Asus above the Y50 was because the Lenovo became hotter in the areas of high contact, despite the internal components remain cooler. After an hour playing Path of Exile, the WASC keys were at 43.22 degrees and the bottom of the laptop at 44.33. They are not temperatures that burn on the touch, but are too high to be comfortable.

Lenovo’s surface temperature was also the highest of the three finalists, 49.22 at the top of the keyboard. Its CPU stayed much cooler than the Asus, 73 ° C versus 77 ° C, however its graphics card was warmer, 70 ° C to 65 ° C. Like the Asus GL551, the Lenovo fans They are audible but not annoying .

Should I buy it?

Not everyone has 2,000 euros to spend on a high-end gaming notebook with a graphics card powerful enough to play all the most complex current games. For the rest of us, a laptop to play cheap is the best option, especially if you are students or other people, that you want to play, but you have a tight budget and you need the computer to be portable. Since the best cheap laptops have 15 inches, they have also become a great alternative for those people who, in addition to playing, need a laptop to do other tasks .

This is the aspect that we have rated as the best laptop for gaming.

If possible, we recommend that you save to buy a desktop computer or a gaming laptop with a more powerful graphics card . A PC of 1200 euros, will always be much more powerful than a 2000 gaming laptop and, in addition, even mid-low range, can always be updated in the future. Saving for a high-end gaming laptop is also a better idea than buying a cheap one because you will be able to play intensively with excellent graphics for years, rather than for months.

The cheap gaming laptops are limited by their graphics card, a component that you can never upgrade . In addition, these cheap computers also lack an SSD, so if you want to update later, you will have to pay an extra. In short, if you buy a cheap computer you will have to put more money to update the SSD and improve the RAM, while if you buy a high-end computer, you will already have SSD and 16 to 32 GB of RAM. You should keep in mind that a cheap gaming laptop is a temporary solution that will last you a couple of years while a high end PC or laptop is an investment.

A good budget notebook to play usually has an Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M (Maxwell) or a graphics card GTX 965M , the most expensive notebooks, instead, have a 970M or 980M. In the next section we will delve into this idea. To get an idea of what games you can or can not play (and with what settings), you can take a look at Computercheck Notebookcheck’s very useful summary of notebook graphics cards.

For example, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Far Cry 4, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, Watch Dogs and Thief all run all operate above 30 fps to 1080p, in Ultra configuration and with the GTX 970M. Those games need to be run with a medium-high setting to run above 30 fps on the GTX 860M. If the game you want to play you see that does not work as well as you want with the GTX 860M, it is clear that you have to buy a desktop computer or a more powerful gaming laptop .

How have we chosen?

After choosing the criteria that we would follow to evaluate the hardware, we look at the websites of the largest laptop manufacturers such as Lenovo, Asus, Acer, Alienware, MSI, HP, Toshiba and others. In addition, we also look for stores such as Clevo, iBuyPower, Origin Digital Storm, among others. However, we did not find any laptop that met the set hardware and price requirements.

After that, we had to create a list of laptops that fit our criteria and which, in addition, had positive reviews from trusted sources such as CNET, AnandTech, Engadget, Laptop Mag, PCMag, or Notebookcheck.

We removed all laptops that did not fit our requirements (less than 1200 euros, Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M, Intel Core i7 4700HQ or better and at least 8 GB of RAM). We also discarded machines that, according to user comments, had insurmountable defects (such as severe overheating). In the end, we were left with three finalists: the Lenovo Y50, the Asus ROG GL551JM and the MSI GE60 Apache Pro.

What we look forward to! Best Gaming Laptop under 1000

Asus has announced the upgrade of the model we have recommended, the GL552 , by June 2015. This update will feature a fourth-generation processor, the Intel Core i7 quad-core, and a red backlit LED keyboard. Also, you will probably have a hard drive or an SSHD with the option to upgrade to an SSD. The price or the exact launch date has not been announced, but we will be attentive to tell you all the details.

Nvidia launched without much fuss the new GeForce GTX 965M graphics card at CES 2015 including it in the MSI GE62 Apache. According to Notebookcheck, the 965M performs similarly to the GTX 870M, but it is not as fast as our selection in the high-end notebook section, the GTX 970M. We look forward to seeing the GTX 965M on more inexpensive laptops to play new or updated this year.

Also at CES 2015, MSI announced a redesign of GE60 mentioned above . The new GE62 Apache looks promising and comes with Nvidia’s new GeForce GTX 965M graphics card. We took a quick look at the CES and were impressed with the keyboard, the trackpad, the screen and overall build quality. We expect the new dual fans to keep the GE62 cooler than its predecessor. This 1166 euros configuration of the GE62 Apache fits within our budget, so we will test it when it is available.

Another manufacturer that also had things to say at CES 215 was Acer. Its novelty was called Aspire V 17 Nitro . It has an Intel Core i7-4710HQ, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M graphics card and will go on sale in February from 1256 euros. In addition, Acer will update the V 15 and V 17 in March with a GTX 960M graphics card . Both updates look promising, so we promise to review them as they become available.

Others to note (but we do not recommend)

Finally two more models that I think we can keep in mind but that are honestly not worth as much as the previous two. Basically they are worth more than 1,000 euros and the benefits they offer in many cases are lower than the previous models, but we present them for the sake of information.

The best cheap laptop to play is the Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7-591G-77FS of 1032 euros. With an Intel Core i7-4720HQ processor, an Nvidia GeForce GTX960M graphics card with 4 GB of dedicated memory, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB hard drive combined with a 256 GB solid state drive, this model has the most Powerful and the most adjusted price of how many laptops to play came to market this year.

If you have a tighter budget, we recommend the Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7-591G-70RT 807 euros – which has half the RAM without solid state drive, but includes 4 GB of graphics memory. Our finalist, however, has been the MSI GE62 Apache 987 082 euros because it has a better keyboard, but does not have SSD and only has 2GB of graphics memory. Keep in touch for future updates!

Conclusion about gaming laptops

The Asus ROG GL551JW-DS71 is the best gaming laptop economically undoubtedly, as it has great features for the price it has, it is well built and is the cheapest in its category. It has a comfortable keyboard and keeps the parts that are most in contact with the user cooler than the other computers in its price range we have tested. Not perfect, but no laptop to play cheap is for now .

Needless to say you will not find any laptop to play for less than 500 euros worth it. Remember that on our website cheap laptops we recommend the ones that we think are better quality and price .

It is quite difficult to gather all this information or try the models. Go to events, ask them, etc. So if you have served the information do not hesitate to comment, +1 vote, or any social action with which you can help us.

That means, however, that the games are optimized for the hardware of your choice.

No one is perfect, but every entry in this tidy list is highly specked and ready to conquer the hell out of your crowded Steam library. 10 best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

1. Asus ROG Strix GL502 | Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

Strix ROG GL502 equips the new processors Intel 6th generation ® Core ™ and graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX ™. Enjoy the latest games in a compact and lightweight format. It is the Strix GL502VS , and the variant GL502VM, laptops that will have no problem to calm the demands of the players, but also takes care of the design and dimensions to make a fairly decent set, very much in line with what Razer does . Before going into more detail say that we are before a team of 15 inches .

The main difference between the two models, which share looks, is the graphics card introduced in its chassis: for the GL502VS we offer an Nvidia GTX 1070 and for the GL502VM is lowered to a GTX 1060 – in both cases with 8GB of RAM. I think they are ideal solutions to fit in a laptop and if above does not condition the fact that it is compact, better than better.

With a look that gamers will like, it is also somewhat more discreet than the style in this market. The best is the balance achieved between size and power

The complete dimensions of the equipment are of 39×26,59×2,99 centimeters, and its weight goes to 2.3 kilos . Okay, it’s not the best in all of these dimensions, but let’s not forget that we get the best of Nvidia in there, accompanied by a hardware chord:

Powered by the sixth generation of Intel processors, the Core i7 6700HQ is accompanied by 32GB of RAM and different storage options: always 1TB on mechanical disk, and 128 to 512GB in SSD format.

There are two screens to choose from , both 15.6 inches and LED technology. The first is UHD, the second Full HD, and in both cases we are presented with an anti-glare finish, Nvidia G-Sync compatibility and a 60Hz refresh. These devices carry HDMI and miniDisplayPort ports to connect them to an external monitor, or hook us to virtual reality.

The design has its striking accents, but we will not see in it the most extreme ‘gaming’ laptop, so possibly interesting to a wider audience than it seems. We see that there is a keyboard with backlighting with anti-ghosting function and rollover of 30 keys.

We will have to wait a bit for the information regarding prices and availability.

2. Alienware 13 R3 | Second Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

Alienware 13 R3 Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

When it comes to sheer power, the Alienware 13 proves that size doesn’t matter. As one of the smallest VR-ready systems available, the lightweight system makes a portable Oculus Rift and HTC Vive a reality. If that’s not enough, the Alienware 13 is a stone-cold fox, with its slimmed-down dimensions and a supervivid OLED display that’s sure to attract a fair number of onlookers. You also get a cushy keyboard that is perfect for typing reports or dishing out digital doom, an impressive audio system and respectable transfer speeds.

The Alienware 13’s thick, heavy design doesn’t support a system sold in its price tier, and the most important component – the GPU – is the same in every model. You’re getting a GTX 1060 no matter how much you spend.

3. HP Omen 17 | Best HP Gaming Laptop in 2017

HP Omen 17 Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

A 17-inch laptop to play ? It seems that it is the only field where computers of this size are being kept alive, since this type of products allows to create solutions relatively easy to transport, with much power and incorporated screen. Something that many level players value, for the possibility of taking the teams to the different local battles.

Its full name is HP Omen , and it has different configurations that differ mainly by the screen chosen – the appearance is practically the same – all with an anti-reflection treatment:

15.6 inches with Full HD resolution
15.6 inches with UHD resolution (3,840×2,160 pixels)
17.3 inches with Full HD resolution
17.3 inches with UHD resolution (3,840×2,160 pixels)

Like the screens, there are plenty of options to choose from, ranging from Core i3 to i7 processors, or from 4 to 16GB of RAM, to a 512GB SSD. Prices start in the United States of 900 dollars, but to go to Omen 17 we have to pay 1,600 dollars .

The most interesting of the equipment, and what seems a norm this week, is the presence of the new graphics for laptops of Nvidia , specifically a GeForce GTX 1070 with 8GB of memory for her alone. It seems that it will also be presented in option to the more “small” GTX 1060.

We do not forget to mention that there is a mini DisplayPort port, designed to connect external screens or the inevitable virtual reality

It will be difficult to keep alive a long time to a team with these specifications, but HP assures that there is battery to feed it five and a half hours (we do not know to which specific version it refers).

I ended up with minor but interesting details for many: HP Wide Vision HD camera with two noise canceling microphones, speakers signed by Bang & Olufsen , full size keyboard – alphanumeric, also in 15 inches – with eye-catching backlight, three USB 3.1 ports, And Ethernet port.

4. Gigabyte Aero 14 | Best 14 inch Gaming Laptop

Gigabyte Aero 14 Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

The Gigabyte Aero 14 is based on a minimalist design philosophy which makes it a suitable choice for professional work environments. Unlike many of their rivals, Gigabyte did not adopt customizable RGB lighting or implement a two-tone color scheme which usually appeals to the demographic gaming core. Instead, they decided to stick with a simple black finish and added a stylish section which mimics the look of carbon fiber. The textured portion is absolutely breathtaking and contrasts with the laptop’s default color tone remarkably well. This evokes such a sense of pride when using the product and it feels like you’re getting an expensive piece of equipment.

NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 970M / 965M
Sixth Generation Intel® Core ™ i7 Processor
QHD IPS screen with wide viewing angle (optional)
94.24Wh Large battery with capacity for a full day of work
So 19.9mm thick only and 1.89kg in weight
Blazing-fast M.2 PCIe SSD: Reach 2000MB / s (optional)
USB 3.1 Type-C: 10Gbps / 5V 3A
DDR4: 2133MHz hsdts 32GB
HDMI 2.0: 4K resolution at 60Hz

Gigabyte Areo 14 is an excellent ultrabook with exceptional performance. The sleek attractive thin design and long battery life, make the Aero 14 perfect for travel. While the powerful CPU, lightning fast SSD, and dedicated GPU make the Aero 14 powerhouse. Add in the beautiful display and comfortable keyboard and you have a well-rounded device that delivers in every area.

5. Razer Blade | Powerful good GTX 1060 VR Compatible Gaming Laptop

Razer Blade Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

Of the three new Razer laptops, the Razer Blade is probably my favourite. It’s the best option for someone who needs a good laptop for work, a good laptop for gaming, and doesn’t want to compromise in either direction. It’s expensive, sure – but all thin, light and powerful laptops are. And with a slick design, it’s hard to fault the new Blade. Sure, you can find a similarly spec’d laptop for a few hundred less, but not one that crams this performance into such an ultraportable form factor. Experience streamlined performance with the latest 7th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 Quad Core processor. Get faster, smoother and more detailed gameplay with the powerful performance of the NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 graphics.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, 512GB PCIe SSD and 16GB RAM provides desktop-grade performance in a laptop for even the most intensive gaming – even on the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive
Extremely thin (0.7″) CNC aluminum chassis, weighing in only at 4.16 lbs
Get the best gaming experience with an incredible 14” IPS Full HD display
World’s most advanced gaming notebook with Chroma anti-ghosting keyboard and Killer Wireless AC
Thunderbolt 3 – The one port that does it all with Thunderbolt, USB, and and DisplayPort over USB-C

Add in USB-C, the promise of the Razer Core, and that PCIe SSD? Pretty snazzy. So if you need a laptop today, and can’t wait for the 1070 to go mobile and start making its way into products, the 2016 Blade is a solid choice. Just be aware it’s not a very future-proofed option at this point.

6. Aorus X5 v6 | Best i7 16GB Gaming Laptop

Aorus X5 v6 Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

The notebook has dimensions of 390 x 272 x 22.9mm and a weight of just 2.5 KG with the integrated battery. The first sensations are fantastic, since its design is very elegant (anodized aluminum body) and comes out of any stereotype of the gaming world, and that helps a lot when taking it with you to any meeting or out of work. By its characteristics slash … Very closely the concept of ultrabook! We are glad to see a laptop as well.
The Aorus X5 V6 is a fairly large model, with 15.6 inches , a WQHD resolution: 2880 × 1620 pixels and 211 ppi. The screen is manufactured in IPS IPS panel with anti-glare with excellent response time and refresh the screen. All this supported with the technology G-SYNC of Nvidia that always helps great before the fall of FPS.

Among its connections we find a power input, audio input and output, an HDMI 2.0 connection , a Mini Display Port, an RJ45 output, three Type A USB 3.0 connections , another 3.1 Type C USB connection and no unit optics.

When you look at the bottom of the laptop incorporates two zones of grilles that allow the cooling system to take in the air needed to dissipate all the heat generated during its operation.

At the top of the keyboard we find the audio output, two 2W RMS speakers each and a small 2W subwoofer , which although the headphones are the preference of the most enthusiastic players, sometimes feel good listening to a good music on your computer.

As for the processor we find an i7-6820HK socket socket FCBGA 1440 with 4 cores and 8 wires based on the Skylake architecture at a frequency of 2.7GHz and a turbo frequency of 3.7 GHz , 8 MB L3 cache and a TDP Of 45W . As an integrated graphics card, it incorporates an Intel HD Graphics 530 that is activated when the computer does not demand 3D applications (Rendering, games, multimedia) considerably reducing the total consumption of the system.

In memory RAM they have opted for a kit of 16 GB in dual channel , a very generous amount than enough to go several years and nothing out of the expectable in these ranges. They are DDR4L modules (1.2V) which is the minimum requirement that requests from the previous generation of Intel processors.

Gigabyte has chosen a dual storage system. The first disk is a 256 GB SSD with PCI interface (NVMe) , exactly the Samsung SM951 MZVPV256 with a read and write greater than 1.5 GB / s respectively. To complement a fast system also need a good storage system, this time has a new, hard drive data of 1TB with speed of 7200 rpm . This combination allows us to have a long storage for heavy applications and our files, and an SSD disk for the operating system and our most concurrent applications.

The graphical section is quite remarkable with the presence of an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card with a total of 2048 CUDA Cores accompanied by 8 GB of GDDR5 memory with a 256-bit interface and a bandwidth of 256 GB / s . With these specifications we can play any game (the processor is already equivalent to an i5-6600K with overclocking) in Ultra and without messing with the resolution attached.

It is complemented by an AverMedia Live Stream Engine video capturer that mitigates fatigue to components during the streaming of our content or recording and then edit it with editing programs.

Regarding connectivity has an 802.11 wireless Wifi network card with Killer chipset that defends quite well in the 5 GHz band. While networking we have a Killer network card that increases up to 60% performance and latency .

Command & Control allows us to customize, monitor and take control of your entire laptop from a click. A pleasant surprise! The first impressions of the laptop have been quite good and we have seen a tremendous evolution regarding the P35 laptops of Gigabyte with the new processors and the graphic card pascal.

The Aorus X5 V6 is a 15.6-inch notebook with a WQHD resolution and a black aluminum design that gives it a very stylish and high-quality touch.

Among its features we find the best i7 sixth generation , an 8GB GTX 1070 graphics card , 32GB RAM , 256GB NVMe SSD , 1TB disk and Killer certified wireless and wired connectivity . This whole set makes it one of the best laptops we can buy today.

Our experience with virtual reality has not been better, just heated and is excellent optimized for these high performance tasks. Of course, it is not a price but its concept of elegance , design almost ultrabook and power we do not see it every day . Finally, we have a clear competitor to have the best gaming laptop on the market.

7. Razer Blade Pro | Nvidia GTX 1080 Gaming Laptop

Razer Blade Pro Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

For starters we have a 17.3-inch screen with 4K resolution(3,840×2,160 pixels), which is made with a latest-generation IGZO panel (it’s an IPS). In addition to being tactile, it has the support Nvidia G-Sync that will value the most demanding players. Accustomed to gaming-style notebooks , the Razer Blade Pro surprises with a design clearly inspired by Apple Macbook . Its slim thickness and “slim” design shows an admirable job of keeping its powerful interior protected under an aesthetic wrapping. Among its high-quality finishes, its aluminum case is metallic in appearance, its edges less rounded and sharp than in previous models of the brand and the curious change of color of the connector of the USB 3.0 ports .

The screen covers 100% of the Adobe RGB space , as other models in the house did, making it a very interesting workspace for some, outside the gaming world.

Despite the screen size and components chosen, this equipment weighs just over 3 kilos , and its aluminum chassis has a thickness – closed – of 0.88 inches. The complete dimensions are: 424 x 281 x 22.5 millimeters, and weighs 3.45 kilos .

Nvidia GTX 1080 puts the graphics

We do not think there is a better choice in the portable market than the 1080 Nvidia , apart from double configurations that we can find in teams designed exclusively to play, with no intention of doing something comfortable.

The most beast that we could expect in a desktop ‘gaming’ put us in a laptop that weighs just over 3 kilos

Razer is especially proud of the ventilation system they have created, the most powerful in a notebook, based on a steam chamber and outlet points to lower the temperature. Additionally we have a fan.

Neither is bad processor, with an Intel Core i7-6700HQ (Skylake) that is very well accompanied by 32GB of DDR4 RAM , and up to 2TB of storage space in SSD (PCIe M.2) format.

Our attention is also drawn to WiFi connectivity via Killer DoubleShot Pro, or Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C, Gigabit Ethernet, and HDMI output.

8. Origin EON17-X | Best Gaming Laptop with i7 and GTX 1080

Origin EON17-X Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

It’s hard to argue with the Origin EON17-SLX 10’s level of performance. It’s the fastest notebook we’ve tested to date, by far, and it puts most high-end desktops to shame. It packed some serious firepower as we reviewed it, with a desktop Core i7-6700K processor overclocked to 4.5GHz, dual Nvidia GTX 1080 graphics cards in SLI (also overclocked), DDR4 2,666MHz RAM, and a RAID 0 array of PCI Express SSDs, all backed by dual 330-watt power adapters. We’re convinced it’s the limit of what’s possible in a 17.3-inch chassis.

17.3″ 1920 x 1080 (16:9) IPS Display with NVIDIA g-sync technology
Intel Core i7-6700K Quad-Core 4.0 GHz Processor (3.9GHz Boost)
16GB DDR4 2400Mhz
Single 8GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 desktop GPU w/g-sync
250GB SSD and 1TB 7200Rpm had

To put it simply, the EON17-X 10 Series is the most powerful gaming laptop we’ve tested. Of course it’s incredibly expensive, but on the high end of an inherently pricey category, it delivers precisely what it should, and is a much better value than the Signature 17, which comes with less storage, slightly lower performance, and an inferior display. It’s far from the most mobile laptop at this size and weight, possibly leaving you wondering if you should get a desktop instead.

9. Acer Predator 17 X | Best 17 inch GTX 1080 powerful gaming laptop

Acer Predator 17 X Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

The screen of the Acer Predator 17X has a diagonal of 17 inches and reaches a resolution of 4K, that is to say, 3840 × 2160 pixels. Of course, to enjoy this great resolution in games or watching movies, you need a powerful hardware … and this laptop shows the best.

The new Predator 17 X maintains the aesthetic line of its predecessors, improving substantially its performance. It integrates 6-generation Intel Core i7-6820HK quad-core processors, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 graphics card and an innovative three-fan cooling system that optimizes the flow of cool air from the front.

Thanks to Acer’s overclocking, it achieves speeds up to 4.0 GHz for the CPU , up to 1,310 MHz on the GPU and 3.7GHz for VRAM, making it the ideal “VR-to-go” platform.

This Acer car does not disappoint in the hardware section, as it is equipped with an Intel Core i7 6820HK quad-core processor. Along with the ASUS ROG GX700 , the Acer Predator 17X is one of the few laptops in the world that allow overclocking of your processors. The Intel Core i7 6820HK i7 can adjust to achieve the maximum frequency of 4.0GHz. This ultra-fast processor comes with a graphics card to the height, specifically an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 card that has 8 GB GDDR5. A graphics card that we can see in the best desktop systems. Without doubt the combination of a processor I7 4.0GHz and a GTX980 is lethal.

Without fast RAM memory this computer would not serve much … but this time Acer wanted to give us all the RAM that we always dreamed of. This laptop comes equipped with a super 64GB of DDR4 type RAM that runs at a frequency of 2133MHz.

In the storage department, the notebook has SSD hard drives with ultra-performance. Specifically it has a 512 GB SSD with NVMe interface and is PCIe. This implies that the file transfer rate offered by these SSDs is the highest.

10. ASUS GL753 ROG Gamer Laptop | Best laptops for gaming in 2017 UK

Processor: Intel Core i7-7700HQ Quad Core Processor (6MB Cache, 2.8GHz-3.8GHz) 45W
RAM: 16GB DDR4 2400MHz | Hard Drive: 512GB NVMe Solid State Drive + 1TB 7200rpm Hard Disk Drive
Keyboard: RGB Illuminated Chiclet Backlit | Operating System: Windows 10 x64
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 4GB GDDR5 | Display: 17.3″ Full HD Matte Display (1920 x 1080)
512GB NVMe SSD Upgrades*

It makes great sense for a laptop gamer to get ASUS ROG Strix GL753VD. If you can accept less than maxed out settings at Full HD on the heaviest of games, there are no pitfalls I can think of. The overall graphics performance is solid, so is processor, RAM and all of that stuff. The large 17-inches panel is excellent for gaming and, say, photo editing. Of course you don’t want to carry this laptop around too much because it’s rather bulky and heavy (6 and half pounds) compared to regular laptops. But as a portable gaming station it is hard to beat this ASUS

Best Ultrabook: Thin Gaming Laptop

5 Dell XPS 13

Dell has made several changes since 2016: earlier this year switched its CPU to the Skylake (Seventh Edition), adds a USB type C port that serves as an alternative load port, and offers to update the storage options.

The latest update keeps it as the best Ultrabook, with the same chassis and a slightly larger battery. Overall it achieves improved performance, with a half hour more battery life during video playback.

The Dell XPS 13 version maintains the balance between portability, compact size, and the performance we like so much. Our only persistent complaint is the small keyboard, but overall, it’s a truly compact ultrabook.

7 Razer Blade (2015): Thin Gaming Laptop

Our former Best Overall has dropped down to the Rest, not because it isn’t great, but because it’s slower and more expensive than the 2016 Razer Blade.

8 MSI GT72s G Tobii: Thin Gaming Laptop

The GT72s G Tobii isn’t a bad laptop (though that name leaves a lot to be desired). It’s got plenty of oomph and it’s the first gaming laptop to have eyetracking built in—which is incredibly useful if you spend all your days play Dayz. Unfortunately it’s also $2700. Which is a bit much—though the eye tracker-less version is a cool $2200.

Aorus X3 Plus Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

9 Aorus X3 Plus: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

The X3 Plus is compact, powerful and looks just as awesome as the X7—but you can get the same muscle with better build quality, a lower price and more battery life in the Razer Blade. It’s sweet, but not practical.

Alienware 13 Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

10 Alienware 13: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

The Alienware 13 is a pretty great laptop, but the chassis is just a little too meaty to really qualify as “thin” and the built-in 860M GPU is a little too weak. Upgradable external graphics are a nice touch, but pricy. A good option if portab doesn’t matter.

11 Acer Aspire V17 Nitro: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

This laptop’s inch-thick frame makes it a little too big to fit into the “thin” category in our book. If you’re dead-set on being mobile, you’re better off with the similarly-priced Lenovo listed above.

ASUS G Series G501 Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

12 ASUS G Series G501: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

The ASUS G501 has a nice chassis, a good keyboard and a slim profile. It’s fine, but at $2,000 you can get a smaller, more powerful Razer Blade for the same price. Move along.

13 Gigabyte P34W v3: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

Yet another perfectly fine Gigabyte gaming laptop that’s just a little too expensive ($1,600) when paired against that Clevo.

14 Gigabyte P35: Thin Gaming Laptop

14 Gigabyte P35 Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

The P35 is a good 15-inch gaming machine with good internals—but the build quality just couldn’t compete with MSI’s kit. A good alternative to the Clevo if you want a better screen and an optical drive.

15 Gigabyte P37 Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

15 Gigabyte P37: Thin Gaming Laptop

I wanted to like the P37, but it’s more expensive than competitors and doesn’t offer any advantages in components or build. Unless you need an optical drive, skip it.

16 HP Omen Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

16 HP Omen: Thin Gaming Laptop

This laptop is so close to being one of the best, but it’s just not. An amazingly well-designed machine with a gorgeous screen ruined by iffy battery life and last generation’s graphics tech. If HP gives it a serious refresh, it might be something.

17 Origin Evo 15-S Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

17 Origin Evo 15-S: Thin Gaming Laptop

Virtually identical to the MSI GS60 Ghost in every way that matters. A good alternative if you prefer buying from Origin PC for some reason.

18 Razer Blade Pro: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

Like the other Razer Blade I mentioned, but bigger and with a less powerful graphics processor. Not bad if you want a thin 17-inch laptop, period. Only passable if you want to actually play video games on one.

19 Razer Blade QHD+: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

Just like our Best Overall pick, only with twice as much RAM and a gorgeous 3200 x 1800 display—but there’s no way its NVIDIA GTX 970M graphics chip can max out the latest games at that super high resolution. If you can live with that, it’s a great machine for $200 extra.

Second best ultrabook

20 HP Specter 13.3: Lightweight gaming laptop UK

The HP Specter 13.3 is one of the most stylish ultrabooks. One would expect that such a thin notebook will carry a lower-voltage processor (Core M), but instead carries Skylake Core i7-6500U. That puts it on par with other, thicker ultrabooks (like the XPS 13). Combined with its 256GB M.2 SSD, it runs smoothly and quickly during typical work.

HP also made the ports feature: two Thunderbolt 3 ports as well as a USB-C port.

The drawbacks of this modern and stylish laptop are its battery life, due to its smaller battery, and its wider frame. (Hardware configuration and cooling requires a certain amount of space engineering) It is for these reasons that we prefer the Dell XPS 13.

The Best Convertible Laptop

21 Specter x360 13

The updated version, which just released in October, distances it from its predecessor by being smaller, thinner, and noticeably lighter, while still delivering excellent performance and battery life.

Inside the tests with a Core i7 Kaby Lake I do very well the tasks like word processing and edition of spreadsheets, and it handles games like Minecraft and League of Legends in the configuration of image of low resolution. The battery in the tests lasted almost eleven hours during continuous video playback.

This convertible is so good, it is on par with the best Ultrabook. If it were not for the wide aspect ratio trackpad and the low number of ports (only three in total), I could have won.

Best Laptop Ultrabook – Quality Price

22 Asus ZenBook UX305

Asus ZenBook UX305 Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

The Asus Zenbook UX305F is simply the best offer for an ultrabook that has been seen so far. In the version of 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD is the most economical ultrabook.

The body is aluminum, and the screen is a 1920 × 1080 IPS screen with anti-glare finish. It is also one of the thinnest ultrabooks of today, approximately 12 mm thick and weighing only 2.6 lbs.

The CPU, Asus took a step sideways, with Intel’s Core M on the original UX305 and the new Core m3 on the upgraded UX305. In tests with its upgraded version UX305 m3, the first results say that it is comparable in every way, except perhaps performance.

There are some sacrifices: There is no background lighting on the keyboard, which is pretty standard on any Ultrabook today and the trackpad is a bit small.

Best Luxury or Luxury Laptop

23 Surface Book i7

There is no other way to describe Microsoft’s Surface Book as anything more than a luxury item. The desired configuration with a Graphics Card under the keyboard is only available from $ 1,650 or $ 999 with Windows 10S . But what you get is great.

It starts with a 13.5-inch high-resolution display, a discreet GeForce option, a dual-core Skylake CPU, and exceptional battery life. In addition to being able to remove the screen to use it in tablet form with the pen included is only a major advantage.

The performance in general is near in the first places of the other ultrabooks, mainly in the model Core i7. In the graphics part, including video encoding with acceleration, is up to this configuration.

Best Hybrid Laptop

24 Microsoft Surface Pro 2017

The combination of an Intel Skylake chip, a new keyboard type deck and the help of a faster SSD puts the Pro at a higher performance level.

The reigning winner in this category should come as no surprise, given that Microsoft gave way to the concept of hybrid tablet / portable devices. The Surface series is really an evolutionary step beyond the typical “convertible” devices that separate physically from the keyboard to function independently.

Has a higher resolution screen, great performance, and keyboard and trackpad is far from competitive designs.

The only caveat: Its base price is 949 euros and the essential keyboard cover adds $ 130 to the price and Surface Pen and cost $ 99. (No, it is not included.). This new Surface Pro will be available on June 15, 2017.

Hybrid runner

25 Samsung Galaxy S TabPro

The Galaxy S TabPro is not a Pro-murderer surface, but it is an impressive convertible, even with disadvantages of keyboard and screen behavior of rare dimming.

Samsung’s first convertible is incredibly thin, extremely lightweight, and has a lovely OLED screen. Results very reasonable return on the types of basic tasks that get used and an achievement of nearly nine hours of video playback.

What keeps him out of first place is that it has only one USB port (AC type) and no safety devices including, the screen dims after one minute of inactivity without the option to disable the feature, and keyboard included not Feel comfortable.

That said, the TabPro S costs less than Surface Pro 4, while offering that beautiful screen.

Best Economic Hybrid Laptop

26 HP Specter X2

This 2-in-1 is touch, support the pen, and the same keyboard, but for much less money than a Surface.
If you’re thinking that Surface 3 is the affordable alternative to Surface Pro 4, you’re wrong. For $ 800, the HP X2 Specter offers you 128GB of storage, 4GB of RAM, and the latest Intel Skylake Core m3 series, low power. It also has LTE, so you can easily add your data plan. Oh yeah, you get the keyboard, too.

In the only places where the surface 3 shines is in battery life and portability: The Specter X2 died a little more than an hour earlier in order to charge the battery, and it is half a pound heavier.

But a larger screen of the Specter X2 and a solid performance put well ahead of the surface 3 for tasks of office and home.

Best Laptop for Games

27 MSI GT73VR Titan

MSI GT73VR Titan Lightweight gaming laptop UK, The Best Thin Gaming Laptop

The arrival of Nvidia’s Pascal-based mobile GPUs has transformed high-end games into laptops for the first time. An example of this is the new MSI GT73VR Titan, with a GTX 1080 mobile GPU with 17.3 inches, 1920 × 1080, 120 Hz G-Sync panel. It offers a crazy-smooth high-frame rate in games at an unprecedented level: We saw a frame rate of over 150 fps to the brim in games like Tomb Raider and Middle-earth shadow of mordor.

This Titan has a couple of drawbacks: The trackpad, for example, are very rigid and require a lot of clicking power and some problems with overclocking, but in general, the GT73VR is an extremely sweet gaming notebook that has what it takes To master his class.

Best portable gaming laptop

28 Alienware 13 (2016)

The five-pound Alienware 13 is a bit heavy for its size, but it’s worth carrying with those extra ounces. It features a magnificent 2560 × 1440 OLED display, a quad-core i7-6700HQ processor, and an NVIDIA GTX VR-1060 for flawless 1080p games. (Yes, you can play at 2560 × 1440, too, if you drop some of the settings … or buy an Alienware amp and pop it on a more robust video card.)

Its extra weight comes from its incredibly sturdy and solid chassis, built to withstand hot climates and players who physically react to the ups and downs of the game. If you are of a more uniform temperament, and really want to get rid of weight, instead you can opt for the runner-up, the MSI GS63VR, which is a lighter pound and sports a bigger screen.

Runner up gaming laptop

29 GS63VR Stealth VR Ready

The MSI GS63VR’s GTX 1060 GPU offers 50 percent more performance than previously found on a gaming laptop for this portability.

The MSI GS63VR exemplifies the performance of the latest generation of NVIDIA GPUs: This gaming notebook sports a 15.6-inch display, a quad-core i7-6700HQ, and a GTX 1060, all with a weight of only Four pounds

Of course wearing a lower weight, makes updates more difficult, and the build quality is certainly less robust than laptops like the Alienware 10 series. Adding to the list of possible negative aspects the screen of the GS63VR, is not very bright, as well as weak audio subsystem.
Despite its drawbacks, MSI GS63VR with its screen, four pounds in weight, can play the latest games at 1920 × 1080. If you opt for it, you can finally have portability and performance at the same time.

Best Alienware Gaming laptop of 2017 in UK

by Staff · Jun 30, 2017

Choose the best laptop for games , guide 2015. If you have reasons to prefer one of these computers to play, you must know how to make the best choice, that’s why I created this guide with tips and recommendations that I hope will help you clear your doubts to the Time to buy gamer notebook. Also Check alienware gaming laptop amazon

I also have an article with more general recommendations to buy the best laptop that you probably also want to read, sure appears at the end of the post in related articles or in the highlights on the side, however this is aimed exclusively at fans of video game.

What features should have the best laptop for games ? Is alienware the best gaming laptop

The first thing you should be clear about is that you are going to use that laptop, Whether it’s just for games or to work or study. Probably to study, you do not need a team with high hardware requirements, unless you are a university student or preparing for a non-university profession that requires a lot of quality computation, for example if you study mechanical engineering and do 3D designs, If you will be graphic designer, etc. Equally if you’re working, the vast majority of professions are not choosy with hardware. In any case, if the non- gaming use is not hardware demanding you should appreciate the fact that the laptops are usually heavy which makes them uncomfortable to carry, especially if you choose 17 “.

The other case is when using non-gamer if it is demanding in terms of computation. In this case you must take into account that the determining factor will be the video card or graphics chip, there are two types, commonly used as NVDIA Geforce or AMD Radeon which are for games and high quality video playback and the Professional use such as NVIDIA Quadro and AMD FirePro which are for information processing. What is the difference? For games what is needed is to show video already finished, instead the professional graphics are usually used in production tasks, let’s give an example to understand us better, if you play a common use, if you create games you use a professional. Obviously you can not have both, so if the laptop is also to study or work you must decantarte for one of the two, The vast majority of professionals could take advantage of a common card, but if you are aware that your situation is very particular, then choose the professional.

As for the technical characteristics, it is best that you look at some modern games that you would like to enjoy, look for your hardware requirements, do not worry about the minimums, observe the recommended ones and try to buy a notebook that has at least one 50% more in each aspect. Anyway in the next section we will disaggregate component by component the best technical recommendations that I can give you. Technical aspects to take into account to choose the best notebook gamer

Processor:

This factor is extremely important, The heart of your gaming laptop will be strictly defined by a good balance between CPU, graphics chip and RAM memory. Be sure to choose one that is 4 cores and at least 2.5GHz, do not lower a Core i5 but whenever you can try to go for the best Core i7 that your budget can pay, it does not have to be the last of the last , But if you try to choose something in the top 10 because that way you make sure you have a laptop for a good time.

Graphic chip:

Another component that should not be overlooked, it is extremely important that you place something with 2GB GDDR5 in future, if your budget is short and you choose less than that do it at your risk and conscience that you will not take advantage of the most successful graphics Of the most modern games . If you can go for more than 2GB GDDR5 would be excellent, keep in mind that there are already games like Shadow of Mordor that has the rude requirement of a graphics card from that amount of memory. Finally, I’m sure you’ll find a dedicated and integrated graphics chip ranking to compare one model against another.

Memory RAM:

Here there is nothing to discuss, 8GB DDR3 minimum and if possible 16GB. Anything less is wasting all the hardware power you’d be spending on CPU and graphics. Really 8GB could seem few, but if you consider that will be accompanied by an excellent CPU and a good amount of specialized memory in the graphics then it is compensated, anyway I recommend going for 12 or better still 16GB whenever you can.

Screen size:

Having a good size screen is important because if you were forcing your eyesight, I do not think you should go for less than 15 “and if possible choose 17”, the problem of size is that the bigger the screen The greater the weight that makes your computer less comfortable to wear, but really most gamers want a laptop is to be able to move it through different places in your home or use it occasionally when they leave it, so if you do not walk All day long with your laptop on its back the size should not be a problem

Screen technology:

Since you are going to spend a lot of time playing on your laptop (Of course you do) it is good to take care of your eyes, For it exist the antireflecting screens that diminish the reflections that tire the view that come from the screen. As for technology should be LED.

Screen Resolution :

I think you should have at least HD (720p / 1280×720) or better still Full HD (1080p / 1920×1080)

Hard Disk:

Your games will take up a lot of space but not so much as to require huge amounts of Storage, I recommend that you try to acquire a solid SSD disk since these are very fast and do not fragment, the bad thing is that they are very expensive and usually the high end equipment usually come with 250GB capacity, which In my opinion is little. Do not get off those 250GB, Anyway while I write this article those discs become increasingly cheaper. An alternative is hybrid discs commonly called HHDD, these have a traditional hard disk HDD of large mechanical plates and a disk SSD of very low capacity, the trick is that the most requested information is written and read on the SSD and The rest stored in the HDD, which according to manufacturers you get up to 70% of the speed of a standard SSD, now, I have not seen laptops with these disks, but it is a matter of time. On the other hand if you choose a HDD then do not sacrifice Gigas and make sure it is 500GB or better still 1TB (1000GB) and 7200rpm, although I do not really see a reason to buy your computer with one of these disks.

Battery:

It suits you a good battery that offers you autonomy because it really is a pain to be carrying the laptop all the time, why it is useful to have a laptop if you always have to have it attached to a cable. I will not go into details of how much each component consumes because this equipment is not going to arm you, you buy it as a set, so trust in what the manufacturer says, try not to get out of the 6 hours of autonomy, 4 also serve but It is a bit short. Keep in mind that one year your battery could lose up to half of its carrying capacity.

Sound:

To enjoy your games this is essential, being able to listen to the sound effects on quality speakers is almost indispensable, However the true enjoyment is in choosing quality headphones and have a microphone, so do not disturb anyone and also manage to avoid any distraction. You must have at least a good surround sound HD card, most gamer equipment already have this perfectly fixed. Another excellent option is a surround sound system of 5.1 or 7.1.

Webcam:

With the rise of online multiplayer games it is almost inconceivable to have a laptop that boasts of being a gamer and not have a good integrated webcam. This should be at least 720p resolution.With a good pair of headphones with microphone, webcam and Skype you will solve perfectly to talk with your friends in real time.

There are other factors that you should consider, but I have already discussed in detail in another entry of this blog, so I recommend you visit the guide to buy the best notebook. In the next section you will find some models that I hope will serve as reference.

If you want to take care of your budget The best thing is that you see which games you are interested in, Then do a small search “Game X requirements” and then choose a team that is at least 50% more powerful than recommended (Eye, not the minimum) for your most demanding game, for example, let’s say you want to play Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, then,

Step 1: Look for the requirements, the results will pop up several webs, choose the one you like, I trust this, tells us to order Intel Core i7 4790, GeForce GTX-760, DirectX11 and 8GB of RAM.

Step 2: As this Core i7 is for PC, we look for “Core i7 4790 benchmark”, again choose from the search the result you like, but I go with the CPUBenchmark people, this indicates a team with 10057 points In the benchmark. Then look in the list of processors for laptop of CPUBenchmark a computer with a similar score, We quickly realize that in this case the market does not suit us very well or perhaps the recommended requirement has been exaggerated, but equally, you have some near the 10,000 points.

Step 3: Look for a graph, usually the market is better in this case, in the ranking that I placed before graphic chips, we look for the GTX-760 which in that ranking tells us that the equivalent version for laptop is the GTX- 760M which is 2GB and was rated with 3565 points, so you choose a better one, for example the GTX-950M is 4GB and even more importantly, it has 5100 points which is almost 50% more.

Step 4: Find the RAM, this is much easier, you know that although it is not indicated should be GDDR5, then, 12 GB would be 50% more.

Step 5: Find a laptop with these specifications, Although you do not have to buy it on Amazon, your filters will help you do a quick reference search.

Step 6: Now that you have reference teams, is the budget enough? If the answer is yes, then go ahead, otherwise choose the notebook that you can afford to buy that comes closest to the recommended requirements, the closer you are to the minimum you are likely to sacrifice some graphics performance, but that is, never Choose one below the minimum requirements, and if you do, do so at your own risk.

Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2018? For many holidays are over and touches back to the daily routine, a time we occasionally take advantage of renewing a good part of our gadgets and equipment in a broad sense, from smartphones to computers. Not long ago a friend asked me for help choosing a laptop to play, since I was in this situation, I had the money saved and I wanted to buy one, but I was lost, I had nothing clear which to choose, in fact I did not even know why Where to begin, since the large number of models with apparently different components but very similar prices was extremely confusing.

Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017? Unfortunately choosing a laptop to play is very very complicated, as we found a number of elements that require a good knowledge base and be fully up to date on almost everything that is coming out, since otherwise we run the risk of End up making a bad buy

All this has led us to publish this guide in which we will give you the most important information that you should take into account so that you can choose correctly the laptop to play that best fits your needs and your budget and avoid, incidentally, that the Can deceive. Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2018

Previous considerations

We must be clear that a laptop to play really is not like a conventional laptop, since in general, and depending on the manufacturer and the price range by which we choose, have clearly differentiating elements among which stand out more refrigeration systems Powerful and efficient, as well as superior build quality to withstand long gaming sessions.

On the other hand, the price of these equipment is usually much higher than that of the models for general use, and also higher than it would cost us to set up a desktop of similar power, so before launching ourselves to buy one it is important to meditate thoroughly if youreally need a portable gaming system and why not suffice we choose a PC to play.

Mobility is another aspect that we must be willing to sacrifice with these equipment , since having more powerful components their autonomy is very reduced when they are at full capacity and are much less efficient than other types of laptops, such as ultrabooks, for example.

Finally it is vital to be clear that to play “really” on a laptop with a level similar to that we would enjoy in a table should be willing to spend a minimum that usually around 800 , and that the equipment we buy for that price Will be much less powerful to the desktop equivalent that we could acquire with that budget.

Processor : the heart of the team

Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017In laptops to play Intel has a clear domain, unfortunately for the consumer, so we will focus for obvious reasons in the solutions of this manufacturer.

Generation of the processor:

Currently we can find processors based on Haswell, identified as 4000 series , and in Broadwell, which are recognized by the number 5000.

The difference between them is essentially limited to the manufacturing process, since the first comes in 22nm and the second in 14nm, but this detail does not have a real impact, since most of the models that interest us, the High performance, have an identical TDP in almost all versions.

With this we mean that you should not be obsessed with spending more money to get a computer with a Core 5000 series, since one with a Core 4000 processor is today perfect for playing.

Processor range:

Since our goal is to play only we are going to focus on the higher models, that is, the Core i5 and the Core i7, since they are the ones that are used in this type of laptops. Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017:

Core i5: Unlike desktop models it has two cores and four threads, not four real cores. This implies that they can divide the load of those four threads between their two cores, something that generally offers good results but that penalizes in games that really take advantage of more than two cores. They integrate Turbo Boost technology that increases the working frequency when necessary.
Core i7: They have four real cores and eight threads , as do their standard desktop variants. They are more advisable, since when they are used with games that can take advantage of their potential they mark a clear difference, especially in level of minimum FPS and general stability, and they have also guaranteed a better “aging”. They also have Turbo Boost technology that increases working frequencies and can even deactivate cores that are not exploited , increasing even more the speed of the nuclei that remain active, so that even games that only use two cores will benefit greatly. Measured by the presence of Core i7.
Core i7 extreme range: these are versions that maintain the specifications of the previous ones, but that come to higher frequencies of work. They usually increase the price of the equipment a lot and do not compensate, so in terms of value for money it is better to avoid them.

Graphic card

Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017? An essential component, since it will depend on the resolution and the graphic quality to which we can play, as well as the useful life of the equipment and also the price thereof.

We must bear in mind that their performance does not correspond to those offered by those with shared names , and that usually will always be lower. As an example we can mention the GTX 960M, which does not render like a GTX 960, but rather as a GTX 750 Ti.

As in the previous case the presence of AMD is very limited, so we will focus on NVIDIA solutions.

To make everything easier to understand we leave you a summary of the base models that we can find currently grouped into three large ranges, a classification of which we must understand within the context of solutions to play.

Minimum recommended to play 1080p : The GTX 850M-GTX 950M 2 GB form the minimum recommended to play. The second is a renowned of the first and both have a lower performance than the GTX 750 Ti, but we can compare with them to put them better. Always look for those machines that mount them with GDDR5 memory avoiding the versions with DDR3, and keep in mind that the GTX 860M and GTX 960M are identical to the GTX 850M and GTX 950M, only the working frequencies change.
Optimum level to play in 1080p : The GTX 965M is our goal. It is not a renowned solution, but it assembles a new GPU based on Maxwell of second generation and marks an important leap against the previous ones. The 4 GB models of GDDR5 do not represent a real performance improvement over the 2 GB models.
High performance in 1080p without excess : If we want to play in Full HD with ultra quality and without being caught practically no game the GTX 970M is the best value for money. Yes, the GTX 980M is more powerful, but it increases the price of the equipment very much and it does not compensate.

Memory RAM and storage

Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017? We can play with guarantees if we have 4 GB of RAM in most cases, but it is advisable to opt for computers that mount 8 GB of RAM , since it can make a difference in certain current games, such as Battlefield Hardline, And the trend towards a higher consumption of RAM in upcoming games is clear.

Overcoming the recommendation of 8 GB of RAM and buying computers with 16 GB or 32 GB of RAM is not a good idea, since more RAM does not imply higher performance from that figure, but it does increase the overall cost of the computer, so It is best to spend that extra money on a computer with a better graphics card.

When it comes to storage an SSD is recommended but not essential and also usually cost a lot the cost of the equipment, so if you have a limited budget you should choose to enhance the processor and graphics card, even if that means conforming to a mechanical hard disk, and That the CPU + GPU + RAM combo will ultimately determine our gaming experience. To this we must agree that in any case we will always be in time to change the HDD by an SSD quickly and easily.

As an intermediate option we have the equipment that builds a hybrid HDD with a certain amount of flash memory acting as cache. They are not the panacea, so we should only take them into account when they do not increase the price absurdly.

Practical examples

Usually an affordable gaming notebook will consist of a Core i5, a GTX 850M-GTX 950M 2 GB GDDR5, 8 GB RAM and a mechanical HDD of 1 TB at 5,400 RPM. Its price should be approximately 800.

With such a team we could play almost everything that exists today in the market at 1080p and medium or high qualities , and even ultra in very specific cases. In GTA V we could play that resolution and high quality at an average of 29 FPS.

In contrast to a mid-high-end model would be Core i7 type, 8 GB RAM, GTD 965M 2 GB GDDR5, 1 TB HDD at 7200 RPM and 128 GB SSD would exceed 1,300.

With it we could play virtually all current games in 1080p and high quality , and ultra quality in many of them. Following with the previous example GTA V would run in this equipment to 55 FPS of average in Full HD and high quality.

Finally the teams the same previous base but a GTX 970M usually hover around 1,500 . In GTA V at 1080p and high quality they get averages of 70 FPS.

The resurgence of gaming for PC has resulted in many users considering getting one especially dedicated to enjoy video games, instead of opting for a console. In this special we review the current offer to offer six teams below 1,000 and with the power demanded by the players.

Before continuing a truism that is not worth remembering: when it comes to playing, the best option is almost always a dessert; The performance invested is much greater than in a laptop, we have many more possibilities of expansion and, with a good assembly, a quiet and well refrigerated equipment.

If, despite everything, you are determined by a laptop to play, we recommend to take a look at this article , where we explain in detail what you should keep in mind when choosing. Obviously, the components have changed since we wrote them, but the basics on which to set themselves remain the same. Without further ado, we go with our recommendations: Best budget gaming laptop in UK 2017
