hello, i am planning to get a laptop strictly for playing LOL and i was wondering if yall have any recommendations. i don't need anything fancy schmancy just a decent and cheap laptop that can handle the game well. i would rly like it to be around the $300-500 range
Sarutobi1 votesHonestly i would assume any laptop that has been made in the last 5 years could run this game. Its not a very high demanding game so you should be fine getting a decent laptop. You wont be playing in all High Settings, but youll be able to play!

Something like this will do okay. http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=34-315-131
If you are willing to go refurbished your options broaden.

Cremepie1 votesIf you have to get a laptop I would recommend getting a Lenovo, or if you know the specs you want, try Cyberpower PC and customize your own.
Above all of that though I would highly recommend a desktop, you will just have a better experience on desktop 10 out of 10 times.
Flawless Galbi1 votesi will take that into consideration thanks! and i actually do have a desktop but i just wanted a laptop so i can take it with me to play elsewhere. lol ain't nobody (at least not me) gonna bring their desktop to trips and such right ? :P
Cremepie1 votesAh gotcha, yeah I got me one of the traveling laptops although I got mine with the works. $1440 monster of laptop, but still barely use it haha. Just make sure it comes with dedicated graphics card or you will likely have a bad time.

Reaper Soraka1 votesIn short, I think what you're looking for is a laptop with what is called a "dedicated graphics card". For games you don't want one that has "integrated" cards.
You can search on Tigerdirect.com or newegg.com, but the lower end ones will bottom out around $400-500
Edit: I typically follow the crowd on newegg since they generally know their stuff, so I look for a lot of good reviews. I'd go with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834315131
