Best Cheap Gaming Laptop

It is known that the video games of these days are very advanced and have very complex graphics and game play. So to be able to play them on your laptop, you will need a really powerful one. First of all you need to have a powerful processor and a big RAM memory, but as important as these 2 features is also the graphics engine. Since the games have such an advanced graphic, you will need a very good video card in order to play the games with a high resolution and high details. But to have a great video quality the graphics engine is not enough, and you will also need a good display screen, with a large diagonal (17 inch would be ok). And since these complex video games are also very large, you will also need a big hard drive in order to store many of them.

There are many premium laptops that can be really good for video games, but there is a laptop producer that is specialized just in making gaming notebooks. And this is of course Alienware. This company is actually a subsidiary of Dell, and it produces other type of gaming products too, such as: powerful computers, laptops, headsets, computer mice, monitors and keyboards…all of them specially made for high performance gaming. It was founded in 1996 and has the headquarters in Florida, United States of America. But of course it sells its products all over the world and probably wherever you will find Dell laptops you will also find Alienware laptops.

But since they are so powerful, they are also very expensive and most of the Alienware notebooks cost around 2,000 dolllars. But there is a cheaper model too. This is the Alienware – Laptop with Intel ® Core ™ 2 Duo Processor – Cosmic Black, Model: AM 11 X-2719 CSB | SKU: 9732759. This one has a price of 900 dollars. So it may look really cheap compared to the other Alienware laptops that costs 2,000 dollars, but if we look closely at its display screen we’ll notice that it is a 11.6 display. So it is practically a netbook, and compared to other netbook of 300-400 dollars, it is quite expensive. But still, it can be considered one of the best cheap gaming laptops in the world, and definitely the best 11 inch laptop in the world.

So let’s discuss more about its features. Its processor is a Intel ® Core ™ 2 Duo mobile processor SU 7300 that features 2 processing cores, 800 MHz system bus, 3 MB cache and 1.3 GHz processor speed per core. So it may not be the most powerful processor on the market, but for a laptop of these dimensions it is really good. The RAM memory is good too, offering 4 GB of DDR 3 SDRAM, that can be expanded to 8 GB. Since it is a netbook it doesn’t have an optical drive. So when installing the video games you have three possibilities: use an external optical drive or download the games directly from the internet, or install them using an USB cable. The hard disc is quite good too, and thanks to its 250 GB of memory you will be able to store a lot of video games. As we said, for good video games you will need a good video card, so this model has a NVIDIA GeForce GT 335 M graphics features 1 GB GDDR 3 memory for lush images. Unfortunately the display screen is quite small, so the video quality won’t be a perfect one. But if you have a High Definition TV you are really lucky, because this laptop also has a HDMI port, so that you can connect the laptop to a TV of that type.

And of course you can use this laptop for any other kind of computer activity, and not just for playing video games. It also features both wireless and Ethernet connectivity for easier access to the internet, and a built in webcam for video conferences on the internet. It has a weight of just 3.8 lbs and measures just 1.3 inch thin, so it is really portable and can be taken anywhere. For a powerful gaming laptop it has quite a good life battery, and this one can last for about 5 hours and 35 minutes. And finally it also comes with an installed version of the Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64 bit.
So after all this is among the best cheap gaming laptops and you will definitely enjoy it.
