    Is it compulsory for everyday usage? It's kinda hard for me to add that, so these current specifications can't do casual everyday editing, browsing, and gaming.

    Thanks for the feedback guys, I have another question:

    Considerings its just £450, is that set-up worth the price? Considering I'm not going to seriously game all day, maybe just an hour everyday of BF4, Minecraft, NFS and for editing some possibly PS, Vegas Pro, with possibilities of multi-tasking with extra things.

    What about the lifespan of such PC? Will it last me a long time without an upgrade, or hardware wear out/damage? I'm not looking to spend another penny after this buy since my budget is just near to £500 on a good PC I want it to be worth every penny so I wouldn't regret my choice afterwards.

    You're pissed off because you can't afford a better laptop, what does that have to do with someone actually trying to help? Don't be so stuck-up and appreciate the feedback we are giving you.

    If you can't believe the feedback, go buy it and see for yourself, don't come crying to forums when the games don't run to your expectations.

    If you're going to play games like those, you're an essential "casual" gamer.

    Okay. I'm going to answer your first post questions directly...

    (PS: Your first post is terrible and doesn't mention WHAT TYPE OF SETTINGS you wish to play on and specifically what type of game.. E.g. Need For Speed <Title> or GTA <Title>) (The release date of the game can verify at what generation hardware it can easily play on)


    1. How much FPS I will get on Minecraft?
    2. Will it run other games smoothly (some parts of NFS, GTA, and others)?
    3. And will I be able to record?

    1. Far? Fancy? No. (Lower than 30 FPS). Normal/Small? Fast? Yes. (30-60 FPS)
    2. It can never run on highest settings, 15-5 FPS on medium, and maybe if you're lucky, 20-25 FPS on low. (And again, it depends on the title)
    3. With games like these? No or maybe on lowest settings with high frap drops.

    Listen to KillerToad, he's right. The laptop has a terrible GPU (Intel HD Graphics) which is not made for gaming. That laptop is generally run for home or business. If you want some more kick into your gaming, I suggest you either aim for the Nvidia or Radeon GPU chipsets which will atleast run games properly.

    I have an i5, Intel HD Graphics running 5 fps on fancy/far, 15 fps on fast/normal and 30 fps on fast/small.

    Your CPU is fine, (i3) but seriously choose another laptop which has another graphics card. Since they are integrated, you'll have to choose something alot better because integrated cards run on RAM and CPU performance.
