I am looking to get a laptop. I need some help and suggestions.
My budget is at most ~$700. I want to be able to play 1080p matroska files (using DXVA or not), play older/ less demanding games at average settings (CSS, L4D, 2142, warcraft 3), and have a nice keyboard layout. I am looking for something between 13 and 15 inches, 16 would be a stretch. My main concern/question is how far the x4500 can be pushed in playing older games and movies (with DXVA). I have also thought about getting an Asus N10J for its 9300m, however its small screen size just seems like it would be a nuisance for long term use. (I will be taking this on vacation for 3 month intervals). I also don't care for its thick bezel.
Oh yeah, also please no white laptop reccomendations.
Thanks!
