Lol. dividebyzero always puts the crazies to rest.

That is why he has a pirate sign in his pic lol. (really from a food show, forgot its name though).

Hi I'm a computer mad head so I've looked at the link the dell xps is good but the core proccessor is appuling all it can play is pcman you should look foor something with a higer core proccesor then it will help the game play smoothly also you need to check the video card drivers as some games need at least a good video card driver also I advise not getting windows 8 or gaming unless you are getting a windows 8 gmaing computer

I5 is enough. Don't go i7. Also, don't go with premium brands like VAIO or alienware. Honestly it aint worth it. I rather go with something $700 laptop and buy another one after a year rather than keep the same gaming laptop for years. They usually would overheat after 2 years or so

Not at all... those are just for fanboys and people who don't know what a true gaming computer is. You can easily go to iBuyPower, Origin PC, or Sager just to name a few which will get you better value and performance.
