Cheap Gaming Laptops - Where To Find Them?
Copyright (c) 2009 Titus Hoskins

As a general rule, gaming laptops are not cheap, they are usually
the most expensive laptops you can purchase. If you go with a
fully-loaded high-end gaming machine from the popular brand-name
makers you will likely have to dish out 4 to 6 grand for the top
rigs.

However, since all laptop prices have been falling at a steady
rate in recent years, if you shop around you can find a
half-decent gaming laptop at a reasonable price. Here we're
still talking about $1500 to $2500 for a good quality gaming
laptop. Although there are probably cheaper ones to be found if
you look in the right places.

Now, the main reason gaming laptops are so expensive is because
of the high-end components and high-end specs that's needed to
produce a superior gaming machine. In a gaming laptop you need
top-level Graphics (CPUs), High Processor Speeds, tons of RAM,
high-end HD Displays and high-end Optical Drives featuring
Blu-ray and the like.

Of course, if you're buying a flashy brand-name gaming laptop
like those produced by Alienware or Rock, you will be paying
extra for all that style and flash. Now, if money is no object,
going with these top brand-names could probably be your best bet
if you're playing the name game. Also keep in mind, you don't
always have to buy the really expensive "flag-ship" models;
going with an entry-level gaming laptop from Alienware or Rock
can make them more affordable for the average gamer.

However, if you're on a really tight budget (and who isn't
these days) then you have other options when buying a completely
good quality gaming laptop. You might not get all the "bells and
whistles" but you will get a fast, high-performance gaming
machine that will let you play the latest 3D video games on your
laptop.

Before you even begin your search, you will have to decide
whether or not you're ruling out the possibility of purchasing a
refurbished or even a used gaming laptop. If you know what
you're doing, some excellent bargains can be had with online
auction sites like eBay. Just make sure you thoroughly check out
the seller and product before you buy.

Refurbished laptops is another option you can take, just make
sure you have some iron-clad guarantees or warranties if you're
buying a refurbished gaming laptop. Also remember, check around
in your own local area... in hard economic times many perfectly
good gaming laptops may be offered for sale so check your local
newspaper ads and online places like Craigslist to see if you can
pick up a quality gaming rig at a very reasonable price.

Next, if you're in the market for new gaming laptop, there are
several lower price models you could consider.

Gateway P-7811FX ($1,449)

The Gateway P-7811FX is one rather inexpensive laptop you should
check out if you're searching for good gaming laptop at a
reasonable price. It sports a 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P8400
processor with 4GB, 667MHz DDR3 memory, 200GB 7200rpm, Nvidia
GeForce 9800M GTS and a HD-friendly 1920x1200 17.1 inch display.

Which is great value for your money and if you're on a tight
budget, you should consider this one.

Qosmio X305 ($1,500 - $2000)

Toshiba has recently launched its Qosmio X305 series of gaming
laptops featuring two NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GTS SLI graphics
cards. With Intel Core2 Duo Processor P8400 and 4GB PC3-8500 DDR3
1066MHz SDRAM memory - these beauties can handle the most
demanding Direct X 10 games and applications.

Throw in Toshiba great 17" Diagonal TruBrite Widescreen Display
for full 1680 x 1050 (WSXGA+) resolution and 4 Harman/Kardon
speakers with a Subwoofer and you have a good quality gaming
machine at a reasonable price.

Know Your Clevo

Furthermore, experienced gamers know their "Clevo" - this is
the Taiwan-based notebook maker ODM (Original Design
Manufacturer) who supplies many of the Brand-name Boutique OEMs
(Original Equipment Manufacturers) like Falcon, M-TECH, Sager,
Rock... with the necessary components and models. By comparing
the prices on these Clevo models offered by the different OEMs,
you can find the cheapest price that's offered. You can save
hundreds, if not thousands off by shopping around and finding the
best priced Clevo.

These are just but a few examples of finding a relatively cheap
gaming laptop, if you're on the hunt for a good quality gaming
rig. But there are many more out there, so shop around and cover
all your bases.

Happy hunting!
