first off wrong question.

the first question about getting a new machine is what is the highest you will spend?

What is the cheapest parts to hit the minimum benchmark?

personally 300-400 quid is a good area. those tend to run guns fine.

Max has a good point here!


Also pies mentioned shared graphics, is this Intel trying to rephrase intergraded graphics?
If so avoid..

Aim for a graphics card if for no other reasons than a longer lasting ram. :)

Though now days any rigs, laptop or desktop have more ram than a field of sheep...

I would be fine for looking into the 300-400 range, but I am only going to have Steam and Guns of Icarus Online Installed onto it. The rest on a portable hard-drive.

 Made my day. :D


Also, taking yours and max's comment on-board, what do you think of this one? It meets all of the requirements, and also it would be able to do 20+ FPS with mediocre graphics. I don't really mind about FPS, as long as it is not below 10.  :)

It has integrated graphics but will be a great general purpose laptop. Should be enough to comfortably run GOIO.
