I needed a new laptop, wanted windows 7, so I found this ASUS with an i7 2.3ghz, 12gb RAM, 2 750 gb hdd, and Nvidia GTX 660M. Reviews said it will run just about everything, but some titles aren't able to be played with the optimal settings. Not too worried about that though.

I didn't need to buy a gaming laptop, but the price was too good to pass up. I haven't played PC Games since Enemy Territory so I'm a bit lost now looking through these games. I used to play Return to Castle Wolfenstein online as well as Enemy Territory online, some Neverwinter Nights back in the day 24/7, but that's about it.

any recommendations will be appreciated. TIA

You into strategy games? That is the main purpose for my PC.

I'm in the market for a new laptop. Where'd you find that one if you don't mind me asking?

I love looking at the spec requirements and seeing that they are far below what I have in this laptop

Amazon. this is what I got, but they have a few other ones from ASUS that are all very similar. one has less HDD space but 16GB of RAM.

I'll play just about any game on any console or computer or phone, etc..

I have the an i5 2.5 ghz and nvidia 630m gpu and I can play just about anything. I can't run optimal settings but it still works so yea yours will be fine. I recommend you doing what i just did, buy a monitor for it if you don't already have one. It was a big upgrade over my laptop screen.
