bloody good if you ask me ayy.
If you're going to play Planetside 2, you probably won't get a good framerate with an AMD. But if you're just sticking to Minecraft, AMD is a great choice.If you go with an AMD A10 series processor you can pick up a game worthy laptop for <~$700. It will not be a "Gaming" laptop, but will run most games respectably. If you can wait till the A10 Kaveri mobile series comes out this summer the Apu will be the equivalent of an R7 series graphics card. I have a Kaveri A10 series desktop build I finished a few weeks back and see 100-120 fps on minecraft at near max settings with fancy grass and clouds(no graphics card). My old A10 Trinity series laptop only sees around 60fps.
Planet Side 2 doesn't run well on anything, but it's getting betterIf you're going to play Planetside 2, you probably won't get a good framerate with an AMD. But if you're just sticking to Minecraft, AMD is a great choice.
Aside from your super-expensive Nvidia cardsPlanet Side 2 doesn't run well on anything, but it's getting better
If you throw enough GTX Titans at it, it MAY work :OAside from your super-expensive Nvidia cards
Nahh my evga gtx 780 ti superclocked w/acx cooling can run the fuck out of it xD never checked the fps but its well over 60 all the time on max settings.If you throw enough GTX Titans at it, it MAY work :O

This thread was a great laugh. Gaming Laptops exist only in title. They over heat fast and they have a fairly short lifespan. Most laptops used for gaming die out after 4-5 years where most desktops can last 10-20 depending on how well you care for it. My laptop began to physically melt on itself because I played League for 4 hours a day. Glued on pieced fell off because the glue reactivated, motherboard eventually gave up and the ram is all warped. Mind you, I was rocking a 300 dollar store bought, but give it time and your laptop will start overheating at the very least.ahahahaahahah good mac pros don't need a dedicated graphics card

Laptops are better for school and working on the go. If I had one, I would be using it to write, down at a local coffee shop. I highly suggest you invest in a 600 dollar PC and love it for 6 years without any problems (Unless you bring them on yourself).
Oh and to hop on the topic of Mac books, they are meant for work and work alone. And not just any work, work like film editing and similar. Using that to game is like buying a 3000 dollar Alienware gaming laptop. You are paying over 50% more money for a brandname.
