Any good budget laptops for rocket league?
I need a good budget gaming laptop, one that can hold rocket league pretty well. Under 800 USD, but prefer 600-700 USD.

This comp is on the higher end of my budget but seems to be good.

the store page system requirement/recommendations is not accurate, IMO..

i used to have a rig that was slightly better than the recommended specs...it was a 2.6 Ghz quad core, 8 gb ram, and a GTX970...the base framerate was around 45fps, and the game was pretty playable...but not without issues. the game would stutter a bit when it had to change the rendered scene very quickly, (which happens a lot in rocket league) for example, when the ball is pinched in front of you and shoot to behind you, making your camera do a near instant 180. hiccup city.

it may not sound like a big deal, but the hiccups can be really distracting, and the framerate just not being 100% consistent feels super bad to the point i think it hurts a players ability to focus and therefor, cant play their best.

i upgraded the rig to a i6700k 4.0 Ghz, 16gb ram, and still using the GTX970...i get 168 fps normally. im not sure what it dips down to when the camera does the 180 thing, but i dont notice it at all, so i assume its over 60 fps, the limit of my monitor.

you dont need specs that high to play rocket league well, and definitely not in a laptop, but dont trust the store page recommendations. you want something much better. the GTX970 is fine, so get something similar or better...or at least not much worse. 8Gb ram is probably fine...personally, i would look for something with a 3.0 Ghz processor or better.
