BUY help with Laptop
Looking for a laptop under 300$US that can run this game. I looked at BestBuy but not sure if they meet the requirements. If you can refer me to a deal that would be awesome.

I just need the least expensive that can run this game.
dont buy a laptop. PC components like a power supply, monitor, and case will last you over a decade and are cheaper and better. check out the builds that pc master race has, good place to start. also, best buy is an abortion. use newegg or amazon or pc part picker. if you only got $300, then its better that you save some more, imo

Can you shut up with the master race stuff? Its old, outdated, nobody cares?

Besides, How do you knowe about power supply stuff when you're using a 750 Ti?.... lol

So Im just looking for a cheap travel Laptop that can run DE offline.

im confused u litterally sent a more expensive link saying that it is cheaper, and not sure why you are clowning on pc master race, when everybody on steam has pc. In regards to op, here is the best deal i found on a sub $300 laptop that should be able to run DE

thanks Hood.

You seem not 100% it would run DE..I didnt realize it was going to be so much harder than HD .

The only reason I put 300$ is because I didnt want to take expensive items on trips abroad.

Would under 500$ get me a portable that will handle DE for shure at 100%?

maybe just stick with HD...

thanks for the advice guys

I play on a Z-5070 Lenovo laptop, I've had it since 2015, so it's 5 years old now, but still working well and can run aoe2de well too, but without the 4K graphics DLC.
It has i5 4210u processor, 6 GB of RAM, Nvidia GT840m and 1 TB HDD. :)

Forgot to tell you that its screen is not full HD, so 1366*768 is the maximum resolution available, however unlike HD and AoC/WK on Voobly, DE is more zoomed out at 1366*768. So field of view at maximum zoom out is decent (at least for me) albeit of course less than a 1920*1080 (Full HD) screen.

Have you ever donme hardware surveys?

Cause umm,I can tell you thats not true.

Also, You're giving a link to a used laptop. I wouldnt ever get a used laptop unless its a proper gaming laptop. You do be surprised how many people actually have a laptop isntead of a PC.

And essentially, they're just pcs. Just not the tower pc's you're used too. -.-

I didnt say it was cheaper? The laptops I posted ware 449 and
539
