Edit, noted that better APUs were available and updated to recommend the best.

ASUS X550ZE with the FX-7600p

DoTA 2 requires a minimum of dual core 2.8 GHz CPU. The first notebook does not meet these requirements.

Sir what do you think of AMD FX 7600? rather than A10?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

What pricing range are we talking here?
For gaming the best overall options would be a laptop with Intel i5 or i7 w/ NVIDIA GTX GPU

As even the latest AMD FX Mobile APU (4 CPU Cores + 8 GPU Cores) is still quite frankly nothing more than recycled junk. AMD can work as a budget desktop, but basically it fails at being anything in the way of a good mobile device.

Thank you sir for the advice :) I know that i7 is better than Amd 7600P. This is only the laptops are available in my province. Its okay for me to play in medium settings sir. Price range sir is 755$ down.

Yes the FX-7600p is a better CPU / APU and a better idea. I didn't see that option at first.

Yea the AMD FX Mobile APU are newly released; and 7600P would be the best setup to get if that is much more common in your area. Seeing as where u live, a decent Intel+NVIDIA laptop is gonna be way too pricey.

I'd try to get anything other than 5400rpm HDD though.
Even an SSHD would be better option. But if you don't have good options for that, get the included HDD, then swap it out for an SSD and use the HDD for backups, file storage, etc. If the laptop has the room for two drives, then make the original HDD the 2nd drive when u can. Then simply install OS fresh onto an SSD and run OS + DOTA2 off the SSD.

Dell don't mess with AMD setups, except a few Alienware that have dedicated AMD GPUs in them.

Lenovo, ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte would be good choices.
Also look for Clevo custom config build options, as a site offering those u would have much better options for what you could choose for things like CPU, GPU, RAM, HDD, SSD, WiFi and maybe even the screen and such.

Also the FX-7600p with a R7 M270 or even a R7 M265 GPU in hybrid crossfire would be excellant. Probably about as powerful or slightly more powerful than a Xbox One console.

That'd mean you'd be set for gaming a lot more than just DoTA 2. Pretty much anything should play at some level or another. Can't promise perfect settings or even that all games will be compatible but technically it should be able to play anything a console can as long as the PC version is as well made and can use crossfire properly.
