Can you give us a list of games you’re interested in playing on it? It’ll help us gauge what you need.
you can build a computer that plays left 4 dead for $500 (not including monitor/keyboard/mouse).
As for buying a prebuilt computer… you are probably looking at closer to $1000 (not including monitor) for something that can game decently
my laptop plays l4d decently and its an inspiron 1501…they should be 4-500 now… its not the greatest machine ever (not in anyones lifetime) but I can play and I enjoy it.
true… do you have any links to that site where you got your laptop for that price…
and does it just play it is there like lag or its pretty good?

any suggestions on the dvd drive?will cheap work?
Remember you get what you pay for.
I highly recommend Sony/Optiarc and LG. I have used nothing but Sony drives and they are solid.
As for a CPU, don’t screw with a barebone. If just one piece is broke you usually have to send the whole thing back. If you order a processor, get a retail chip that comes with a heatsink/fan. The last thing you want to do is order a 2nd rate heatsink and be out all your money because it died and took the chip with it. In essence, get an Intel retail processor. You’ll be happier.
