How to Get Your Hands on a Cheap Gaming Laptop!

Have you noticed that Gaming Laptops are so expensive and you are likely to pay any between $3000 - $6000 for some of the top models. However, in order to produce an exclusive gaming laptop, it requires certain high-end components and specifications. Think about Blu-ray, mega fast processor speeds, superior graphics and a ton of RAM.

This is all well and good, but what happens when the gaming laptop of your dreams, looks like it's just going to remain a dream.

It appears there are a number of ways you can still get your hands on a decent and reliable gaming laptop. OK, in all honesty, it may not have everything that you would get for a higher priced model, but it will still provide you with great performance and allow you to enjoy the latest and up to the minute 3D video games on your laptop.

So where do you start looking?

If you are in the market to purchase a new laptop for your gaming pleasure, there are two that you may wish to consider - The Gateway P-7811FX and the Qosmio X305. Both of these can be purchased for approximately $1500, so a huge saving on what you first considered.

However, if this is still way over your budget, then you still have the choice of a refurbished or used laptop.

A refurbished laptop has usually been returned to the manufacturer because of a slight blemish or scratch. The manufacturer will then put this through quality testing and if it is believed to be acceptable for sale to the general public, it will then be available to you at a much lower price. Usually you will also receive a guarantee and a warranty.

As for used laptops, two of the best ways to get your hands on one is through an auction or even checking out the classified ads of your local newspaper. I would advise a slightly more cautious approach if you are looking to purchase a used laptop. You don't wish to agree a sale and then find you have bought something of no use. This is why I suggest your Local newspaper, this can give you the opportunity to visit the seller and check out your gaming laptop first hand.
