Cheap gaming laptop help??

[FCRYBKE]

Yup, one of these threads.
I am very stupid when it comes to computers, so I need some help.

My price range is max $500.
not much, but if there is a decent gaming laptop out there, help me find it?

All I know is that I'd like it to not overheat all the time. xP

I know people would tell me to build my own, but I wouldn't know what to choose or what does what.

Help, please? c:

For that price they are all going to have either integrated or a low end dedicated card. Save your money.

I don't know what that means c:

But I NEED a laptop.
so..I kind of can't not buy one.
this one is dying.

So help would be nice.

Its difficult enough to find a decent home/school/business laptop under $500. I work at an electronics retailer and the problem is they come with (like motoxrdude said) integrated or weak graphics options. Maybe a decent APU would work (processor and graphics together) but I'm not sure what laptops have this is decent. Solid gaming laptops are looking over $1000 because they're just harder to build and have specialty parts. Is there a particular reason you want a gaming laptop rather than PC? I haven't seen a retail laptop run anything at max settings besides Doom 3.

There. That will play games "decently." It's the best you can expect for 500 bucks.
