Hi there guys, i have an opportunity to get this laptop really cheap, but im not sure its something i want. Im looking for a laptop that would be able to run most games, especially the upcoming GW2, and Diablo 3. Also, is there a difference between laptop and nokebook lol?

Anyways, here is the notebook

HP g6 15.6" Core I3-2330m Notebook with 4GB of DDR3 RAM and 640GB HDD

Think these specs would be able to run GW2 or Diablo3 decently? If not, am i able to upgrade the necessary components =p

Sorry, i know i've asked a lot, but if anyone would be able to answer some of my questions i would really appreciate it :) The price is right, but if it doesnt do what i need it to do, whats the point

Thanks a lot,

Jonny
 
That could prob get decent settings on the monitors resolution. But don't expect high shading or some of the other more intensive settings, intel hd graphics sort of suck. If there is a similar priced laptop with an amd a6 or a8 I think it is CPU, those are a little slower but the integrated graphics kicks butt.
