I would like to buy a laptop but Unfortunately I don't really know much about the stuff that's inside a computer (graphics card, processor) and which are good.

I'm looking to get a laptop that I can use daily and play a couple games on it such as Diablo III. I'm looking to spend around $550 or less too. I put a list of a few laptops I found that I *think* will do the job. What do you guys think of the ones below? Which one do you think is the best for the price? Or do you think I should look at a whole different laptop?

1. HP GCRF-M6-1035DX" - Amazon Link - $529.99 refurbished off of Best Buy, has Beats By Dre too which is kind of cool

2. HP Probook 4530s - Found on craigslist for $385 OBO with receipt and 6 months warranty left

3. DELL XPS 13 - Found on craigslist for $500 OBO

4. HP ENVY m6-1125dx - Found on craigslist for $500

5. Samsung Series 7 NP700Z5C-S01UB - Found on craigslist for $450 OBO but it has a bad LCD screen (lines run through it) but everything else works fine. I could probably replace the LCD for around $50-$100 myself.

6. Other? Leave your opinion and let me know what you think.
 
Looking at spec.
First choice, Samsung. But the thing is you don't know if there is anything other than LCD problem...
Second choice refurb HP
 
I would take the samsung as long as there is nothing else wrong besides the screen. You can replace that yourself with a tutorial video. They are everywhere. (youtube it)
 
Of the ones posted, the HP probook is in a completely different catagory. Compairing it to a samsung or a envy would be the same as commpairing a Mack R600 to a S-10. Differet tools for different jobs.

Now. before we suggest you something you don't need, what are you going to use the laptop for? where are you going to use it? Is there a high danger of damage? are you going to do 3d modeling of any kind? Do you need it to be brand new?
