How much do you want to spend? Does it have to be a laptop? Is FM all you want to play?

I don't know, just nothing stupidly high.

Yes.

Yes, I'm not a PC gamer besides FM/Sims.

What is stupidly high for you though? I don't know much about laptops, they're generally quite a bit more expensive than desktops for comparable performance. All I'd say is get a decent processor like an i3/i5 or something like that, a decent bit of RAM like 4GB+ if all you want is FM. Probably don't need anything flashy in terms of graphics, idk what kind of cards would be good for a low end laptop. If you want to load shit quicker splash for a Solid State Drive. Figure out what you're willing to spend and shop around to see what you can get, I can't really do that when you're so vague about what you want. :P

@prophet I haven't done a ton of research here but I think this would be a better choice. It's a touch cheaper and has beefier graphics, you could actually play a decent amount of games with this with modest settings.

YOU WOULD BE PAYING 40 QUID LESS FOR A DRASTICALLY BETTER PERFORMING MACHINE AND A WORLD OF GAMES TO CHOOSE FROM, I DON'T GET WHY YOU WOULD INTENTIONALLY LIMIT YOURSELF TO ONLY THINGS LIKE FM WHEN YOU COULD EASILY HAVE TONS OF GAMES AVAILABLE.

I'M ASSUMING YOU'VE NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY ANYTHING MORE INTENSIVE. THE STAR WARS STUFF I'M SEEING HERE LOOKS LIKE THE KIND OF THING YOU'D GET OVER IN A WEEK, IT'S YOUR MONEY AND ALL THAT BUT I'D DEFINITELY RECOMMEND GETTING THE MORE COMPETENT MACHINE.
