is this designed for gaming?

Yes, it was very reliable for an older board. I now run an ASUS Maximus VII Formula.

Absolutely. That's what it's meant for. With its high quality NIC, sound card, overclocking features, SLI/CF support, etc... it's completely designed to be used for gaming and it's been working very well for me.

No and no! This is definitely not a gaming laptop, it couldn't handle it. It's more of an everyday task type of computer. Mine is still doing great after a year!

It is not a good computer if you are a serious gamer. For simple games it will do.

yes it is perfect for gaming. it has dual GT755m graphic cards. If you compare this to the other cards. It is %10 better then GTX770m. It means you can play BF4 with ultra settings. Just remember that all the game laptop becoming hot after playings and you should have a good cooler with this...

I am not sure if this is really the machine for this kind of applications. You can only load 2 gig of memory and that is not really enough to play any games.

Fiirst. The clicking isnt super loud. I use it for gaming and i havent found any problems with it. So yes, i would use it for gaming

Sorry I just saw this. No it is not. I bought it for world of Warcraft and come to find out it had no graphics card so I purchased one. When I went to install it I also found out there is no place for a graphics card fit for gaming.

It's only a fair gaming machine. While the processor is powerful, it's slow by today's standards. I think you would be frustrated with the games your are looking at.

This computer is not designed for gaming, I had to install a video card in order to play games, I am playing watch dogs right now, no complaints

no, it simply would not do any good for gaming. For gaming you would need at the very minimum 4-8 GBs of RAM (this has 1 GB RAM which is very bad especially for gaming) and about 3.1GHz or an Intel Core i3 / Intel Core i5 hope this helps :)

Yeah. I use it exclusively for gaming. Works pretty good. What do I play? BF3, 4, Hawken, CoDs, Crysis 2, 3 and some UT3. For something that's 20 bucks, it aint bad. If it breaks, I'll just go buy another one. I use a Logitech EX110 for work purposes. What's my game stuff? Intel i7 3770 cpu, Asus P8z77-V LK motherboard, WD 2.5 Velociraptor HDD, XFX HD7950 gpu, G.Skill 16gb 19200 ram, Corsair RM750 psu, Corsair H100i liquid cooler.

Yes it's good for PC gamers. I got this for my son who wanted it to use for his x box one and I asked him your question and he said it's good for PC gamers.

Oh yes. Definitely good for games. I play TF2, Minecraft, Tekkit, and various other steam games. They all run great. For the price this is definitely the best gaming laptop out there. I actually got it for 375 (not including tax) at Best Buy as an open box deal! I suggest looking there.

not if you expect to do any graphics or game playing. the bandwidth is not sufficent and it is not driven by your graphics card.

Don't get this to play games with it. There's a noticeable lag when playing games. It's good to use for normal computer use.... But I wouldn't recommend gaming with it.

Not a gamer myself, I bought for my son, and he uses it for exactly that reason. Works great.
