hey can anyone tell me if i bought this would it play tf2 with little lag as possible
The Sony VGN-AR17E makes an excellent alternative to a desktop PC. Featuring a superb 17" widescreen display, and with a huge memory your multimedia applications will run like a dream.

It probably will lag. That Laptop doesn't appear to have a standard graphics card. Integrated graphics are way on the low end.

My suggestion would be to go out and BUILD a cheap desktop computer. It's not nearly as hard as it sounds. Unless you need a laptop in particular, you'd be doing yourself a huge favor by getting a new desktop. I'm sure building will be cheaper than that laptop, because it doesn't take all that much to run TF2 nicely.

If you want to do that, and need help selecting parts, I'd be willing to help you out.

If you want a laptop, dell make cheaper ones which have dedicated graphics card that can play tf2, I told my friend to get one before, cant remember which though.

This Laptop should do you just fine. It's also pretty affordable. Then again, I have no experience with the 7000 series, so you should ask around a bit to hear what others have to say.

EDIT: It also wouldn't hurt to boost the memory on that one, it's relatively affordable.

That's gonna cost a lot though. I went for a cheaper machine, because everyone loves saving money.

Fatality is right though, if you have that much to spend, go with the Asus he posted. It's a much nicer machine. May I also recommend a real mouse? Touch pads are no good for FPS.

I usually find them too sensitive, but okay.
