What is a good laptop for games and school? Like a powerful one, but can also do work programs needed for an online school, like Microsoft Word and stuff like that.
any laptop can run stuff like MS word, but define the games choices and budget, they have several decent gaming laptops that you can get but without a set budget I can only recommend some I’ve been looking at…If you are on a slight budget (<1500) there are some dell and MSI rigs up your alley and they will run Doom(2016) on high/mid-high:https://www.adorama.com/msigp62m...It offers speed with an Intel I7 7700HQ at 2.8 ghz, 256 gb SSD 1TB HDD and 16 gig of ram with a NVIDIA GTX 1060 6 GB GPU
What is a good gaming laptop that I can also use for school work and in college?
You are asking for a laptop to be able to do everything. Gaming computers have to be powerful, so they are heavy - and drain a battery in a couple of hours - its just the way it is. Portability & reliability are a must for college. So, unless you are ready to spend about $2500 you need to decide where you will make sacrifices. A powerhouse that weighs 7 lbs. Or an ultrabook that gets 8 hours of battery and is reliable. I only use ThinkPad T-series - they are the most reliable laptop there is. But they are business laptops - not meant to be used for gaming, or even watching movies - they dont have the ultra HD res like some other laptops (only max @ 1600x900). But they are built like a freakin tank. For gaming, I have a beast of a desktop - I cant have everything all in 1 so I had to sacrifice because I didnt want to spend $3500 on a portable gaming laptop. (Even though the ThinkPad T-series is $1700) What I can tell you is brands to avoid, and brands to focus on, and when to run like hell. BAD: HP Toshiba (not what they used to be) DeLL Inspirons RUN LIKE HELL: Acer Compaq Gateway e-machine FOCUS ON: gaming ASUS $ Falcon Northwest Fragbook $$$ Digital Storm $$ FOCUS ON: reliability DeLL Latitude series ThinkPad T-series Alienware is nothing but overpriced Dell - crap customer service, non-reliable with fancy colors. If you want it to look cool - head over to colorware-pc.com and have them trick it out for you I know you wanted specifics, but the actual model is something only you can choose since you didnt even mention a budget .... If you want specifics - you need to be more specific in your question.

Playing PC games on my school laptop?
First off, you need to find out it that particular computer can handle the amount of processing power it takes for the computer to run games like that. Considering it's a school laptop, it is probably more of a business laptop. that is not designed to play games. It may not have a good enough graphics card. As for downloading, I guess you could use some torrent sites.
Is the Samsung RC510 a good laptop for school and a bit of gaming?
I'm looking at a new laptop, and I found this. It looks ideal for schoolwork due to its big hard drive and its 15.6 portable screen size. However, on top of schoolwork I also want this for a bit of gaming. This would include The Sims 3 games, World of Warcraft and perhaps Call of Duty. I know this laptop isn't a 'gaming laptop' and that's not what I need as primarily this would just be for internet surfing and essay work, but it would also be used in my spare time so the ability to play at least Sims 3 at good quality and play WOW well would be good. COD is also something I play but only rarely, but it would still be nice if this laptop would be able to play this game. Here's the specs: Intel® Core™ i3-380M Processor - 2.53 GHz - 2.5 GT/s DMI - 3 MB Smart Cache - Dual Core 6 GB DDR3 RAM Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce 315M graphics processor - 1 GB GDDR3 dedicated graphics memory Screen type LCD widescreen Screen resolution - WXGA - 1366 x 768 Screen size 15.6" Screen features LED-backlit Gloss SuperBright Hard drive 640 GB SATA

Is it better to have a gaming laptop and a school laptop or to have a laptop that you can use for both? My main thing is the noise it'll make in class
Why do you need gaming ON THE GO? That’s the question that I’d want an answer to. And… answering with things that are only “wants”, doesn’t cover my request for the need for gaming on the go.If it isn’t a need, then you would be better off getting a gaming desktop, and a school or general use laptop. Then, you can improve your gaming experience as you get better games, instead of having to use the gaming laptop as it is until you replace it.That’s the thing about the gaming laptop. It is a fixed moment in time. A hardware snapshot. The games it plays well… are pretty much the games you can count on it only ever playing well. As new games come out that need a little bit more processor or GPU, or the newest DirectX, you can’t upgrade the laptop in bits and pieces.The desktop gives you the freedom to essentially reach in and remove the weakest module and replace it. Essentially.You can step sideways into a solution that is *more* tailored to your situation. As much as I cringe to even suggest this, Alienware has recognized this, and is now offering a hardware docking station to combine a lightweight (and quiet) smaller laptop, with a powerful gaming video card in a separate box… so you can use the laptop on the go in class… and then hook it up to the box and external monitor and do your gaming.Just not on the go.Which brings me back to my original question. Why do you NEED gaming on the go?At any rate my advice revolves around the concept that the best PC gaming is done on a desktop… and that moving away from that platform and what it offers to PC gaming is moving away from an improved experience.
