Are these specs good?

You still need a video card

Who needs video cards anyway?

If he is only going to be playing minecraft you do not need a graphics card, minecraft is a cpu type game and would run completely fine without one. My friend used to play on a laptop without a gpu and only a cpu and he used to get like 400fps but not sure what specs he had.

Which one would you recommend JUST for minecraft? I already have a very powerful gaming computer (latest generation of intel i7 and dedicated graphics and 12GB ram etc) I just need a laptop for whenever im not at home.

FrozenSand Yes that final one is vastly superior.

What about the others?

didnt specify that it was a laptop if your willing to get a pc I could make a bomb ass pc for sub 450 pounds[DOUBLEPOST=1514509326][/DOUBLEPOST]
prebuilts are for peasents

Prebuilts are for whoever get a nice ass deal on them . Two years ago I got a I7 5820k 16GB of ram 2tb of hdd storage a monitor and a GTX 960 2gb for $1100, the monitor was 200$ 27" Ultra wide 1920x1080 60hz, The PC alone was 800-900+ the warranty of a year helped when the fucking mobo broke lol. But ive upgraded it since then and it still is an amazing daily driver.

I personally think that this one is the best deal since it would allow you to do more than just play minecraft:

• Inspiron 15 - 7570
• Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-8250U (Quad Core, up to 3.40 GHz, 6MB Cache, 15W)
• Windows 10 Home (64bit)
• 8GB (1x8GB) 2400MHz DDR4 SDRAM Non-ECC
• 1 TB SATA Hard Drive (5400 RPM)
• 128 GB Solid State Hard Drive
• 4GB NVIDIA GeForce 940MX
• Software
• Intel 7265AC + BT4.2 [802.11ac + Bluetooth 4.2, Dual Band 2.4&5GHz, 2x2]
• LCD Back Cover : Platinum Silver
• Primary 3-cell 42W/HR Battery
• 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS Truelife LED-Backlit Narrow Border Display
• Internal UK/Irish Qwerty Backlit Keyboard

But if you don't want to pay the extra money and just want to play minecraft then I recommend the first option you gave.

that cpu looks ok

Yup, those specs are way better.

Do you know of the next best laptop under those specs or similar for under £500??

 

[Lockheed]

I suggest a pc not a laptop, you could get something good for 500 us dollars

 

[RockyHorses]

Neither of them are good...

 

[Picturesque]

Neither of them are good...

I think he gets the point...

Anyways, what's your budget?

 

[Ivain]

If you're on a budget, I can recommend the GTX 1050ti.

That said, what's your budget for this? Perhaps I can find either a prebuilt or get the parts for a custom one that's better than your current options.

If I were you, buy a chrome book for work and the rest build a mid range gaming pc
