Hey Santa. I'm going to buy this laptop from HP for $630. Amazed at how I can get a laptop like this for the price but hey I'm not complaining. With a few discounts and coupons I'm picking this up for like $550.

Specs:
• Windows 8.1 64
• AMD Quad-Core A10-5750M Accelerated Processor
• 2GB AMD Radeon™ HD 8750M Discrete
• 15.6-inch diagonal HD BrightView LED-backlit Display (1366x768)
• 8GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
• 1TB 5400 rpm Hard Drive
This Laptop is great for people like us who are on a budget. This laptop is able to run Battlefield 4 (49 FPS on low settings) and pretty much any modern game on low-medium settings. Skyrim runs at I believe 63 FPS on low settings. You won't have any trouble running most games from 2013 and below (possibly some 2014 games).
For some info on the AMD radeon HD 8750M use this link for benchmarks. (scroll to bottom of page to see how games run on it).

None of that memory will do you any good if you dont have a really good GPU and/or a dedicated graphics card.
Start your search from there.

Newer models of his laptop come with dedicated graphics but Dell charges you an arm and a leg for anything in that ballpark.
His laptop has Intel HD 4000 graphics which are integrated graphics. Not quite suitable for running much of anything. I recommend selling the one you have now and try finding something else.
