Any recommendations?

Does anyone know if these laptops will run Skyrim well, and which one would be most recommended to get?

The second one, is easily the best but none are brilliant. The second should run skyrim fine on at least medium settings though with at least 30fps.

Hmm... I was thinking of stretching my budget a little bit and maybe getting this instead;

You wouldnt have any problems with that. But if your spending that much on a pc does it have to be a laptop? As you'll get a lot more power out of a desktop for the same price.

Sadly, it does have to be a laptop, as I'll be using it whilst at University in september and there is no room in either my family home room OR the accommodation room (And I'll be moving it in the car every weekend too). I don't mind spending an extra bit on that laptop if it'll handle Skyrim and most other games pretty well.

Thank you very much for the help. :)

You shouldnt have any problems with most games out today.

Ok no problem ;) i would personally wait for some other opinions to see if anyone knows of a better deal etc. As ive been off the laptop scene for a while.

Will do! I won't be getting it for at least a month yet anyway, so I'm keeping my options open, but my eyes focused. :D
