Laptop for light mmo gaming

Go to solution Solved by don_svetlio,

If you want low temps, you want:

Lenovo Y700
MSI GS60
MSI GE62
Asus G552VW
Dell Inspiron 7559

In that order. AVOID Acer, HP and the Asus G551/GL552/GL502/G550/G501

Hi there. Thinking of getting a laptop for some light gaming/school laptop. What I'm primarily gonna play is Final Fantasy XIV and Guild Wars 2. So more heavy on the cpu than gpu. 

 

I've been looking at a few of ASUS's laptops and while most of them seem fine I do see that most people seem to complain about the build quality on the models I've looked at. Since I'm very new to this I'm not sure what to really look for. The only thing I would like is nice temperatures and not really a beast of a machine. 

 

I don't have the need to max graphical settings as it's not going to be my main machine, I'd rather have lower temperatures. 

 

Budget would go up to a maximum of 1000-1100€ but lower is definitely better. 

 

Any help, positive or negative is appreciated. Or tips on what to look for, like the m series of Nvidia cards.
