is this laptop good for gaming like CSGO, overwatch, Growtopia, LoL. Can it edit videos, record etc

[Shiv78]

no, it doesn't have a dedicated GPU or a quad core CPU. What is your budget?

[JoostinOnline]

Definitely not.  It is a dual core without a discrete GPU.  You're going to need to spend more money.  You should also plan for something that will last longer.  This is what I have.  It's a generation older so it's cheaper for pretty good performance.

Saving another 200 will put you in the sweet zone and give you a lot more perfomance

How about asking for one that's $2?  Because the answer won't change.  $600 is enough for a solid business laptop.  It's not enough for a gaming laptop.  Save some money or sell some stuff first.

That laptop (Acer Aspire 5, which just recently came out) is about $600 which can cover your basic photo/video editing and gaming needs due to its Nvidia MX 150 (which essentially is a GT 1030). Don't expect to do gaming in max settings on current titles and heavy photo/video editing on this guy though, as the i5-7200U can hold you back. If you plan on doing heavy editing and gaming on high settings, you need something with quad-core CPU and GTX 1050 (or above).

It's actually less powerful than a 1030, which is already a pretty terrible deal.

 

The fact of the matter is, if you want something that will last you more than a year, you need to save a little more money.

I isnt a bad laptop. But my opinion is to save an extra 1-200 if you're already spending 600 and get something that'll give a better experience and for longer

For gaming it's bad.  If he was just doing some photo editing and browsing, it would be good.

Well if you have 600 dollars and for some reason it would take you months to get the money for a better one, then anything is good. But yea you'd probably need to run low-mid on most games.
