I dunno if I speak for him. But I'm completely unable to get a rig because I have no space what so ever and I need the laptop's portability. It's difficult as a gamer ;-;
If space is limited there is always MicroATX or Mini ITX based systems they'd offer alot more gaming ability then a laptop

You could get a small gaming PC and hook it up to your TV. You wouldn't need desk space for a monitor and speakers.
The Steam Machines would be suitable if they weren't overpriced, but you could also assemble something yourself or buy a cheap pre-assembled PC.
Anyone know if this is any good? Literally upgraded for inquisition.

No you guys don't understand, I have limited space AND need portability. Because I share the room with my brother and he often uses the desk for his stuff, then I move to my other brother's room until he needs his, so then I just move to the living room, yes it's this hectic every day. ;-;

A mini ITX gaming system inside something like the new Corsair 380T is very portable(even has a built in carry handle) inside of which you could fit a i7 4790K,16GB RAM,GTX 770/780 and a Corsair H100i AIO to cool the CPU along with a couple of mechanical or SSD drives.

And that's one of the larger ITX cases there are smaller ones that will still hold something far more powerful then any laptop

Should get medium/high in 1080P without issue mine is as it stands this second:
Windows 7(64 Bit)
i5 4670K Overclocked to 4.4Ghz ( Cooled by a Corsair H105 with 4 Corsair SP120 PWM quiet editions)
Asus Maximus VI Formula
16GB Corsair Vengeance pro 2400Mhz (will be increasing to 32GB)
Powercolor PCS+OC R9 290 4GB x1(will be adding a 2nd by end of next month)
2 Seagate 2TB Mechanical HD's
EVGA Supernova G2 1300W PSU
10 Fans( 4 Corsair SP120's on the H105 2 Corsair AF140 L.E.D(white),2 Phanteks PH-F140HP's,1 Corsair AF140 and 1 NZXT 140 that came with my NZXT Switch 810 SE Matte black Case)
By the end of the year both GPU's will be watercooled in a custom loop using a D5 pump and Alphacool rads (240 and a 140 )

Thank you firstly for the suggestion.
But:
1-
I doubt I can find that in my country :S
2-
Plus that's without the monitor, a monitor will still be tedious to move and again I have no functional TVs and such.
Though again thank you. I think I'll be strolling down the techno malls here and ask about it.
You might be able to,though generally my advice is if you want to play anything more modern then minecraft don't use a laptop they are not very good at dealing with heat but YMMV even the gaming laptops I would avoid
Eh, I've got a good cooling pad and even if I didn't I'm fine with microwaving my legs. Don't really have the cash/space for a rig, so I have to make do.

Oh thanks, I was really wanting to play in Ultra.. 
Oh thanks, I was really wanting to play in Ultra..
you might be able to though I'd guess your framrate would suffer the bulk of you system is sound the 760 might slow it down a bit although its been about 6 years since I last used an Nvidia card but my guess is that for Ultra you'd be looking at a GTX 770/780 or you could add a second 760.Though as I say I've gone AMD last 6yrs now more so then ever as my non reference R9 290 runs faster,cooler and quieter then the best non reference GTX 780 and costs £100-£180 less.
) will reply with saying it will work fine. 
Or I'll be a sad panda.
Windows 7? Really? Screw that.I assume if you can run BF4 and/or NFSR than you shouldn't have problems running DAI.https://systemrequirementslab.comAt the moment the only system requirements is Windows 7 or higher lol,it will be updated.http://www.dragonage.../en_US/preorder

Do you guys think one 780 ti will max this game with 60 fps at 1440p? I max bf4 with 60 fps average(though it does frustratingly dip at times), but I heard bf4 isn't actually a good indicator for this game.
Any thoughts?
I just had the bad luck of my PC breaking down. Right now it with looks like I have to get a new one and if that is the case then I wont be able to get a PS4 like I planed, because I'm poor. So the plan is to get a PC that can play DA:I and hopefully make it look as good.
Now, as I'm on a budget I have to set a low pricerange so I would like to hear what you think of the specs. I can't link it since it's in Swedish so I'll type some of the info here. I have no idea what important so I write just about everything.
It's an Acer spire XC605 with Win. 8.1, Intel Core i7-4770, 4 cores 3.40 GHz, 8 GB RAM on 1600 MHz, CPU Cache 8 MB, GeForce GT 620 with 1GB RAM, Intel Express H81 Chipset.
There also was one with GTX745-4GB but it had only Core i5-4460 3.2GHz. Most I have found are i5's and the one I have now are an i7. I really don't like the idea of downgrading.
So what do you think? PS4 have something like the GTX 660. CI'm hoping someone (best would be a dev
Hello Johnny. I have the same CPU in my custom build and it is an amazing processor; quite fast, very reliable and it runs quite cool on my system with average temps idling between 12 and 25 degrees celcius (even in the heat of summer) and even cooler than that in the winter (my room is like an incinerator in the summer and a meat locker in winter, due to a lack of insulation in the walls). Even under load while playing a game (ie ME 3 with all settings at max) it barely hits 40 degrees and cools right down within seconds.
If you're in the market for a very good mid-range video card that is very reasonably priced, I would recommend the GTX 760 Dual FTW (pref. 4 GB, but you could get away with the 2 GB version a well) from EVGA. EVGA is Nvidia's go-to company and has been for nearly 20 years or more. Gigabyte is also very good and on par (in terms of quality/reliability) with EVGA. Between the two it is simply a matter of preference.
If you're looking for good quality, reliable RAM...my two top choices would be G Skill (in particular their RIP Jaws X or Z series) or Mushkin (though mushkin is expensive). My third choice would be a tie between Corsair or Crucial (both come highly recommend from many different companies and Magazines) and also have each received very good independent ratings and reviews.
For a motherboard I would recommend EVGA (if you can find them they are excellent...but can be difficult to find and depending on the seller, expensive. my other choice for a main board would be Gigabyte. Gigabyte is actually the best-selling motherboard brand world-wide. ASUS, while they were excellent mb manufacturers in the 90s for every reason under the sun, many will tell you that they have fallen off their pedestal. While here in North America ASUS does have good marketing, in real terms of quality/reliability etc (good ol fashion values), they have greatly lagged behind many competitors. Not to mention that the market for ASUS is really only in North America. Europe has been dominated by Gigabyte and MSI (to a lesser extent). The thing to watch out for if considering Gigabyte is their pricing; most boards are very cheap (between 60 and 180.00 dollars) while there are a very select few models that are quite expensive (300 to 400 dollars)...so I guess what I'm saying is, if you are considering Gigabyte, talk to a rep or tech who has experience with that company before making a choice, and ask for his/her recommendation.
As for MSI it has been my experience and acquired understanding that they do have some excellent products (their Gaming 5 and 7 series of boards comes to mind) and they have competitive prices...But in terms of specific product comparison (GPUs to motherboards) I've been told that the quality does not always equally transcend across their entire range, especially when compared to competitors like EVGA and Gigabyte. So again...if you have any questions and want an honest answer-- always ask the rep to give you their honest opinion, not just bs you to try and make the sale....don't be afraid to ask!
I hope this answers your questions.
Good luck with finding/building the system that you want....and I hope you have fun in the process.
Windows 7? Really? Screw that.
That just means they aren't testing on Vista, but since Vista supports DirectX 11.0, I think it should work.
That would be a relief. I would understand dropping XP support, since it's really old now, but Vista is not.That just means they aren't testing on Vista, but since Vista supports DirectX 11.0, I think it should work.

I'd avoid anything pre built especially that Aspire the 4770 runs quite hot(its renowned for it actually) if its on the stock cooler which it will be it'll also be loud the power supply will likely be some cheap nasty mass produced thing,1600Mhz RAM is the bare minimum tbh you should be looking at 1855Mhz Ram and up as for the GT 620 GPU just don't a card with 1GB Vram just wont cut it on modern games what you need is something like a 760/770 minimum
Generally speaking its best to build your own take your time save your money and buy quality parts is the best advice I can give and whatever you do dont cheap out on the Power Supply.Your not realistically going to be able to build a gaming PC for anything less then about £450-£500 If you went with something like an AMD A10 7700K,an Asus Motherboard to go with it,8GB DDR3 1866, R9 270 GPU,1TB Mechanical Hard Drive and a 600W 80 plus bronze PSU from Corsair/EVGA etc
http://www.overclock...475&subcat=2485
The above link is to a system that if bundled with a 4GB R9 270X would cost around £535 should give you playable frame rates on medium/high

Its pretty potent for a $600 rig though every test I have seen the R9 270X outperforms the 750Ti while costing the same or in many cases less,its a good starting point though.I've spent about $2000 on my rig by the time I'm done it'll be about $3500 about $600 of that will by on a 2K monitor, the rest is on 2 Powercolor PCS+OC R9 290's an i5 4670K@4.4Ghz, 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro 2400Mhz,EVGA Supernova G2 1300W PSU with a Corsair H105 AIO and 10 Corsair SP/AF fans in 120 and 140 sizes and a few 2TB+ HD's
Have most of the system done with only the 2nd R9 290 and another 16GB kit of the 2400mhz ram to get the GPU will be here by end of September

Do you mean 4k monitor ? but yes once the broadwell cpu chipset is out am gonna go i7 8 core and can't wait for the gtx 800 cards to come out i only got the 750 ti i wanted to see wait the maxwel line of gpu was like lets just say am impressed

Nope 2K(2560x1440) its the intermediate resolution between 1080P and 4K,4K just isn't feasable right now on anything less then 2 Titan Z's,where as 2K is very feasable on a pair of 780/780ti/R9 290/290X's.
People have crazy setups... 
Mine:
Asus P8H67
i3-2120
GTX 550 Ti
4Gb (can't remember Mhz, probably 1333)
I've been playing Skyrim on ultra at 1440x900 with that (no ENB)... will DA:I be a lot more demanding than Skyrim?
If I were to spend about £120, the cpu could conceivably be upgraded to an i5-3470 or I could get a GTX 750 Ti gpu instead. Which would be better?
Just tell us the specs already Bioware!!

Yeah the game comes out in like 2 months, shouldn't they know what it will take to run by now?

your CPU is fine but i would say just upgrade your GPU to the gtx 750 ti you be set
