Review of the Acer 5741G-434G50, Acer eMachines E640G, HP DV6-2160, HP G62-a10, Dell Inspiron N5010, MSI FX600, Toshiba L650-11R, Toshiba L650D-125, Lenovo Y560 and ASUS N53Jn notebook. The popularity of portable PCs is on the increase each month. The number of notebooks sold in comparison with ordinary PCs speaks clearly about this. Yet home configurations still have the upper hand in one very strong and profitable segment – gaming. Gaming notebooks are more and more numerous, but their prices go from 1000 EUR upwards, while a really wicked machine requires nearly 2000 EUR. Desktop variants offer much better performance for way less money. Of course, you won't be carrying them around and playing games in a park, but gaming is simply much cheaper this way. What we wanted to do this time around is prepare a very ambitious test, i.e. confront desktop PCs and notebooks. As 800 EUR seems to be the go-to price range for a good gaming PC nowadays, the display and peripherals included, we wanted to check out which portable PCs can be bought for that kind of money, with features and performance being worthy of the attribute gaming.
