He already stated that he doesnt have room, read the post. I would think the last one looks the best because the GPU, but laptop parts are not my cliche. All I know is the 950 is gonna be garbage and the 960 isnt much better, but I dont know what specific AMD card is either. Unfortunately laptops are much higher price performance.

If he has no room for a PC then he must live in a box... You could build a mATX or even mITX PC that would be more or less the same size as a laptop for cheaper..

Plus the desk, and monitor, and key board, and mouse, and a chair for the desk, etc. I agree, laptops arent great unless you want to fork out 2000$ for one thatll run games as good as an 800$ desktop, but its his PC, abide with his form of it.

Best bet is to build a micro PC, But he said that he doesn't have room, So he wants a laptop. I agree with you, because you don't really get good performance with a Laptop unless you fork out $1200+

I'd honestly be surprised if you don't have enough room for a small desk. You'd be better off doing that and building a nice, small form factor PC, IMO.

If anyone can find any better laptops for £800 please fire them at me. Although I know they'll all be crap but as long as the game can run on it with decent graphics I'm fine with that.

Be like LinusTechTips, squeeze good hardware; in a tiny, tiny MicroATX case.

Laptops are expensive for good performance.
