Can you recommend a cheap laptop for gaming?

I haven't idea what would be the minimum requirements. The OH wants to play online games like world of Warcraft.

Can anyone put into simple terms the minimum needed?

Thanks
Always on the hunt for a bargain.

    Cheap Laptop and Gaming tend to be mutually-exclusive terms, depending on the nature of the game.

    What's your budget?

    when you choose , what seems to be the best laptop , liik at the CPU specs and number , then goto http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php scroll down until you find the number and check out its performance , check if the CPU has a letter after its number (m or t or similar) those are generally cut down CPUs made for laptops and have a lot less performance
