I currently don't have a computer that is workable with guild wars.

I'm looking into buying a new computer, but a laptop would be alot more easier for me to use, I am hardly at home.

I was wondering if there is any laptops that run guild wars, and not at a laggy rate.

If so, can you link me to a few?

Thanks!

Heres what I use... my HP DV9500t with NIVIDA 8600 card runs GW on full graphics perfectly... kinda pricey ($1400) but worth every penny, I use it for work and play

Yes there are many laptops that gan run GW maxed without any problems. The only thing is that those laptop are in the 1400$+ price range. Just make sure that the video card that comes with the laptop is a dedicated nVidia or ATI video card, and that the 2nd number of that card is a 6 or above. Otherwise, you'll end up with a laptop on which the video card isn't meant to play games but more meant to watch movies and use common apps like MS word. Also insure that if you buy a laptop with windows XP it has at least 1GB ram, make that 15-2GB RAM for vista. For a game like GW most laptop processors currently on the market will do without any problems, but might not do for other games.
