Hello, I am looking into getting a new laptop priced at about $800., that is hopefully better than my current laptop - The HP Pavilion dv5

It's Specs
Processor: AMD Turion™ X2 Dual-Core Mobile RM-70 2.00Ghz
RAM: 2.00GB
Video Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450
Looking for something that can run
DayZ
Just Cause 2 (Maybe)
Team Fortress 2 - without lag

I would very much appreciate if you could take some time to recommend some laptops for me.

Note:
I live in Australia
Sorry if there is not enough info - I don't know much about computers

Just to reassure you're Just Cause 2 and TF2...

I can play TF2 just fine, Just Cause 2 with a small bit of lag (newly developed problem). But can't play Arma II/DayZ.

I don't know much about different graphics cards, but you don't have enough ram or a fast enough processor for most games. My laptop has 3gb of ram and a 2.3Ghz quad-core processor, and it's about a year + old at this stage, and it can run Arma II at about 20fps on low graphics (Just) :P Which is good, because armA is demanding ( I don't play it often) but it's fine with TF2 and other source games (50-60fps or higher), along with Minecraft and most general games. You might want around 4gb of ram and a more powerful processor.

It looks nice, but the graphics card won't get you to the games you need...

I've been looking at this computer - as far as I know, it's currently the best priced laptop for gaming, short of an Acer.
