I know the game isn't too intensive and I need some guidance. I am your usual web surfer and blogger, who will occasionally play some LoL. Mobility is why the choice, it's a must.

I'm looking at these from walmart.com, and wondering if I can / need to add a graphics card later? Or should I take the same $$$ elsewhere online and get something better?

Toshiba C75D-B7215 New ($498)
- AMD A8-6410 Quad, 8G / 1TB

HP Silver 17-e067c1 refurb ($429)
- AMD A8-5550-Quad, 8G / 750G

HP Silver 17-e119wm new (?)
- AMD A10-5750-Quad, 8G / 1TB

Acer V5-552P-X440, Refurb ($498)
- AMD A10-5757-Quad, 8G / 1TB

out of those I'd probably take the Acer, but I'm telling you right now playing on a desktop is 10x better than on a laptop

I would build your own desktop, also I would avoid any toshiba's or HP's since they are crap compared to other brands. Definitly Acer then.

If you want I can help you build your desktop since I've build my own gaming rig and I know alot about PC comps.

i5 says nothing about how good that CPU is, say if I have an i7, doesnt mean its better

the fact that it's 3 years old though makes it likely it's not very good anymore

I've been looking for a new machine to run league on as well. I've decided on this desktop which should be more than enough to run league and at a very good price as well. It's tempting to buy a laptop but your money just goes sooo much further if you go for a desktop.
