e: My resolve is seriously wavering; I've been wanting to hold out for more HD5000 laptops so that I could enjoy better battery life will still being a mediocre gaming laptop, but the 410p is looking really nice. The $829 deal for the 1600x900 model goes on for another 7 days, so plenty of time to make up my mind I guess. Are we still looking at late September/October before we start seeing more HD 5000 laptops?


The Y410p from the previous page is $770, just outside of your budget but it would satisfy your needs. If you need to go cheaper, head over to techbargains and keep an eye out for a good deal and then ask about it here. "Moderately demanding FPS's" and "$700 is my budget" conflict with each other, as you'll need a dedicated GPU for moderately demanding FPS's but good dedicated GPUs tend to be on laptops that are more than $700. If you're willing to settle for a laptop that is inside of your budget but can still play a lot of interesting games except maybe FPS's, then you have a lot of options.
