Edit: I don't intend on playing anything the needs an extremely powerful computer to run (like Skyrim). Civilization V being the game that needs most

Seems like a decent laptop for basic use. Don't expect to be playing any games on it. You will be able to play simple indie games and maybe torchlight2.

I would NOT recommend buying it, plus I have never heard of the brand.

Not if you want to play games.For surfing and emailing it's fine.

Dont buy it you could get better hardwares for cheap price... and... Not Belive in Notebook upgrades , you can only change his Hard Disk and the memory probably is on limit.. so if you plan to use Office /internet will be great if you whant to use games/graphic suits will be horrible :)

It's ok-ish for the most part (as a laptop), except a very week CPU.
I mean, mine's a 2.3ghz, and I'm beginning to run into games that i can't even run properly at minimal settings.
If you wish to do any kind of semi-decent gaming, you're gonna have to shell out considerably more (probably at least double that amount, though I don't know how UK prices compare to my local ones, so actual comparisons may not be accurate).

Skyrim is not that graphic-demanding...it will even run on Intel cards in medium setting.
As with your choice -- Probably you will find a better laptop with faster CPU (core i-series, probably) with that price.

it barely runs @ 30 fps on low with the Intel HD 4000 (I tried it with my 660m turned off)

terrible processor, good RAM, really terrible graphics card, and good HD space. basically, its good for surfing the web or using Microsoft Office, but games wont run on it (except the ones with REALLY low specs)
get an ACER, theyre much better
