HP 15-bw032WM 15.6" Touch Screen Laptop Bundle, Windows 10, AMD A12-9720 Quad Core Processor, 8GB Memory, 1TB HDD, Wireless Mouse and Backpack - Smoke Gray

was 579.99 , was at walmart for black friday 399.99
I bought it last night, last one for 299.99

I opened it, i tried to play minecraft , only got 38 to 42 fps... for just minecraft.
its only got 512MB Vram ...

I can't play minecraft , league of legends, or diablo 3 or wow... even on low settings.


Thinking/planning on returning it...
I thought i could be cheap, thought being the leatest A12 cpu... it would have decent graphics... like at least 80 fps in minecraft minimum...

Looking for a laptop that has
15"+ screen, preferable touchscreen
gtx980 +
Thinking an msi laptop, for the rainbow keyboard? idk if each letter/button can be customized to a different color or if its just made like that?

I am just looking to see if any of you have seen any good new special sales / discounts or anything new and exciting?

looking to spend up to $1,300

Yeah no dedicated gaming laptops with touch screens. Not that I've heard of at least.
closest to your needs would be Asus UX550 and Dell XPS 9560. But they are pricer than most gaming loptops since there aren't saved cash on plastic housing, bad performance SSD, low color accuracy screen etc.

yeah these 2 are the next best thing, but dang...
Maybe ill just survive with this laptop until end of march , when i move and ill be able to use my desktop again.

was hoping for a touch screen laptop with gtx 1050 and light up keyboard for like 900 bucks range.. but I guess ill have to wait another year or 2 ha ha.

Found it on Newegg originally, but it was bundled with $50 worth of crap, and marked up almost $300. :/

Lol was it too hard to google the A12 and read the millions of topics of people foolishly buying it for gaming?
