$540.99 - Meets bare Minimum Requirements, but not really recommended.
14.0"1366 x 768
https://www.newegg.com/p/2WC-005H-00004?quicklink=true
Dell Grade A Laptop Inspiron14“ 7447 Intel Core i5 4th Gen 4210H (2.90 GHz) 8 GB Memory 128 GB SSD 500GB HDD Hard Drive NVIDIA GeForce GTX 850M GDDR3 4GB+Intel GMA HD 4600 14.0" Windows 10 64-bit


$744.99 - Meets Recommended Requirements ( 2016 Generation Hardware ) Has SSD for Faster <Join Game/Portal> load times , Decent Audio, Touch Screen = Yes
https://www.newegg.com/p/2WC-005J-00005
1920 x 1080 ( 2GB Video memory )55-60 Fps
Machenike T58 15.6" FHD Gaming Laptop ( Intel Core i7-7700HQ 2.80Ghz, 8GB RAM, 256SSD, 1TB HDD Hard Drive, Nvidia GTX 1050 4GB, Win 10 Home )


$709.99 - Meets Recommended Requirements ( 2020 Generation Hardware), SSD, for Faster <Join Game/Portal> load times , HD Audio, Touch Screen = no, Backlight Keyboard = yes , Webcam = Yes
1920x 1080P ( 4GB video memory ) 60 FPS stable
https://www.newegg.com/p/2WC-0033-00088
EVOO Gaming Laptop, 15.6" FHD Display, Intel Core i5-10300H Upto 4.5GHz, 8GB RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, HDMI, Mini DisplayPort, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Windows 10 Home (EG-LP10-BK)

-------------------
$540 laptop is just bare minimum requirements even with the best performance tuned options.
( Keep in mine that Minimum requirements will actually be increasing over time with updates ) I would expect after 6 months, that this laptop will not be enough to run the game.

744.99 Its older/slower by 8% , but its touch screen.


709.99 Newer hardware , 8% faster, no touch screen, but has webcam/back-light keyboard. + it had blutooth & has twice as long wifi signal range.
Would Definitely say this would be the Winner.

You may Find ( non-Gaming laptops) on amazons website for 600 that look like these specs, but I assure you they aren't even close.
You may be able to find 2016 Hardware version laptops on Ebay/amazon/ facebook-market, used and replace battery if needed. thats also an option.

Thank you sooo sooo much!! I will be getting the $709 one

Just curious though...is this the same laptop? I copy/pasted the specs into Google and what looks exactly the same came up on Walmart for 579...

I rather purchase from Walmart just because it's $140 cheaper and easier to deal with returns through walmart

Thanks. The company on Newegg had a few negative reviews so I was a little nervous. Going to be getting this PC next week I'll let you all know how it goes in case someone else needs a $549 D2R pc

Newegg is the most trusted place i've ever ordered from.
My Half-Brother & his dad also have placed many orderes, and never had an issue, since like 2006-2007, they have been around for ever.
several of my gamining friends order stuff from them monthly, Even the local school district in our area has ordered from them, and thats saying a lot.

Its not like Alibaba or ebay, or even amazon 3'rd party ect.
Even Popular computer stores like Micro-Center can be crappy at times.

Newegg is very legit, they even have their own youtube channel, there shipping is normally pretty good about being on time.
If anyone has posted a bad review, I can certainly say without a doubt,Most of it was probably a personal problem, Or a UPS/Fed-ex truck blew up ect.
( Not every place can make everyone happy ) I can only express the experience of myself, friends/family

Ask everyone here on d2jsp, they will tell you :)
