Does anyone who owns this know how it handles gaming, specifically Diablo 3?

Hello Micheal, this laptop is not idle for gaming. Don't get me wrong, it will handle games extremely well at low settings but forget about extreme. But for the price, its more than idle. However, if you can shell out a little more then get this HP dv6-6c50us (15.6-Inch Screen) Laptop and upgrade your ram with this Corsair Vengeance Laptop Memory Kit 16 GB (2x8 GB) DDR3 1600MHz CL10 PC3 12800 (CMSX16GX3M2A1600C10), I assure you will get one powerful budget laptop all for around 800 bucks, with a bluray combo drive as an added bonus. This combo will give you a windows experience index rating of 6.4 and 7.5 for gaming graphics and memory operations respectively. Note the max WEI rating is 7.9, so do the maths, believe me $1800 laptops don't have such ratings. Hope this helps.

We haven't run WoW on it. But it runs Rift, Elder Scrolls Online and other games/MMOs at full settings without issue. It should have no trouble running WoW.

I have used my Diablo since I purchased and it has work well for me. You can try removing the batteries and reinstall or make sure you are in the right mode.

I really don't know , I cant play allot if games .. But the games I can play are amazing ,, I can not watch Netflix on it either ,, Warcraft uses and takes allot of memory which you don't have allot of on the slate , also you have to be careful with the slate it wants to down load games every night .. dont let it ...

I think so. It willl work with it, if it is AM3+ and R2.0 or more. I am using ASUS M5A97 and it works also very well. AMD FX9370, ASUS M5A97 R2.0, 16GB Ram, and GTX 560, SSD - Win Score is 7.7(GTX 560 Score, others are 7.8 ~ 7.9 - 7.9 is the highest). For the game, depends on what you play. If you want to kill Diablo, it will works well.... also Battlefield 4. If you are just a normal user, you can't idemtify the differences between FX9370 and i7.

As a matter of fact, I do. I've been playing an MMO as well was a few emulator and Minecraft games and it works extremely well. It's got a lot of graphic options for the graphic card it comes with so I'm able to adjust accordingly, though the default setting work perfectly fine for me. It runs very smoothly and I don't seem to have any latency or lag (except you know the occasional internet hiccup).

I play World of Warcraft, Diablo III, and Defiance. Not at their highest resolution or frame rate, but entirely adequate. For other games, you should check the system requirements. This is by no means a dedicated gaming system, but for the price it is okay.

I play runescape and other games on it for 10 to 12 hours a day. If your going to play anything higher end I would suggest if you got it to put more ram in then 6gb otherwise I havent had too many issues with games. I do facebook, sims3, runescape, tera online, and a few other mmorpg games.

I've used it for gaming (both PS3 & PC) and I haven't noticed any lag. I've been playing FPS, third person shooters, platformers, etc. I've also used it with both the game mode on & off, and haven't had any issues.

I only have one game loaded on mine - we are older - 67 yrs. So games are not our forte, but the one we do play runs just fine. Sorry I was not of any more help than that.

Yeah it's from the website but it is not the most recent model available there.it is built specifically to play pc games. I use steam and origin to download a lot of games, you can get decent quality graphics without lag.

Hi.sorry.I do not play computer games. Video quality wise I can say that sometimes it "hangs" on hd YouTube videos,sometimes it's ok.I'm not if it's video or network card problem. Overall I would say it's 4/5 device for the price.

I do not know anything about the software you are asking about. I am an active gamer and this machine has taken everything I have thrown at it with ease, and I believe it will handle alot more. I play WOW and DIII on a regular basis. I hope this is some help to you.

I am by no means a computer expert, but the MMO's that I play run on the highest settings with no problem. The fans run louder, but that's not really an issue for me. I mostly play World of Warcraft and I have the best graphics of any computer I have owned with this system. Hope this was helpful.

I don't play any games, but the DVD and CD drive work very well. Caution folks....the Mac Afee Security 30 day download they give you does not work as it said I was virus free and I had caught the "Tuvaro Service.net Virus" the second day of surfing the face page on msn.com. It gave me their head page and browser and pounded me with ads I could not stop until I downloaded "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to rid it. Thats my second problem with Mac Afee Security.........worthless!!! Hope that helps everyone!!
