Do you think this Toshiba laptop will be able to handle DOW2 on medium graphics? Here are some of the specs:

-6gb RAM
-AMD Dual-core Processor A4-3300M
Clock speed : 2.3 / 1.4 GHz
Cache : 2 MB
-AMD Radeon™ HD 6480G Graphics

Price: £430

Do you know any laptops that would outperform it in this area for a similar price? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

You can get a laptop with i5 prosessor and better graphics card at the same price.

Could you point me in the right direction? I haven't been able to find any.

How about this HP: http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/packard-bell-ts11hr039-15-6-laptop-black-10783798-pdt.html? It's got an i5 processor but I have no idea how the graphics compares to the toshiba's. Is Intel HD Graphics 3000 better than the AMD Radeon™ HD 6480G Graphics?

That will most likely run it. Dual core 1.4 ghz is more than a lot of people think. I can run WH40k Space Marine on highest setting with a dual core 1.3 ghz, as well as DOW1. Though I would still look for a demo.

Dell Inspiron 15R seems to be very popular around the £500 budget. i3-2310 (2.10GHz, 3MB cache, Dual Core), 4096MB 1333MHz Dual Channel DDR3 & a GeForce GT 525M. Or you could spend £70 more for a better CPU.
