It'll run the game.  As you say won't be the quickest (but at the same time it's not going to be awful), but it does look to me to be about the best you'll get at the price point.

Thanks for the input.  I'm going to go for this one instead because a friend sent me discount code to get it for £419:

This is at the limit of my budget.  I accept its not going to be the quickest, and I'm not too fussed about graphic quality.  Am I likely to find anything better at this price point? Or similar at a cheaper price?

I'm currently still on FM20 (may upgrade to FM21, but not necessarily): I tend to play only England as active leagues down to National North/South, I would like the option to extend this out a bit, but not essential.

I was looking at the HP one, but was unsure as it doesn’t have a graphics card 

I think Currys just omitted that piece of info.  According to HP's own site it has integrated AMD Graphics (which I presume is sufficient for FM)

I'm looking at getting a new lap top as my seven year old Lenovo is on its last legs.  I play FM20 currently (may move up to FM21 at some point, but maybe not), normally with only one nation (England) and seven leagues (i.e. down to National North/South), but would like the option to potentially expand this out a bit.  I'm not too fussed about the quality of the graphics.  I don’t play other games, so main other uses are browsing, music and Netflix etc while we're away.

I can't justify a big budget due to the reduced usage/game play these days (pesky kids), so I accept that I'll end up with a slower than average game speed.

How do these two compare?  A friend recommended the first, but the processor ranks really low on the comparison site.  Is the extra £100+ justified for the second one?

Good work guys. I've just returned to the forums for the first time in about two years. I can't believe this thread is still going!
