The first link is to a gaming laptop, designed to run games - it has a dedicated graphics card instead of using a dedicated part of the CPU for graphics, which makes it much more capable for gaming for a number of reasons.

The other two links below it are using CPU graphics, which allows use of 3D applications like games, but at far lower performance than a dedicated card/GPU.

If you are looking to get into gaming, and you can only buy a laptop, then get a gaming laptop. If budget is your biggest concern and you cannot afford to get into a gaming laptop, then you can settle for one of the other two options albeit with lowered in-game settings, potential throttling in extended use, and overall decreased average FPS throughout.

If you are looking to buy a gaming laptop, you might do well to look up more than one offering, too, depending on what is available to you. We are entering into Summer Sale territory, so system integrators like Xidax or CyberPower, etc., will be dropping some serious sales (likely in June/July) on many of their offerings, especially those they are trying to phase out like previous gen gear.

Best wishes and good luck - remember the saying, "research pays off" ... otherwise the other saying kicks in: "a fool and his money are soon parted"

Any with good singlethread CPU performance
4+ threads(pr 2 threads + prlauncher + spare)
Preferably non-integrated GPU
