Laptop reccomendations

[Bromen]

Im looking to buy a laptop, looking for something that can run World of Warcraft/Eve online fairly easilly, I want about 100gb of hard drive space on it.

Im looking to spent around £500-650, unless I cant get anything that will be powerful enough to run what I need then I will up how much I am willing to spend.

Basically im just looking to see if anyone already has a laptop that can run any of these games fine that is priced around what I said, or if anyone knows of any laptops.

I have an acer laptop with nearly the exact same specs and it seems to run fine. This is a fairly decent price too.
