The first one is the best choice for SH5, although at that prize you could build a monster desktop, way, way better than any of those laptops.

Good point but the game is being created in months past with present day/past hardward. In other words, UBI is not using a Gforce 1 Million 5000MB card because they do not have one. The are using the hardware available today. There is no mention that players will need a video card that has yet to be created. The game will probably run just fine on a 512mb. I agree with making a desktop because expanding can be done.

Buy the 900 euro 1GB laptop.

That way you won't be back here later crying you can't play what YOU want.

Upgradeing a laptop later isn't cheap.
