1000 Euros eh? That should get you a very nice laptop suitable for your academic + gaming needs.
Look for:
- Great graphics/video card. (FYI: My current Toshiba Satellite laptop has a NVidia graphics card, which is pretty nice for gaming). This item will likely be a priority of yours since you do play LoL (and other games) often.
- Decent HDD capacity. IIRC, laptops nowadays have over 500 GB in HDD capacity nowadays.
- Great processors. Somewhat important for you due to the activities you do on your laptop. Quad core processors are likely the standard in laptop nowadays.
- 6-8GB RAM
- Good screen
Overall, try to get as many desired specs on your laptop for a bargain price. That's what I did for the laptop I'm currently using (4GB RAM DDR3, Intel Core 2 duo core processor, 400GB HDD, and NVidia GeForce GT 230M Graphics card all for $700 USD back in January 2009), and I was pleasantly satisfied with it. Shop around a lot, take a look at a lot of selections, and compare them. This laptop will last you for a good 4-5 years if you get one loaded with nice specs on it, so make this purchase count.
