The Gateway P-6831FX looks almost identical to the P-171XL FX Edition except for one obvious difference: the lower price. Nevertheless, even at half the price, the reviewer stated that it's a solid option for gamers on a tight budget. By simply looking at the overall design of the P-6831FX, it's quite easy to see that Gateway has gamers in mind. With a huge amount of ports that you can use, you can easily expand your gaming level by hooking up your laptop to an HDTV or getting another eSATA external drive. The P-6831FX performed well in benchmarks and even during actual game play. The reviewer also noted that the P-6831FX's performance rivaled even notebooks worth hundreds of dollars more. However, productivity-wise, the reviewer stated that the P-6831FX operated in the slow side. If you are looking for a gaming rig but you're operating on a limited budget, the reviewer found the P-6831FX to be one of the best options in terms of price and performance.
