Geesh, you guys lobby hard for desktops.

Figure out what brand you want, and then find the most gaming equipped set-up they have. That's really all there is to it. With the limited choices available, I'd say go for what you know and enjoy. Lenovo has a nice Y-series that I've seen multiple friends buy, and it's been just fine for them in anything they want to run.

First of all, please do not get an alienware. Their desktops are outright daylight robbery and their laptops are not that much better too. Razer laptops have the same problem too.

Second, ask yourself: do you really need a gaming laptop? For that amount of money you can build a top of the line desktop and a lean, mean laptop for everyday use. You are paying a lot more money per performance for laptops because of the size limitation.

If you are really dead set on a laptop, I have a few recommendations for you:

http://www.amazon.com/i7-4720HQ-nVIDIA- ... s=gtx+980m

http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-P35Xv3-i ... s=gtx+980m

The first one is from clevo, and the second one is made by gigabyte. Both are reputable companies. Both come with a gtx 980 which is equivalent to a desktop gtx 770 which performs similarly to a r9 280x. With this card maxxing out 1080p games should not be a problem.

This one is good too

CheesyRiceJust gonna ask before all the people come in mad about this, why do you need a laptop? If you just plan to use it around the house a desktop (even a really small one) will be cheaper and run games better. If you just don't want to build a desktop, that is understandable as well.

Maybe like me he has to travel alot and doesnt want to haul that big box and a screen around.

You know desktops can be the size of a xbox and the screen isn't that big of a hassle, you can just plug it up to a TV. And with the money you save, you can invest in a laptop for what ever else you need (like in a car for the web or for school).

There really isn't a reason to buy a gaming laptop vs a desktop and a laptop. You pay around 500-1000 just for the word "gaming", or for the brand name.

its still nice to have the tower, KB, and mouse in one thing, unless of corse the LT's screen is broken, like mine.

Their new fans aren't that loud,. and mine works great.

Its True That AlienWare Fan Is Loud and they over hear very fast , i would recommend Razer Gaming Laptops ,
specially the Razer Blade Pro : http://www.razerzone.com/ca-en/store/razer-blade-pro
