First, will you explain why you want a gaming laptop? Aemon Send a noteboard - 25/04/2011 10:17:22 PM
I ask because buying two machines (a gaming desktop, and a low-end laptop) is usually the better way to go. For $500-$700, you can build a desktop system that will beat the pants off any $1000 laptop, and still have money left over for a netbook/tablet/low-end laptop. If you get a desktop (particularly if you build your own), you also get redundancy, reliability, upgradeable and brand name components, etc.

Unless you absolutely must game while on the go, I'd strongly recommend building a desktop, and buying a low-end laptop for mobile internet/word processing.

some of us just don't want a desktop - 26/04/2011 07:33:05 AM 549 Views
Which is fair enough, I just think it's an unusual viewpoint. - 26/04/2011 06:14:58 PM 523 Views
I'm special. I effectively tank with a touch pad. - 26/04/2011 11:24:17 PM 515 Views
Ah, you're one of THOSE tanks. On behalf of WoW players everywhere, I hate you. - 26/04/2011 11:34:06 PM 511 Views
What do you mean I'm one of THOSE tanks? I don't key-turn! - 27/04/2011 06:40:54 PM 489 Views

Forgot to mention - 26/04/2011 07:17:58 PM 510 Views
Definitely worth mentioning, but there's always something better just a couple months down the road. *NM* - 26/04/2011 07:39:33 PM 257 Views
Less than 3 months is very different than 1 year later - 26/04/2011 08:06:34 PM 555 Views
True enough. - 26/04/2011 08:49:07 PM 525 Views
