Suggestions for a Gaming Laptop?

Hey guys,

I need a gaming laptop. I have no idea what to get. I was thinking Alienware, but that seems a little expensive. Any suggestions? Cheers

Does it absolutely have to be a laptop?

After looking around this sager 15.6" laptop looks like a fantastic buy better then the base m14x same gpu and cpu but superior screen resolution and size and more ram and almost $230 cheaper you can customize to add quad core i7 ivy bridge for only $70 more and just as good as the higher end m14x configuration for way less money and you get a bigger higher quality 1080p screen as well!

dont be an idiot.

dont buy a gaming laptop.

there is no such thing.

gaming is about the experience. so

a: you need to be able to concentrate on it.

b: you need a large screen

c: you need to be comfortable

d: you need good sound

e: you need good mouse and keyboard

f: you want something powerful and the more fluid a game can be the more enjoyment you will get

d: your system needs to be able to disperse heat, something all laptops have a problem with. especially after 6 months of dust

and then, if you dont care about all of that, please consider:

a:everything in your laptop has a lifespan of 2 years, after which your money is completely wasted. as you wont be able to upgrade sufficiently.

b: the case you pay for in a laptop gets thrown away

c: the keyboard gets thrown away

d: the touch pad gets thrown away

e: the motherboard gets thrown away

f: the power supply gets thrown away

g: the monitor gets thrown away

h: cpu thrown away

i: ram thrown away

j: hard drives, thrown away

k: cd/dvd drives thrown away

with a desktop, when things are a little out of date, you can keep almost all of these components and just buy a new motherboard, or cpu, or graphics card etc. making desktops better for the world and better for your pocket.

also consider

a: laptop is easy to steal

b: a gaming laptop will be targeted especially to steal

c: you will look like a nerdy rich kid

have i talked you out of it yet??

can someone STICKY THIS POST please?? because every day there is someone asking about a "gaming laptop", and another person crying that their new "gaming laptop" performs like crap, overheats, was a waste of money. it really annoys me and ever gamer/techie really knows that gaming laptops are overpriced peices of crap that no one should be looking at buying.

thanks
