    What Gaming Laptop?

    Looking to get a top end Gaming Laptop.

    Budget is not an issue this time round and I do understand that this is going to set me back in the 2K region if what I have been looking at is anything to go on.

    I have looked at heaps of specifications of the different options out there but I am not a gamer at all. So I have no idea what combination of things will make a great gaming laptop. And this is too important a purchase to mess up. Nor am I a fanboi of any one brand, be it graphic card or anything like that. Simply want to buy the best gamer Laptop before Christmas.

    If I have posted in the wrong section my apologies I could not find a buying advice section.

    Well as long as your look at
    Atleast 8 gb of ram and an i5 to i7/ and equal doesn't make that much different
    Although make sure it's got good airflow find something you like the look of and read reviews

    The fastest mobile graphics card is the GTX680M and then the HD7970M.

    OcUK have a decent range of gaming laptops.

    However,a SFF PC would be more powerful,cheaper and easier to upgrade.

    [....] but I am not a gamer at all.
    it's great you have 2k to blow, but if you're not a gamer at all, is the outlay worth it? what sort of games are you looking to play?

    I went for a Scan gaming laptop, is a great machine and the customer service has been fantastic! I went for the 7970M as the 680M is priced crazy!
