    Practical Gaming laptop for a student on a budget

    Like I mentioned before, this would be my dream laptop...Slim, light, powerful, but it all comes in at a price that is waaaaaaaay over my budget of $1,500.

    Practical Gaming laptop for a student on a budget

    Practical Gaming laptop for a student on a budget

    TL;DR I want a mildly compact laptop with no larger than a 15.6 inch display, 4th or preferably 5th gen i7 CPU for multitasking, no less than an nVidia 960m GPU, the ability to expand storage and memory if needed, decent build quality able to withstand everyday usage, and around $1,500...
