Cheapest Laptop for Gaming and College (Prebuilt with add ons)

[Agent3]

Hi, since I just entered college, I have to get a laptop since im in IT and doing programming and app development and stuff. Im also into causual gaming.
So basically im looking for reasonable choices.


Specs:
Cpu: i7 3rd gen quad
Gpu: mid range dedicated plus integrated intel 4000
Screen: 14inch (1600*900) decent, not necessarily ips or high end
Speakers: decent, usually okay with any.
Build quality: decent

Lenovo ThinkPad (T-Series) are really good.

Budget ? Size ?

I have bought a bunch of these ....

http/www.lpc-digital.com/sager-np9150.html

15.6” Full HD 16:9 LED-Backlit Super Clear Gloss type (or Matte for + $30)
GTX 670MX 3GB GDDR5 Memory (675 MX for + $100)
i7-3630QM Processor
Buy OS on campus ... typically $10 - $25
8GB Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1600MHz - 2 X 4GB (16 GB for + $70)
750GB 7200rpm SATA 300 Hard Drive (750 GB Momentus Hybrid SSD / HD for + $90)
8X DVD±R/RW/4X +DL Super-Multi Drive (BR Player for + $55)
Integrated 802.11 b/g/n wireless LAN + Bluetooth
8 cells smart Lithium-Ion battery pack 76.96Wh
Integrated Fingerprint Reader
Free Shipping

That is $1,269 in options. Add $81 in options and ya get an extra $50 iscount. Of all the above, I'd recommend the Moments strongest, I have one model; with an SSD + HD and another w/ the Moments and unless ya use a benchmark, the performance is indistinguishable. That total would be $1,309

Hi, can you explain in what aspects is it good? Because I feel its overpriced specs wise. I just need decent build quality and wouldnt want to pay more for" ultrabook" or" bussiness" functions.

I just got an Ideapad Y500 with Dual GT 750m, 16 SSD 500 HD from Lenovo, good deal I thought $1150.

They have other models with a single GT750m if you want to save $$, they are all on sale now.
