Thanks:

Core i7-2760QM 2.40GHz CPU is good.
NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M 1GB Video card is not-so-good if you're talking about maxing out Diablo III. NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M review

I think this is an example of too much CPU and not enough GPU.

Is your budget right around $1129?

Are you hearing anything like Diablo III has hardware requirements somewhat similar to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and StarCraft II?

Sager NP6165 @ XoticPC ~$1049
Core i7-2670QM 2.2Ghz CPU, 8GB RAM, 750GB 7200rpm HDD, 15.6" 1920x1080 LCD w/ Nvidia GeForce GT 650M graphics card.

NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M preview
Performance should be between the GeForce GTX 460M and GTX 560M.

Yeah, they're suggesting Desktop video cards in the GeForce 260 or ATI Radeon HD 4870 or better category.

That's well above the GT 630M/GT 540M laptop cards that are a bit less than a desktop Radeon HD 5570.

GT 650M / GTX 460M is a lot closer just about 15% under a desktop Radeon HD 4850.

My guess is that GT 630M/GT 540M would run on Medium graphics at reduced resolutions (not Medium @ 1920x1080).

Also guessing that GT 650M has a good chance to play on High Graphics settings, maybe needing a lower resolution than 1920x1080.

And that's based on Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and StarCraft II performance with a GTX 560M
