I was thinking about getting the sager np8130 but I don't know if it will be able to play games like crysis 2, rift, cod black ops, all on ultra high settings without lag. I will post some of the specs below.

15.6 FHD 1920x1080

1.5gb nvidia geforce gtx 460m ddr5 dx11

2nd gen i7 2630qm 2.0-2.9ghz

8gb ddr3 ram

Will this be able to run these games with at least 25 frames or more with these specs?
 
Hello b-dub92;

Probably not. The laptop GTX 460M is roughly equivalent to a desktop GTS 450 graphics card.

Still, the Sager NP8130 @ ~$1200 is about the best performance you'll get in that price range.
 
Solution
Also my friend has an alienware desktop with a gtx 260m and it can run rift on ultra with no problems, he's got a i7 740 processor and 8gb of ram
 
It should do most of the games you mention on High settings.
You can probably test running on Ultra - but for playable frame rates you'll probably need to turn down the graphics quality a bit.
