Hello Community!

D3 has been out for the last 2months and Guild Wars is being released soon. Need some advice on a laptop.

I would like to play at Ultra settings at 1920x1080 or i could go lower res (which i perfer not)

Wondering if anyone in the community has personal expereince with D3 and GW2 beta at highest possible setting with smooth gameplay and can recommend me a laptop.

My budget would be between $1200-$1500 maxed with tax in (I live in Toronto Canada).

I was thinking of:

Lenovo Y580 with GTX660M i7-3610QM (1920x1080) $1149.00 + tax (sale price) Comes with and added 1TB 5400RPM + 32GBSSD (don't know why its not a 7200)

or

Sager 9130 with GTX670M i7-3610QM (1920x1080) $1153.00 + tax Comes with 500GB 7200rpm


or

whatever you guys recommend.......

Well my friend should be giving me more information later but with his 1.7Ghz integrated graphics AMD quadcore, he can play at medium with no lag at all (he is well above 30FPS always and usually around 50fps). He is probably running at 1366 x 768 though... :(

My other friend is running just under fully maxed out and will give me his build and more details later. It is apparently more graphics intensive than he thought when he was telling me before. You may need a GTX 670M to max is out all the way according to him.
