Heavy Gaming Laptop Under 1,100

[CraftedElements]

Hello TomsHardware community, I'm currently looking for a gaming laptop that is able to play games such as BF4, GW2 and Cod Ghosts. Battery life doesn't matter to me as it will be plugged in 99% of the time. I don't care about any cosmetic features, I don't care how heavyor big it is, I don't care about heat unless it could be a problem. I'm looking for a machine with the best performance for the money. I'm looking to spend no more than 1,100$ and have an i7 preferably not an i5.


The laptop that I'm currently looking into is the Lenovo Y510p however i'm reluctant to buy it because of issues with SLI, and micro stuttering problems. Also the minute you google Y510p 755m SLI all you get is threads and error reports about the laptop. I was looking at this model specifically http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834313740

I'm open to any other options (USA

the MSI Computer Corp. GP60 LEOPARD-009 15.6-Inch Laptop is much better http/www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IQ4DKMM/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00IQ4DKMM&linkCode=as2&tag=thpcgaha-20&linkId=HACWI5DNDCL6MUCJ

Sorry, but the 840 isn't really enough to cut it

Don't listen to anything he says. He's just an idiot that spams random links. He has no idea what he's talking about.

I figured. By chance do you have any recommendations?

The GTX 860M in the Lenovo Y50 is miles better when compared to the GT 840M in the MSI GP60.

Do people really have nothing better to do?

I'm still looking for other options Unless the Y50 is a shoo in

It's really the best solution within budget. Unless you want to prioritize a little better build quality and a much nicer display, in which case you can get an ASUS N550JK. It also comes with an optical drive if that is important to you.

The optical drive is not important, nor is the touch screen aspect. I basically want the best performance, I would get a Desktop, but I'm not in a place were I could have one (personal issues) so if it's huge and bulky,but is a beast at gaming, I'll take it

I've seen some MSI and ROG laptops that might work, any opinions/recommendations?
