I just recently bought a new laptop and have 7 days to return (4 days left). I'd like to game with it and it seems alright but I'm just not sure if the price I paid is good/decent for the specs. The games I usually play is League of Legends and World of Warcraft but because of my old computers not having that great of specs, I haven't tried other PC games (such as counter strike but I want to.

It cost me $1300 for the following:
- CPU: Intel Core i7-4710HQ @ 2.50 GHz, Quad core
- RAM: 8 GB DDR3L 1600MHz
- HDD: 1 TB 7200rpm
- Screen: 15.6 Full HD (1920 x 1080)
- Graphics: Discrete NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 850M w/ 2 GB
- Weight: 1.98 kg (4.36 lbs) w/ Battery

Or suggestions please!
1. What is your budget? $1500 max
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering? Preferably 15.6
3. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop? Portable gaming laptop
4. How much battery life do you need? Minimum of 2 hours
5. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? Sometimes photo editing
6. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need? At least 512 MB

Thanks!

Thanks Captainzach for the suggestion! That does look like a better and cheaper laptop but its quite a bit heavier. Still a good alternative but got any other suggestion that is a bit lighter?

So around 4-5 lbs is where you prefer the weight to be at?

Preferably, I might be willing up to low/mid 5 lbs. I'll take a look at the one you suggested in store tomorrow but would like to look at any other alternatives as well. Thanks!
