Hello!
I am looking for a laptop that will primarily be used for gaming (call of duty, minecraft, gta, sims 4) but also sometimes for watching movies (not the main use). Ideally it would be under £800 but the budget can be stretched to £1000. My current laptop's processor is intel core i3, so for my new laptop i7 would be preferred. I'd also like 16GB RAM but 8GB is fine also.
Please reply on this thread if you have any suggestions. Thankyou!

Preferably 15inch screen, at least one USB port and a disk drive is not important :)

Probably what I would have suggested as well, you typically will not find these specs at this price point although I find Lenovo does a great job of packing nice features and build quality into an affordable unit.

Currently typing from a Lenovo Ideapad 720s, and my brother has the Y520.

I know that my father had a Lenovo thinkpad and it worked beautifully for him. Now that Lenovo is going into the gaming business, they probably have released some good products, in this case, what I recommended. But, if you want to go on the lower end, I held off the 1060 to a 1050 Ti and everything else seems similar, but this time it’s from msi. https://www.newegg.com/global/uk/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834154621
