Just look for systems in your area with a 940m video card, that would get you to lower quality for new games, also the 860 and 960m for higher price. You may be with an Acer laptop for low price, but they are not as reliable as the other brands.
If you want to play on high settings in new demanding games, you need to be at about $1,400 US price range and up for a laptop.
A laptop with an 860/960 may get you to medium settings and even high in some games but you may also need to play at lower resolution, 720 instead of 1080.
