Higher end games like Witcher 3 you will not likely get to smooth play on high settings in your budget, but your lower resolution will help them run at Medium not too bad. That Acer 960m laptop is likely the best one in your budget. Acer is a lower end maker, their laptops will be cheaper than most. Dell, MSI, Gigabyte, Lenovo, etc.. will cost more for the same specs. They will be more reliable though, Acer is often in the lower half of reliability ratings.
