Looking for a gaming laptop that isn't horrendously expensive.

I have a budget of up to around £700-800, I am looking to buy a laptop that will last me through university (4 years) and that I can use to play games (games like dark souls 3 etc).

Since it will be used at uni, it will be moved around a fair amount, so one that has reliable hinges would be good. (but this point is secondary to performance).

Thanks a lot for any recommendations. :)

There is actually a good amount of laptops under 800 Euros ($900) (sorry I'm from the us:D)
many with good build quality(aluminium body) and good performance
Here are a couple to check out.

Lenovo y700
aluminium body
8gbs ram
1tb hard drive (you can upgrade to an ssd if you want/know how to)
Nvidia GTX 960m
I7-6700HQ
$860

Alienware 13
I know alienware is not the best price to performance laptop but they are very well built and will last a while
I5-5200U
8gb ram
1tb Hdd
GTX 960m
$950

Also you could check out Ebay for a used laptop.
Hope I could help, and good luck in University :D
