Looking for best option for gaming laptop around $700-$800

[wirf]

The kicker is that it needs to be able to be bought from Best Buy. I would like to be able to play most games currently out and coming out soon, it does not have to be at best settings though. Also, I need to be able to do some work with web editing/design work. Any input would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

A real gaming laptop with good performance and great cooling system.

+1 you're probably not going to be able to beat that without going over $1000

Thank you for the responses. Is it worth it to wait for a newer version in the next couple months for the Haswell line to come out?

Nope. Haswell stuffs will be overpriced at first. Plus there is a deal on the G46 right now. Normally it costs ~1k USD.

the Lenovo y410p does due to fact the graphics card is better and you can add an extra fan, graphics car or a extra hard rive

I couldnt find a best buy link but, I've found a great laptop from Lenovo that I'm planning on purchasing soon. If others have already mentioned this one, I apologize.
Here's the link, http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/y-series/y410p/
The starting price is around 1,299 but they always have weekly E-Coupons that bring the price down to below 800 bucks.
Its got a 4th Gen i7 - 2.4 GHz, GeForce 755m (2GB Memory), 8GB RAM, and a 1TB HDD(optional SSD i believe)
Its a great deal for a pretty dang good laptop. Good luck!
