Mid-Range gaming Laptop Under $800

Hi there, I'm in the market for a laptop for school and want to do some casual gaming from steam, possibly some MMO's like SWTOR. I'm not looking for a laptop to play on all high setings, I have a desktop for that. Just something where the FPS wont be crap.

Dealbreakers:
MUST be Windows 7
at least 1600x900 resolution
dedicated graphics card
decent battery life (hopefully ~6 hours)

CPU wise, I know a quad core is probably the way to go but it has been quite the quest to find an i7 with a decent price, so an AMD quad core cpu is fine with me.
Thank you for your insight.

You may be hard pressed for $800.00 or less. You can try the Asus N56 series with an A10 processor. My friend runs far cry 3 on medium with it.

Thanks for the tip, actually found some on amazon with an i7 at $750. I had looked for a similar model before but not the whole series and it helped to broaden the search.
