Need A New Gaming Laptop

[GaaraTenno]

Hello everyone! I'm in need of a new gaming laptop and I don't know much about laptop gpu's and cpu's so I figured I'd come over here for some help. The game I mainly play at the moment is World of Warcraft so I'd just prefer a laptop that could max out the display settings for that. Some of the websites I've been checking out for laptops are http/www.digitalstormonline.com/gaming-laptops.asp, http/www.cyberpowerpc.com/category/notebook/, and http/www.ibuypower.com/Site/Gaming-Laptop. Doesn't have to be from one of those sites but those are the three I'm familiar with. Thanks in advance for the help 😀
Budget: Prefer under $1700

I'd be looking at a Sager NP 8278 S

With GTX 970m, 256Gb SSD and 1Tb HDD, Windows 8.1 and same processor, 17.3" screen, dual fans for heat management. This comes to about $1700. This is about 25% better GPU than the M290X

I would say DonkeyOatie is the best you can find. With the websites you have given me the max I could find is a gtx 870m. If anyone knows a better one, correct me.

The older version of the Sager NP8278-S had a GTx880m option. You can get a GTX980m as well, but not in your budget. You you have the coin, for about $2000 there is an option in the NP9377 for two SLI GTX970m or for $2500, two SLI GTX980m !!!!!!!

There are cheaper options if you want only a 15.6" screen.

xoticpc.com is one of many custom laptop sites where you can customize/design your own. If i were not building my own small desktop, I'd be buying a Sager NP8278-s (or an MSI gaming all-in-one)
