[Need Advice] Parts search to build 'gaming' laptop (~$1200-$1600)

[BottledDew]

Hi! I'm a student, and I use my computer mainly for video games and in-game recording with a recording software (causes framedrop) and also render videos (takes quite a few hours on current laptop). TL : DR This summer, I will have enough money to buy all parts in one go for a laptop build. But I don't know where to start! Please list complete parts for a whole laptop, as well as a good and nice looking barebones laptop case (along with links please!). Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you, but this is kind of narrow, like a laptop customizer. I need your opinion on parts for a personal laptop you would build and choose for this budget.

Those are barebones builds with links to different parts to buy....

Oops, did not look closely enough. I will check out the tabs, the one you sent me led to a customizer page.
