Hello, so I'm on the hunt for a new gaming laptop that will be able to run games at 60 FPS with fairly high graphical settings, at a cost of about $1250. I have been looking at MSI on Amazon (Link here: https://www.amazon.com/GE62-15-6-inch-Notebook-i7-6700HQ-Computer/dp/B0161XPY50/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1467389479&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=gaming+laptop&psc=1) I have read reviews on it and this laptop seems pretty solid for gaming and other essentials you would need for a laptop, but is this a good gaming computer, or is there any other laptops like ASUS that I could find at a $1250 price range that could potentially beat this laptop.
Thank you for the feedback!

A 960m will not run many new games at 60fps on high, if that is what you really want, you need to get a 980m which is about $1,600. Maybe 970m depending on the game and resolution.

Remember the laptop you get now is what you will be using in 2-3-4 years, a system that will barely do what you want today, will not be able to handler the newer games in a few years without dropping settings and getting lower FPS.

There are several systems with a 970M video card around $1,200 http://www.xoticpc.com/custom-gaming-laptops-notebooks-gaming-laptops-ct-118-96-98.html#!/p=2
