Searching for gaming laptop

[Trinimini]

Hi everyone, I apologize if this isn't the right place to ask, but I hope I can still get some help here. After what feels like waiting for an eternity for Apple to release its line of MacBook Pros with Skylake processors, I've decided to get a gaming laptop instead. Unfortunately, I've been overwhelmed by the number of gaming laptops out there, and was hoping I could get specific suggestions to narrow down my search. Below is a list of what I'm looking for:

- Skylake processor
- PCIe SSD
- 16GB RAM or more
- Thunderbolt 3 (or USB Type-C)
- HDMI 2.0 (This might just be me being greedy; I doubt I really would take advantage of it)
- 14-15.6"
- Lighter the better
- Longer battery life the better (for casual non-gaming use)

Anything sub-$3000 is fair game. Your suggestions don't have to meet every criteria above exactly, but the closer it is, the better. If more information is required, I'll be happy to provide it.

Thanks in advance.

Hmm the Razer one looks nice. Any idea if the SSD uses all 4 lanes or only 2? (I really hope I'm using the correct lingo here lol)
