I don't need the best, and I'm looking for a gaming laptop with price in mind. A lot of people say that Asus W90 is better but M15x looks really good as well, but I'm wondering if I picked M15x would it really be THAT bad?

What sort of specifications were you looking to get, and how much were you planning to spend?

ASUS can be great for the money, but the W90 is a bit aged now compared to newer models offered today.

Alienware is also nice, but they are quite pricey, and more for the people who want the bragging rights (in my opinion).

If you can wait about 1 month or so I would look into the Asus G73JH-A2. For less than $1700.00 US you get full HD, 17" screen, 8 GIG ram, ATI 1 GIG Vram, DX11 support, state of the art cooling , Intel Core I7, etc. The only downside I have read about is limited real world battery life (1-1.5 hours). I preorded one on Feb 6 of this year and am anxiously awaiting it arrival. Good luck with whatever you purchase!
