Howdy all,

I did post before but really could use some advise, I am moving home and need to ditch my dining room being a gaming room.

What are the best gaming laptops out there today, i see some being mentioned of with a kind of mobile graphics card.... ?

I have a good budget of around 1500- 2k inc vat, I need to order something shortly and am very clueless in this area.

What sort of thing should i be aiming for? is Alienware a load of toot?

cheers
 
Well sadly my desktop is around 5 months old,

Z97X mboard
I7 4790 chip
GTX 970 4gb graphics
16 gb ram Kington Hypex PC3 2400mhz
250gb evo 840 ssd
Corsair Hydro 105 water cooled



lots of other bits, but the new house just hasn't the space for my "setup" and tbh i would rather a laptop, fresh start and all, i spend to much time sat in front of this desk... So I thought sell up and put the cash towards a laptop, i dont evne play games often but i do sometimes so will just plug into the TV for a screen and I think that will suit me and may actually prompt me into games more
 
hmmm, i have a surface pro 3 i7 8gb ram etc.. maybe that would have to suffice while i look at options.. or maybe il just buy a regular laptop for a while,

my thoughts were, laptop at tv if needs be, can sit at dining room table if and when required so laptop ok.... and if i feel a bit of me time i can still have an amp and speakers in the dining room for me to connect to and mess about with when needed
 
If you have the MS Surface Pro 3, that is a laptop effectively (assuming you have the keyboard cover), so would cover all laptop needs, no?

Then use a desktop for gaming...

I do have the keyboard cover but its not "quite" a laptop to touch and its a bit frustrating at times but i suppose i could live with it.....

we move in a few weeks and the idea is to have the dining rooms as a proper dining room and my gaming pc etc will have no home.... i may just park it all for a few weeks and see how we get on.
