I am buying a new laptop next month and i am wanting to play some games while on the move so i am wanting a laptop which can handle games like 'dead space, left for dead, COD5' ect.
I am will to spend around £1500 on a new laptop.
The Toshiba Qosmio X300-148 is the laptop which stands out to me at the moment but if anyone has some recommendations they would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome.
I'm looking at the new MSI offerings. Not as much money as you want to spend but look quite good.

The MSI laptops are pretty good, I am typing on the gx620 at the moment the overclocked p8400 and 9600m gt (ddr3) did supprise me and is a very capable little card it plays l4d, css, dead space and other games very well. I think I paid just shy of £1000 for it (warning: if you do go msi, rip the two back rubber feet off and stick them back on with some superglue, mine fell of within the first few days and were a nightmare to find).

If you want to spend up to 1500 you can spec up a 9800 laptop from overclockers for around £1400

Thanks for the replys.

I have looked at a few MSI laptops and they seem pretty good. I see there is a new model coming out the GT725. Has anyone got an idea when it will be available?

Thanks

Its always a problem with new MSI gaming laptops in that the secrecy surrounding them would do justice to the Kremlin! Was a time when OCUk sold them.
Cant mention names (competitors).

How about the 15" Overclockers laptop that has the 9800M GTS? It's a hell of a quick GPU.
