1269659 2012-04-13 04:49:00 My idea of a good gaming laptop is

i7 cpu
8GBG ram
6990m 2GB video chipset
2TB 7200rpm HD
Whatever size screen suits

price....approx $1600-$2200 NZD

That's ok because that can fit into a laptop without being retarded and still run basically everything.

1269662 2012-04-14 00:50:00 You'll never be able to upgrade anything realistically. Mobo will be limited to 32gb of ram (which is total overkill anyway). Graphics *might* be interchangeable (doubtful) and you probably wont ever come across a *better* graphics chip. Name brand computer so CPU is probably soldered in, you could upgrade the HDD I guess. icow (15313)
1269663 2012-04-14 01:17:00 if your gonna get the upgraded HDD option then dont just buy your own HDD and put it in it will be waaaaaaaay cheaper. Slankydudl (16687)

1269668 2012-04-14 21:41:00 You will be paying even more for an ivy bridge but price dosen't worry you. ChazTheGeek (16619)
