gaming laptops around $800

[j358boy]

The best graphics card I found around $800 is GTX 860M on the Lenovo y50. I had a lenovo y580 that was i7 processor with gtx 660m graphics card, but soaked it in water. There is a i7 version of the lenovo y50, but it is $100 more expensive which I don't think i can do. Is there any other laptop that would be better for gaming around $800 and would there be a significant difference I would notice from using a lenovo y50 over fixing my lenovo y580? Thanks for your time.

Firstly if at all possible I would not invest in a gaming laptop at all, unless you're constantly wanting to game on the go it just isn't worth it for the price/performance ratio and the ability to upgrade your parts. I am speaking from personal expirence , my $1200 laptop was garbage for gaming after only 3 years. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834313742R That laptop offers an SLI for under 800 so in terms of value , that is a pretty decent deal imo.

If you're willing to spend a tiny bit of money upgrading the ram , this is a better value and more reliable than an SLI config http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834231974
