[SOLVED] Help picking out a decent gaming laptop

[sakaruu]

I need something mobile for working and for gaming as I am bed bound a lot from being sick and have to travel a lot as well. I want something that I can play games on high and will last be 5 + years.

I am willing to spend like a grand, but hoping to go around 800$ range and that itll drop down a good price for black friday. These are some of the laptops I was looking at. Hoping you guys can help me make a better decision on which ones I should be looking out for deal wise.

the MSI in your second link and the Asus in the final link look like the best options. The first link is no good, no graphics card so it's using the intel graphics which are terrible for gaming.

What you want to look for is a fast CPU clock speed with 4 cores or more, at least 8GB of RAM but preferably 16GB, Dedicated graphics hardware such as 1050ti, 1060, 1070 (the higher the number the better and ti is faster than non ti)

The 1050ti is good enough for medium on most games and high/ultra on older or less demanding games. It plays pretty well but is a compromise for price. Decent gaming Laptops do not come cheap so you may have to reduce quality on some more demanding titles but on a screen that size they should still look ok.
