Is this a good price for this laptop?

[tehzbeef]

I am generally PC builder but my lifestyle has changed so I would like to switch to a more portable platform. Is this a decent price for these specs? Can anyone recommend a better system/price? http://www.ncix.com/detail/msi-gt60-dominator-i7-4710mq-92-102704.htm

I am in Canada by the way.

I would say it is a good buy. I am not sure how good msi is as I have never used one but the new gpu should make a good impact on noise and heat. You could go with an asus laptop. I would go with one of their rog laptops. Barebones laptops are also a good alternative. If you give me a budget and the websites you use and they type of games you play, I can try and find the laptop for you.

I am looking to pay a max of $1800 but would prefer to keep it much cheaper. I want something that can handle most new games at full graphics if possible, too.

Edit: Thanks for helping me out!

You could either go for an asus rog laptop as a new model came out a few weeks ago. Or the lenovo y50. The other option is to go with a barebones laptop. They tend to be cheaper and more maintainable.
