portable laptop for gaming under $1,500

[Shmanega]

I am looking for a computer with above Nvidia 700 and that is below 4.7 lbs and is not bulky. screen size below 15.8 inches. I do not like ASUS so please don't answer with an Asus laptop. Other specs on the laptop would be a good processor, and a harddrive that is upgradable to SSD, with a hard drive with at least 500 GB unless it is upgradable to that size. I will only use the laptop for casual gaming like civilization V, total war, and NBA 2k. and a backlight keyboard

My preferences in order are Reliability, weight/ bulkiness, Graphics card, processor.

Thanks
