It would be better if you provided a budget for us to work with. However, if you want both gaming and editing/rendering performance, then a laptop with a quad-core i7 CPU and a dedicated graphics card may be extremely helpful.
This laptop comes with a quad-core i7 CPU and a competent GTX 950M graphics card, which will play just about any modern game, though not necessarily at maximum graphics settings. It also has a 120GB SSD along with a 1TB hard drive.
