I need to know what is the best gaming laptop available in the USA to play 3D games. It would be very helpful for me if you guys recommend me a laptop I could buy for less than 1500 dollars. Please mention the exact name of the laptop, specifications and any link if possible.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
I think it's still a case of the best laptop for gaming is a desktop.
You still get more bang for your buck with a desktop....so just get a bigger lap....;)
I've had the ASUS G50vt gaming laptop for 7 months now and it runs the latest games perfectly. I got it for only $899 at Best Buy. Here's a linky:
That link shows a refurbished model so not sure if the brand new ones are still available.
Cobra's suggestion looks like it's a bit better laptop but much more pricey. If you've got the money maybe go with the Alienware.
Jafo that isn't at all clear anymore. There are boutique manufacturers that can pretty much build a desktop equivalent in a laptop form factor. With pretty much all the bells and whistles of a desktop as well. To wit:
- Core I7 Extreme 975 3.33 GHz processor
- 12 GB RAM
- 17" 1920x1200 display
- GeForce GTX 280M 1GB video
- 802.11n networking
- Raid 0 or 1 with up to 3 320 GB HD and/or 256GB SSD in any combination
- 8x DVD RW
- Vista 64 bit (or Windows 7 when it comes out)
I think most anyone would be pretty happy with that. It isn't cheap, but if you have to carry your gaming rig in a small bag with you to frag at 30,000 feet, it can be done. (Above system would set you back a bit over 5 grand and includes a custom painted laptop case in any color you want. See the Falcon Northwest web site for more details.)
I will agree however that desktop still rules the roost when it comes to price/performance by a country mile!
