Hey mate,

That's really going to depend on your price range. If you're willing to spend a couple grand on a gaming laptop, hit up the Alienware or Dell XPS range. They're probably the best mainstream brands for gaming. If you're looking for something a little cheaper, you'd be best off going for a desktop, because you simply won't find the desired specifications for much cheaper.

I actually find that my Acer Aspire 5742 can handle most things on reasonable settings and was only like £600, however, you might as well get a desktop, same price but 100x more powerful

It really depends on your price range, how portable you need it to be, and what type of games you plan on playing. If you give a bit more information, picking one out will be heaps easier.

Yeah i suppose, for example most $500 laptos will run minecraft and COD4 which technically could be considered gaming but if you're wanting to play skyrim and battlefield 3 you're gonna have to spend like $900-$1500
