Gaming laptop recommendations

[DynosaurDollie]

Okay dear gamers, I was aiming for a PS4 for my upcoming birthday, however mobility issues have made such an idea unrealistic.. and space limitations make a desktop not an option. So that brings me too this.. the laptop. While I have been an avid gamer for years, I know very little about laptops in general, well okay computers in general but I am a very quick learner thankfully. What is in your opinion a good idea for a games only laptop, must haves, things to avoid etc.. I have a few months and want to pick just the right system.

If it makes any difference I am really into RPG's more than anything else.

Anything Asus is your best bet. Always go for a dedicated GPU when it comes to gaming standards, and try to get at least 4-8GB of ram. I'd need to know your price range to make any kind of recommendation.

This thread is all about recommendations.

I also made a post here with more information.

The lenovo is a great option for a gaming laptop , I've had one now for about a year and love it

The thing that have turns me off from investing into a gaming laptop is the fact it's always changing and upgrading quickly leaving older gaming computers to be outdated. The Xbox 360 got like nearly 10 years before the Xbox One came out. Anyways, I don't know much about buying gaming laptops, but I can recommend some Steam games.

- Dead Realm (scary and suspenseful hide and seek game)
- Garry's Mod (sandbox game that pretty much let's you have fun with weapons, ragdolls, and maps from other games as well as a ton of custom game modes/content available by players)
- Team Fortress 2 (very popular free first person shooter)
- Chivalry: Medieval Warfare (kind of like Skyrim battling without magic spells and such)
- Skyrim (obviously this game is on a ton of systems, but the PC version has a variety of mods to use to enhance your experience)
- Warframe (free to play game with really fun combat and great weapon variety)
- Amnesia: Dark Descent (one of the best horror/suspense games on Steam)
- The Forest (I haven't played this myself, but heard really good things about it. It's a survival game.)
