best gaming laptop computer under 1000 image

Kyle Knuts

I wish to play Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. I am a huge Fallout fan and playing it on a computer in general is so much better. Please help I need a good gaming laptop for under $1000 dollars.

Checkout Lenovo Ideapad Y570 08626AU 15.6-Inch Laptop

Specs:
- Intel Core i7 2670QM Processor
- 8GB RAM
- 1TB Hard Drive
- NVIDIA Geforce GT555M Discrete Graphics card
- Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Open http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-555M.41933.0.html
and scroll down to 'Game Benchmarks'. You can see it can play Skyrim, MW3, Battlefield 3, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Need for Speed Shift, Dirt 3, etc.

How do you tell if a graphics card is good by it's name?

Simple question, looking for a gaming laptop under 1000 and a graphics card is my first priority. If you know of any good laptops too post them here

Thanks
I don't necessarily "need" one, but my current laptop is also not at my desk all day either. It is also very nice on trips and friends' houses.

(typoed 8-9=high end, not 7-8, but i guess nvidia 7-8=high end, for amd its 8-9)


For your price range look for:

core i7 3xxx Qm (3rd generation core i7)
8GB of ram (more doesnt really help at all)
nvidia GT 650m grahics card (the gddr5 version is equal in performance to the gtx560m)

and really at this price point you either want a 1600x900 or 1920x1080 resolution screen.


http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834215410 (cheaper, 17.3", 1600x900 resolution, GDDR3 GT650m, only 5400rpm hdd, 7.05 lbs)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152339 (amazing gaming laptop for the price. 1920x1080, 15.6", GDDR5 GT650m, 750GB 7200rpm hdd, nice keyboard, speakers, looks awesome only 5.28 lbs.) But being light, might also make it more fragile, so dropping it like a tard may cause more damage the heavier ones.

There is a $100 mail in rebate on that too.


EDIT: @alienware
you are out of your mind if you think they make the best gaming computers...

its $1100
and compared to msi above

-dual core i5, compared to quad core i7
-500GB hdd instead of 750
-but the biggest downfall of all..... 1366x768 resolution screen... eeewwwww....

sacrifice all that to get a shiny glowing keyboard. great idea!
