Hey, I have a budget of 1000-15001500-2000 for a laptop. This laptop will be for Electrical Engineering Computer Gaming. I don't care if it's bulky(If it comes down to a big difference in specs or price), or whatever. The places I'll need my laptop have outlets, so I don't care about battery life. I just want be able to play resource heavy games comfortably.

I've been out of the scene for a while, I don't really know what's good or what's not.

The budget is 1000-1500, so aim a little higher because I'll be looking for a refurbished model if it comes down to the performance.

Thanks for the help.

We're not the biggest laptop lovers I guess but that's a good choice to go for, I'll take a look at some other options.

That's 100% understandable and if I had a option, I would spend this kind of money for a killer desktop computer, but unfortunately for the space I have in my dorm, and just wanting one computer for mobility and ease, I need to settle for a laptop.

Can't really find much that will compete I'd go for it.

Ehh yeah, but unfortunately for where I save for the screen, I pay for the tax....So my total on newegg would come out to be $1998.73 WITH the newegg accidental warranty. For the ebay listing below, it would be around $1900 with a warranty from [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Here I have the same laptop but instead of the nvidia geforce gtx 970m 3gb, I get the nvidia geforce gtx 970m 6gb and for $200 less (and without the screen and game :'( )

Is there a big difference in those two specs to make or break the deal?

The 'free gifts' can be bought for around $200 so for $200 less, you get a better laptop and if you want, you can buy the monitor and game separately for around $200 so it'd work out the same price for the same stuff basically.

Yeah I think after realizing that there's a pro model, that offers the nvidia geforce gtx 970m 6gb
instead of the 3gb version for the same price (essentially because I'm buying a warranty for $230 elsewhere lol) I'd rather go for the ebay one because I get a better laptop one, I bypass the tax. So for the screen I don't need, and the game i don't need, I have a better laptop upgrade for the same price.

So yeah haha
