I never post on /g/ but I'm considering buying a laptop good for gaming and I'm wondering what you guys recommend. No fancy descriptions please, I'm pretty new to this.
Pic unrelated.

A Chromebook and a gaming desktop.
Seriously. Very few people have a need for gaming on the go, so with a gaming laptop what you end up with is an expensive computer that isn't very good for gaming and that isn't very portable.

Anything with at least a gt 840m or higher, or r9 graphics.

This. Of course you need to install a Linux distro on the chromebook if you want to escape the botnet.
Yeah just get any laptop that isn't some alienware shit.
Lurk logical increments and maybe /r/buildapc and see if you would be open to building your own. You'd probably save a lot of money given the performance you want in the long run.

this is true. At first you feel like you are ready for gaming but then you buy a tower for $100 less and find it out performs any played games.

You can get this one for $100 off with the promo code. I haven't decided if I want to get it or wait until cyber monday

From personal exp. I own Z710 - do not buy gaming laptop. Big, fat, hard to carry, battery lasts ~3h. Best solution as mentioned before - small laptop and gaming tower.

Thinkpad X220 or T420 and a gaming desktop.
If you're poorfagging it get the T420 and an external GPU setup to connect to the PCI-E Mini connector.

Give me sauce, and I won't scold you for bringing up this "gaming laptop" meme.
a friend of mine bought a MSI GT72S last week. He is pretty happy with it, although it was a bit pricey. Still a better choice than alienware notebooks
For people like you, /g/ usually recommends >>>/v/
Get your own hardware threads dammit

Asus rog is very good for gaming. Most of these new gaming laptops cost about 2000 usd. Google top gaming laptops. Razer blade is good and light. Im getting myself a razer blade for xmas. Asus rog is def the best one yet tho. Its heavy and big. It wouldnt be comfortable to lug it arround. I suggest you try ebay. You can get a used razer blade for 1000 usd.
