I know you guys hate 'gaming laptops' but for someone who's going to be using one for Photoshop projects and gaming, what would you recommend? Which brands will offer the best prices for quality?
A desktop
Probably gonna get shit for this but if you're strictly sticking to laptops, the Macbook pro is built for photoshop.

Although the battery life is short.
>>52421130
Probably between 1000-2000 ish, I'm OP ignore other faggot
>>52421197
alright do you care much about battery life(if its just gona stay on your desk all day then thats a no)?If you do care, around how many hours would you want?
>>52421228
Nah battery life isn't a problem, it's mostly just for the sake of portability. It'll be plugged in wherever it goes.

Razer Blade Stealth :^)

Probably overkill but you'll be able to play the latest games for the next 5 years on the highest settings with this rig

Get it with profession color calibration, 250gb SSD as your main drive and a 1TB as your 2nd drive, and windows 7 OS.
You can save some money if you happen to have a windows 7 installation disc, also i'd recommend you buy addtional ram from elsewhere like ebay since it'd be cheaper than buying it from xoticpc, you can do the same for the SSD if you want.
A cheaper option would be

with the same set up as the above one although the gpu is a bit weaker.

> le laptops are shit for gaming meme
End this.
Only retards are going to try to play crysis or new games on a laptop. If you only play what the specs allow and don't fry you shit from multitasking or long sessions of DX10 games you'll be fine.
Buy a T450

Laptop is only good for porn

>muh photoshop and gamus!!111
Get your shit together, you are not an artist, I doubt you even open photoshop for more then 5 minutes.
And you probably want to play "muh gta-5 ultra high specs" so go here and buy a console you shitlord.

>>52421384
Thanks for the info friend, the prices here seem to be pretty decent compared to dell and lenovo. What exactly am I paying for with color calibration though?
>>52421632
Just makes the colors look more real and nicer i assume you'd want that if you're using photoshop.
>>52421691
Alright well thank you for your help anon, I appreciate it. We'll keep everything bookmarked as we continue our search and approach the buy date. Have a nice day!
