What's the best laptop I can get for gaming, /wsr/?
>inb4 PC is so much better
I move around a lot, and I'm not going to spend all day plugging and unplugging that shit.

Unfortunately for you the vast majority of video games require sitting in one place for extended periods of time. Stick to mobile games OP.

Im no expert but I got an MSI leopard on sale and it runs most games just fine, only con is that it's a bit heavy (7.5 pounds)

That depends a lot on what you're playing. It's no different from selecting a desktop machine: figure out what you want from it (what games, what resolution, are you willing to drop to medium settings or does everything have to be ultra-smooth, are you going to use it for anything else), match up a GPU/CPU with that, then select a model that comes closest for the best price.
If you're going to do nothing but play WoW on it, it'll be a lot cheaper than a machine that has to run the latest next-gen shit at the highest settings. With laptops, you pay for every inch of screen.

If you get something with a 980M chipset you'll be able to run current gen at max and more than adequate framerates when plugged in (battery, not as great but still doable). These laptops have taken a dip in price since the GTX 1070/1080 were introduced, but they're still not cheap. Powerful mobile gaming comes at a premium.
If you have cash to burn, wait a month or two more for laptops with the 1070M/1080M and you'll have something that'll run the next generation adequately as well (though what they'll cost is anyone's guess), or go for a 980M setup and enjoy good frame rates at a lower cost. Make sure your new high-end toy has an SSD so you don't cripple it needlessly (though most laptops that sport high end GPUs will).

a laptop is a PC ya dingus
I'll bump just once, I'd still like more opinions before I make a decision.
