Well after years of having an HP Pavillion Laptop (dv4) i came to realized that the graphic card build it there really suck! so i sold it and now saving up more money to buy the a new laptop built for gaming. So far i narrowed it down to 2 laptops. BUT IF YOU KNOW OF ANOTHER LAPTOP THAT IS SIMILAR TO MY NEED. PLEASE TELL ME PLUS RELIABLE WEBSITES TO BUY IT FROM.

http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stor鈥?/a>|||I know what you're saying, but I'm seriously recommending you check out Alienware. Like someone said they are "designed" for gamers like us. Every bit of it is designed with high end long lasting hardware. You already sais Asus and Toshiba have problems, I have NEVER heard anyone that had a problem with an alienware computer. For less than that $1600 you could have a kickass alienware laptop. The M15 I think starts at $899, add a couple extra features and you're about $1000 in already. I had a Toshiba and granted it worked great for awhile but after about 4-5 years it just died on me. Don't know much about Asus though.





Also both those laptops are using integrated memory I don't care if it goes up to 3gigs, if it's shared it's NOT for gaming. I'm telling you Alienware is the way, they use MXM cards which are NOT integrated into the motherboard and are upgradeable.|||Consider an Alienware as well. They are designed for gaming after all. Dell XPS computers are also a gaming focused computer brand.





Otherwise, go with the Toshiba.
