Advice on a New Gaming Laptop

[Forte]

really sucks you want to spend all that money on a laptop when you could build a monster of a desktop for a couple hundred less.

Ive never liked laptops for gaming simply because overheating issues. When your playing a mmo for long periods of time its going to get hot. Heat is not good =P

but if you're going to do it, do it right

The 256 will offer way more room to play with as you will want your top 1 or 2 games on it as well as the operating system.

I wouldn't mind building one eventually just time issue ~_~: I take care of my grandma every day 24/7 so finding the time to buy parts and put it all together then figuring out all the BEST parts would be the issue so figured it would be easy to just buy a laptop ~_~;

picking out the parts is super easy, building it will take you about an hour 1/2 (if its your first time building), then installing windows/drivers/updates another 2 hours (but installing windows only takes about an hour) the updates can happen over time.
