Ok, I'm in the same boat as a lot of people. I want to have a decent gaming laptop that is capable of playing atleast a few current games such as Skyrim and the upcoming elder scrolls online on the best settings or atleast good enough that it wont have framerate issues or bad graphics (can't wait) but I am on a budget. I have 500 atm the moment saved up for one but 1500 is my max to spend on one (atleast for now). I am just worried that I might make a stupid mistake and buy a crappy one. I just want to know, based on all of your experiences, what would be the ideal choice of a laptop that would meet my standards or atleast be close to them. thanks for the help!

for the best bang for your buck ditch a laptop and build your own desktop you can make something that will easilly run skyrim at max for ~ 900$
