Hey,
I currently only own a Mac but want to either buy a gaming laptop, or for a cheaper alternative, buy microsoft and run games via that. How well will games such as Skyrim with numerous mods, Saints Row, GTA or Elder Scrolls Online run like this?
Thanks.

It all depends on your budget my friend.

A top of the line gaming rig can go for upwards of $4000.

But, you could easily get away with building one for $1200 that would be able to handle almost everything you throw at it.

Depends on the model of Mac you have. If it's a recent (last year or so) iMac model most games will run decently at mid-high settings. If it's a MacBook Pro 15" or greater (comes with dedicated graphics) you should be alright too. I currently play with a MacBook Pro and I get good framerates in most games at 1440x900 (native), with medium settings. But I'm moving to PC soon for the extra power.
