Can i max out crysis 3 and watch dogs with this laptop:
Alienware 18 18.4" Overclocked i7 4930MX EXTREME 4.3GHz NVIDIA 16GB SLI 880M Kingston HyperX 32GB 1866MHz RAM 2TB SSD RAID0 Killer 1202 Bluray Writer Windows 7 Ultimate
or simply
http://www.amazon.com/Alienware-Overclocked-EXTREME-Kingston-Ultimate/dp/B00JCBXL5O/ref=sr_1_11?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1403438034&sr=1-11&keywords=alienware
and could hopefully max out most games in the near nd distant future?

LOL yeah, it better with two 880Ms in SLI.

WOW though, that is expensive, I'd build a SLI 880M + i7 4810MQ (extreme edition is overkill) with orign PC and save $2000.

Yes, you can max out Crysis 3 and Watch Dogs with that laptop.

For that price you can build a system worthy of Skynet on a desktop

Yeah no kidding.

Ok, maybe a tad bit over the price of that laptop (about 5% difference in price) and look what i would make:

I already have a pc
with the same mobo but i have 2 r9 295x2 and a core i7 4960x with 1tb ssd and 1 tb hdd nd 64 gb of ram and with thermaltake chaser a71 and liquid cooler( i thnk i dnt need to say anymore), now you may call me some rich guy but to be honest i don't even have a half the money that pc costs! my relative from my mother's side are very very rich, they gave it to me because i did something very good(which you don't need to know), and the money for my laptop i was saving it because i needed to buy something(which also dnt need to know) but because of something (which you also don't need to know) i lost my interest in buying that thing, so i decided to buy a laptop with that money so i could have a laptop and a desktop and i came up with this laptop!

Those relatives wouldn't happen to be a part of the mafia, would they? (JK,

)

Honestly though, you can get a laptop for much less money and make it perform just as well as that one in gaming. Get the cheapest Alienware 18 and change the GPUs to GTX 880M SLI: http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-18/pd.aspx

ScrewySqrl · Jul 31, 2014

or better yet, don't pay alienware's redonkulous prices in the first place.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834313740

SLI's 755s and a i7-4700QM. Should do fine for 1/6 the price!

gamingmaniac · Jul 31, 2014

what!!! you can change the gpu of a LAPTOP! awesome but the only problem is that it dosen't have i7 4930MX which is a better processor!
nd when u say that u can change the gpu of a laptop then another question arises in my mind that which is a better gpu SLI 880M or SLI 780M?

as per Eduello's first question,
I don't really know, i mean seriously in the 26 years of my precious life i dnt really know EXACTLY what they are doing to get money, my mom never tells me what they are doing and according to my dad some do business stuff and others are some high posted managers in big companies like microsoft and uniliever e.t.c
At least they are not part of any mafia!!!!

Eduello · Jul 31, 2014

@ScrewySqrl: True that, but high-end performance is going to cost you, and SLI'd 755Ms won't max out Crysis 3 or Watch Dogs.

@gamingmaniac: You can change the GPU on sites that offers laptops that can be customized. You can get better CPUs if you get a more expensive model, but it's really not going to affect your gaming performance. SLI'd 880Ms are a bit more powerful than 780Ms.

I found another alienware with 780m sli and price difference was barely $50-$100 that's why i was asking.
the reason im buying this high-end laptop is because it would also be able to run games in the distant future because i don't get 6.5k every day nor every month so it's perfectly safe to assume that i won't be upgrading for a considerable period of time!
