So I want a gaming laptop for around 1,500 or under. I'm willing to go a bit higher but not much.

I want decent portability, that's why i'm not getting a desktop PC.

I don't need top of the range but something that will run the modern games smoothly.
I don't need or really want to play on max settings but i want to be-able to play them lag free.

The games i want to play are:
Watch dogs
GTA 5 (when it comes out on PC)
Elder scrolls online
COD games

Things like that.

So if somebody could give a few suggestions that would be great

Thanks
