I really need some recommendations. I need to find an affordable laptop that can play mainly mmorpgs at max settings at 1080p and not lag in massive online battles. I need the screen to be 17.3" but it can be 1600x900 as long as i can play 1080p on my 50" hdtv when im inside. I want to use it outside a lot so i think the screen has to be non-reflective. Backlit keyboard would be nice but not a deal breaker. I really need to keep price as low as possible but i'm willing to save up more money if there is a substantially better bang-for-buck option, however i still wouldnt want to go above $800 if possible. So if the price is low enough, im willing to settle for maxing mmos like the newest expansion of WoW, but if there is a great bang-for-buck option that can max new and upcoming mmos such as Blade and Soul, that would be ideal. Thats all i can think of atm, sry for the long post. Any help is much appreciated, thank you.

Many MMO games can be very cpu demanding.

While my i7 2600K @ 4.4 is and older system it should still be able to keep up with most sub 1000 dollar notebooks and even it will lag in large battles on some MMO games(looking at you GW2). This is a cpu bottleneck and not a video card one.

It is the nature of the beast with MMO games that large battles place rather heavy strain on systems.
