I would suggest either the Sager NP8662 (15.4") or the Sager NP5797 (17"), but I have no idea where you would order them from for them to ship to Latvia.

I would recommend HP hdx 16. Good for performance and affordable price ...

The HDX16 has nowhere near the performance level of either Sager or the Asus.

The HDX16 has nowhere near the performance level of either Sager or the Asus.

I think the Sager will be cheaper then Asus, but i'm not sure about the diffrence in performance
(if your looking at the same spec's)

...the HDX16 is an HP. I wasn't comparing the Asus and Sager models.

 

[csodey]

I would go with either an Asus or Lenovo. I have a Lenovo Y710 and their newer Y730s are great. They have ATI chips with DDR3 memory. You should look at the Lenovo outlet and you can find one on the cheap.
