I started out shpping for the Alienware m11x. For around $1600 US I would at least look at the ASUS G73JH
http://usa.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=8je5Ot4HBnKOdT81
The only downsides compared to the 11X are real world 1.5 hour battery life; and 7 pound weight. The specs are incredible, it will easily handle any modern game. I am waiting on my preorder, 17.3 HD screen, 1 TB storage, 8 GIG ram, the latest ATI mobile graphics card...

Intel® Core™ i7 720QM (1.8GHz) Processor
Windows 7 Home Premium - 64bit Edition
15.6" FULL HD LED Display (1920x1080)
1GB ATi Mobility Radeon HD5870 - DX11
16GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory
500GB SATA Hard Drive

Bilabos, If you mean the Mesh Edge DX Pro that system looks great! The specs look really solid, a nice gaming rig. From what I have read 4 GIG ram is plenty for gaming and maximiing Win 7 64 bit performance. The cooling on the $1600 US ASUS is supposed to be excellent, I would like to see more information about the Mesh's cooling system. ASUS is also ranked number one in 3 year reliability for notebooks.
Another nice thing of you order from http://www.powernotebooks.com/ they will test the system B4 shipping (as long as you ask) and if you want to customize it they can do it and not void the generous warranty.

500GB SATA Hard Drive

These Specs are amazing at that price. When you say 699 do you mean £699 ? That comes out to a little over $1000 US dollars!!!
I would be willing to buy one of these for a considerable premium over that price!!!That is a great friend you have.

i thought it was a good find but i was worrying about the quallity of the actuall laptop but you can buy a cool pad if you click on the customize bit then click on the next button then go down and theres a bit for laptop cooling £23 pounds is quite good

p.s. the spec are a bit funny up there cause i rushed when i was typing ^^
Intel® Core™ i7 720QM (1.7GHz) Processor 6mb l2 cache
Windows 7 Home Premium - 64bit Edition
15.6" FULL HD LED Display (1920x1080)
1GB ATi Mobility Radeon HD5870 - DX11
6GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory
500GB SATA Hard Drive 7200rpm

if i had anoth money i would go for either sager or asus but im to skint

 

[billabos]

oh and in engla the asus you were talking about its £1,920 which is annoying

 

[billabos]

england* and one more thing will this computer the mesh will it run bfbc2? on medium to high?

As someone who owns BC2 I feel safe saying you'll need to spend a hefty amount on a laptop if you want to play it with the eye candy turned up. Just go browse over some BC2 benchmarks... particularly the ones at the lower resolutions. The mobility Radeon 5870 will do OK... but that is just the equivalent of a desktop Radeon 5770... so keep that in mind as you're browsing over benchmarks.

 

[rodney_ws]

And as far as your question goes... if you're talking about a laptop with a single GPU, that would be one with an ATI Mobility 5870. However, there are other multi-GPU setups in laptops that provide more graphics muscle...
