850 Max although closer to 750 would be nice

Prefer for it to be 15+

3. What screen resolution do you want?
I don't think this needs to be a priority for me.

4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
It will mainly be my main computer and used as a desktop replacement. I will travel with it occasionally though.

More is better obviously but not a main priority.

6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
I will play SC2 on it frequently but not too concerned with other games. Settings as high as possible, at least medium hopefully.

Nothing too special. Just general internet surfing with some movie watching.

8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
Don't really store movies or songs on my computer so think I can skimp here.

I can tell that the graphics cards on the ones you guy have listed are better. Are the ones in these computers just not enough? And do they make up for the sacrifices in other components make up for it since I will be using it for everyday use and more than just gaming?
