So, coming in the next month or two I'm looking at changing positions at work that would require me to be on the road for quite a bit. My plans are to sell/dismantle/trade my 2 year old gaming desktop and get my hands on a laptop. Obviously anything these days is fine for internet surfing, AIM etc etc.

My issue is I really have no idea what a GOOD laptop video card is these days, or at all, for that matter to be able to keep up with the latest games. My plans are to really play RIFT for quite a while when it launches and something that can really do me well there and maybe a little above would be really helpful.

If it matters I'm looking for a 15 inch screen and don't want to pay much more then a $1000.

Hell to be honest I'd be happy with something that would outperform my desktop.

Current Desktop:
Asus Maximus Formula II
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 barely OCed to 3.2 ghz
XFX Nvidia Geforce 9800 GTX+ Black Edition
4 GB DDR2 Dominator Memory

Any help you guys could offer would be HIGHLY appreciated.
