I have a old dell that I am looking to replace and would like some advice on a new one. Id like a large screen, good enough for gaming if needed and something I can watch movies on when traveling.
What are the higher end ones I should be looking at.

gamewise, anything and budget is to try to stay at or under 3k. I really want a good, solid Laptop i can game on but I dont want one gold plated with diamonds of you know what I mean.

I would look for a gaming laptop with a 17in. screen and a core i7 CPU that runs at least 3.4.
A decent graphics card like a 770 would be outstanding.

I was looking at a Alienwear that has specs close to that. I was wondering though if they were still good to buy or if there was something better.

ASUS and MSI make good gaming laptops
