Short version: New gamming laptop recommendation(for details look bellow)
Long version:
I've been researching laptops as I'm strongly considering buying one, however as someone who barely knows the function of ram(let alone where it comes from) I'm in over my head. So I'm asking you guys to recommend a laptop that I'd like either from personal experience or just the fact your knowledgeable about such things, but first I need to explain what I'm wanting from my laptop. Most people want small portable things but since I'm usually loaded up like a pack horse anyway and could carry alot for a while size does not matter. Since size doesn't matter I'd prefer one with a good quality screen that will let me get the most from video and pictures. Battery life is not that important either since I'd usually be around a power plug and just plug it in, if I was traveling I'd only use it for 2-3 hours anyway. It is however mandatory that it is capable of playing games with high ram, graphic and memory needs. Cooling while important does not need to affect the decision as I can improvise with that. I'd prefer if it had good wi-fi capabilities so I could pick up a good connection in certain areas. Also in this age of technology a laptop could become a piece of junk in a couple years so the newer it is the longer it will generally last so the newer the better. Finally the price... Luckily I have a chunk of cash laying around combined with a mountain of gift cards to futureshop, so bonus points if this laptop can be purchased there. Thanks for any suggestions you can give me!
