Best laptop for gaming?

My budget would be around $1000-$2000 and I would use the laptop for other things too. What laptop or brand makes laptops that are the best for gaming within my budget?

Oh and please don't say "build your own computer" because first of all I don't know how and second of all building a laptop woulld be very hard for an unexperienced person.

sorry no links is mean ... check em out

I am using Acer laptop...It took me $800..

You can have a look at dell..

the Dell XPS M1330 is a good one to try...It is about $1000.

If you got cash to burn this laptop will run any game out right now and even crysis on high.

However I would not recommend a labtop for gaming because thats just silly. Do you know how much power a gaming labtop drains? you'll just end up using it as a desktop rather than a labtop by just leaving it on the charger all the time.

Alright the first laptop I'm looking at is from sager and customised:

Since this goes over my budget what should I downgrade so I can get the best performance for gaming(maximum 2 games installed at once) but a lower price?

I don't care what anyone said, that thing is not worth $2700, that's ridiculous. Quad sli on a laptop, you'll have the battery life of 5.............minutes.

It's a Cyberpower... so it's likely about $5 of parts recovered from a dumpster and put together with duct tape.

Anyhow... with a 1000-2000 budget you can get a very nice laptop. Like this one that will max out everything pretty much:

ASUS M70 $1549.99

It would be ludicrous to waste money on an expensive laptop, be it Sager or Cyberripoff, when it's going to have a half-life of about a couple years at best since laptops are not upgradable and often have overheating issues that further shorten their lifespan.
