Hey guys I just need a little help here. I need a laptop for part time college after work but I still want to play PC gaming and I can't afford both a powerful rig and a laptop for scholl so I i'm just going to stick with low requirment games for now considering that I cant afford a gaming PC atm. So the games I need a laptop to handle are-

Guild Wars 2

Diablo 3

Skyrim

Left 4 Dead 2

basically MMO's

on medium settings with good frames (basically not ugly and playable)

and arcade games off steam like Minecraft

Also it would be great to play games like Borderlands 2, Bioshock Infinity, The Witcher 2 on medium settings with good frames

Can anyone reccomend to me something?

With a $1100 price limit

I really like really want to play The Witcher 2 probaly more than any other game right now but I don't want to be lost in the story. Will I be missing anything if I skip the first one and besides the first one looks kind of old and outdated and not much fun to play.

You might want to tell us which PSU it is?dramaybaz
Corsair TX750 bronze certified. Would it be safe to use TX650 instead?

[QUOTE="juiceman77"]

All I want is a mobo that has all the latest hardware, overclocks great, can run 2 GPU's in SLI or Crossfire, and is great for gaming. I don't need extras like bluetooth only what I'm going to use. Here is the best I've found so far but I'm still kind of uneducated when it comes to all the functions of different ports so idk what I need. Oh and I've heard Z68 is the best for gaming/performance/overclocking so that's what I've been going for over P67 which I've heard has alot of glitches and H67 or whatever which is like entry level.

WiiRocks66

Yeah, that's the mobo I would suggest. Mine in my sig(Z68A-G43) is also a good choice, but I paid less than 100 for it at Christmas. Now it is 117, and at that price, I would go with the ASRock instead.

So basically I can't get any better than this? And why do higher end boards cost so much, I mean what do they have that this one doesn't?
