I am looking to get a fast running, multi task operating PC.
Something where I can stream myself playing, Dota 2 / WoW.

I'm guessing my only musts are i7 processor (or something better), and geforce whatever is the best.

Looking to pay max 1500 $ or less.

Will donate to helpful answers.

Get a clevo/sager build from xoticpc.com they have great machines. You could also go with the lesser expensive but still good for gaming Lenovo Y500 or Y580.

Streaming on a laptop might be iffy even on a high end rig.

I'm really interested in Clevo/Sager, but I'm looking to buy a laptop quickly, and customization will prolly result in a 2-4 weeks before i get my laptop.

How is this PC?

i would never buy a hp laptop for gaming, since they have retarded overheating problems.
i'd go with only those 4 brands : lenovo , sager , msi , asus.

Not going with Sager/Clevo since it does not cover my country.

How does this look?

xoticpc does ship internationally
if gaming, 660m is the very min I would go
a 670m is roughly 1200$ american w/ sager

I know, but they do not have warranties that cover my country.

"Do you accept International Orders and how is the warranty handled?

XOTIC PC gladly accepts International Orders. For any International Order (Outside of US/Canada/PR/GU) we require payment via Bank Wire, Check or Money Order. For any Warranty the customer is responsible for shipping both ways to our service center in the US.

XOTIC PC provides International Shipping via UPS and USPS. UPS is our recommended option for International Customers. USPS provides slower transit times and if the package is lost or damaged the USPS claim process can take much more time then UPS. "

I was talking with an employee over the live chat.
They technically do not have warranties for countries outside the US (except for Canada), because you have to pay for shipment both ways.
