Buying a new laptop. I have a desktop already, and can't lug it around while I'm moving around for the next while.
From Canada.
Willing to spend up to $1300ish before tax. (May go up to $1500ish if I really like it)

Needs:
Light gaming and want a dedicated gfx card. Ex D3/anything that tickles my fancy.
SSD - kinda want 256gb min
Mostly for work, want portability/light
I will be needing warranty, so wont be willing to add own ssd etc
Screen, 15inch ish?
Win7 pref, but doesn't really matter
Looking for decent battery life.

Asking for a lot lol :P

Liking this one alot atm:

Or this actially, can't edit on phone and post links at same time. Sry for double post.

Alternatively you can wait for skylake mobile cpus to come out because they are adding ones that can be unlocked.

Awesome, I forgot about xotic, thx! Lots of choice there!

Just realized the canadian dollar to usd conversion is so shit atm... 1.31...

I think I'm gonna have to limit myself to 1000-1100 cdn before tax (if i buy from the US), which is like 850USD mhmm... so will probably look into canadian sites/sellers.
