Well after years of having an HP Pavillion Laptop (dv4) i came to realized that the graphic card build it there really suck! so i sold it and now saving up more money to buy the a new laptop built for gaming. So far i narrowed it down to 2 laptops. BUT IF YOU KNOW OF ANOTHER LAPTOP THAT IS SIMILAR TO MY NEED. PLEASE TELL ME PLUS RELIABLE WEBSITES TO BUY IT FROM.
So which of the two laptops bellow do you know will fit my requirements?
My Budget: a little bit over $1,600
What I'm Looking For: The best gaming laptop for $1600, 15-18 inches, be able to handle games like Crysis, Dragon Age Origins and Mass Effect 2 on the highest setting ( or at least high setting) need the best graphic card and processor.
Between The Two Laptops: I'm leaning toward to the Asus G73JH-A1 more

P.S. ---%26gt; Alienware is not an option. Too expensive. So which one is better guys? Asus or toshiba? And reason why too please. Also no HP laptops. They tend to get really hot.|||I'd take the Asus
- FHD
- DX11 GPU
- 2 hard drives
- Warranty
- Toshiba screams, "LOOK AT ME" (imho)
- Nice size community of other G73 owners:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-gam鈥?/a>
http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus/492鈥?/a>
The only reason I might go for the Toshiba is for the media keys, ExpressCard slot, and eSATA port, or if I were inconvenienced by the problems on the G73. I would rather find another laptop though if not the G73, maybe the Sager NP8760 even if it doesn't have the backlit keyboard and BRD.
Edit:
The second link I listed describes all known problems with the G73Jh. I don't think you'll find much in the way of only problems with the A1.
If you want a customized model:

http://www.excaliberpc.com/
http://www.xoticpc.com/
They're all reputable. Otherwise Amazon has it as well.|||Asus G73JH-A1|||both are ok for you, so just take it.|||ASUS i think Asus is the laptop which you want on the other hand i would like to suggest t0 you MAC pro these also coz these mas's are realy nice once you stat MAc you wont back so consider MAc also..............|||I like Asus motherboards way better all around. They make great home-builds, and in a laptop it is even sweeter. They were one of the 1st to offer 5 secs to the Internet via Linux (and FireFox installed in the GUI) on their desktop motherboards...as a boot option, plus Skype for phone calls. I do not know if the laptops have that option, but you can download Linux Ubuntu 10.5 for free, regardless of your present system...and as a bonus, it is 3x or better in speed on the Internet than when running in Windows. Look for www.ubuntu.com.
The fact the Asus has 8 gigs versus the Toshiba 4gigs also makes it very easy to make up my mind, when it comes to memory caching, and if you need a wired network, you can always get a card. But with WI-FI, who cares? Plus you are covered with Blue-tooth for your cell...and the screen resolution is higher. You cannot upgrade your screen pixels later, so the Asus is my final choice.|||There's no question about it.
The ASUS G73 is superior in EVERY aspect (that matters).
The Mobility 5870 is much, much better than the 360M. Most important aspect.
The ASUS screen has a much higher resolution. The Toshiba screen has a stupid resolution that's not as high.
The Asus has a bigger hard drive.
The Toshiba has a slightly better CPU but you're playing games which means the difference is negligible, if any. The only time the 740 will have a lead is if you're video editing or doing something intensive like rendering.
The Asus has more RAM which still doesn't matter because most games run perfectly fine on 4GB of RAM.
Asus means you get a "free" gaming mouse.
Battery life will suck on both, along with weight, but it's obviously something you don't care about that much. Also, the Asus is lighter.|||I would suggest ASUS Republic of Gamers G73JH-A1 17-Inch Gaming Laptop
this product and it performs really well I would definitely suggest
ASUS Republic of Gamers G73JH-A1 17-Inch Gaming Laptop
*1.6GHz Intel i7-720QM Quad-Core Processor
*8GB DDR3 1066MHz; 4 SODIMM Sockets; up to 8GB
*1TB (500G 7200RPM x2) HDD; Blue-Ray Disk Combo Drive; 802.11 b/g/n
*17.3-Inch Full HD LED Display; ATI 5870 Graphics with 1G GDDR5; 2.0M Webcam
*Windows Home Premium 64-bit Operating System; Gaming Backpack and Mouse
http://www.amazon.com/Republic-Gamers-G7鈥?/a>
Also check out at Ebay there are really good deals going
http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-鈥?/a>|||You want to get the 500GB Seagate Momentus XT hard drive. I updated mine last week... If possible, USB 3.0 ports too or you can spend $30 for an Express34 card that will fit into an Express34 or Express54 slot.
You might look at custom gaming machines here if you want faster CPUs / more customization
http://www.avadirect.com/product_details鈥?/a>
They have several other models. I have not bought hardware there yet, but I have been thinking about it.|||Both is OK for game. which is better? Asus G73JH-A1 is better than Toshiba Quosmio X505-Q88. Asus G73JH-A1 is good in all aspects. one different thing is longer warranty.
