PostPosted: 09 01, 2012 /07:00 

Since my old laptop is dead, i would like to search for good laptop.
What i want is a powerful laptop that can play Crysis 3 and BF3 which smaller than 17" and not too expensive

Also, mobility doesn't concern me so much. And i travel overseas a lot, so the chance for me getting desktop is 0

My choice so far is MSI GE60 (GTX660M).

Since this is a gaming community, i think you guys may be able to help me
Thanks!

The best laptop is a disposable cheapo laptop combined with an ungodly desktop at home.

However, since you said this is impossible, I suggest anything high-end from MSI or ASUS. I like me some ASUS.

I don't need to max out all games, I just need something that can play most of the games. Also, it wouldn't be reasonable to carry 2 PCs overseas and keep the PC at home and use one at the time. Moreover, it won't be so good to load my PC under the planes whenever I travel.

The only problem is that both Alienware and Asus are pretty expensive, comparing to the spec of GE60K (the one with GTX660m). The only other choice I know is the new Razer Blade, but that will be expensive too.

I consider MSI because the price is super cheap, but I'm still concern about its build quality and usage life.

I may have to ask other people to confirm that MSI sucks like you said or not, but thanks for the reply.

i heard from many ppl that msi are overheating (and i dont mean problem with dust in cooler). And many reclamations was because of dead/damaged motherboard

Well, I see that this MSI has instant fan speed boost for cases that the com is too hot. I guess the heat problem could be solved.

I guess the only problem left is the mainboard. Hope it isn't too bad.
