Well I play some graphically intense modern games. One for example would be Arma 3. I do casual stuff like just write things. I know what you mean by some gaming laptops are a bit overpriced, but I'm no newbie in the PC department. One of the laptops I've been looking at are here.

	I should've been more specific about what I'm asking about. What I'm asking is like.. what's the reliability of a laptop? Is it good to invest in a expensive laptop? Do they overheat a lot of the time? Are SLI laptops more prone to that than just a single graphics card laptop? 

	I'll have a safe place to store it, but if I were to bring my desktop, it's just a big honkin' thing that I don't want to haul around.

	The idea of buying a laptop is to make it easier to haul around so when I move to a new duty station or if I get deployed it's nothing but a thing to bring it along.
