Need help selecting a gaming/editing laptop for £2200 or $3300US

"Yah yah yah blah blah gaming laptops SUCK! "

At the moment it makes more sense for me to own a laptop because I often travel a lot and a laptop would be useful for work etc.

I have a max budget of about £2200 or $2300US.

Requirements:

At least 90Hz refresh rate (120Hz is preferred!)

Gsync would be nice if possible.

15" or 17"

An Intel desktop CPU (eg 4790K)

If possible a desktop 980 but if not then a 980M or 970m Sli

1TB SSD and 2TB hard drive secondary storage.

16GB of Ram

AND... Something that is actually portable and looks the part without being overly fancy.

The system will be used for gaming and editing in Photoshop, Adobe AE, Premiere Pro and game development in Unity.

What are my options?

I don't know of any laptop with a higher refresh rate than 60hz to be honest, a quick google search didn't help either..

Just look around on MSI's site or ASUS' site. They have plenty to choose from and you'll probably find what you're looking for there. 

 

If you find something that you like but it's missing something like a larger HDD or SSD, those things are upgradable and shouldn't deter you from buying it. 

 

Hope you find something nice lol

Nope, they don't have desktop processors.

The specs I recommend

 

 

Total comes out to 1906 GBP with VAT.

 

For refresh rate of the screen, it should be 75Hz with G-Sync, but I think you can overclock it if you wish.
