Somewhere around $1,000-$1,200. And America. Arkansas specifically.

I'm starting to lean towards the Asus too. It's even a little cheaper.

The Asus RoG g751jl-bsi7t28 Vs Lenovo Y70 Which would also be better for programs such as Photoshop and Game Maker Studios?

Any recommendations of specific laptops within the same price range (or lower) that will get the job done?

Just trying to get some help here from somebody that may know more than me. I am currently looking for a laptop powerful enough for my needs without really breaking the bank. I'm not too interested in playing AAA title games that have demanding graphics right now. I really just want something that I can do some simple video editing (nothing too ambitious), maybe some streaming, some photoshop, and to for sure create games. I'm really only interested in making 2D games (like the type HeartBeast is making on YouTube) with Game Maker Studios. I have been considering the Lenovo Y-70 but I'm starting to think it might have too much horse power now. If I could possibly save a few hundred on a laptop that would be able to perform all the tasks I am wanting to throw at it with ease, that would be awesome! Preferably something that has a good 17" display. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Oh and sorry if this is posted under the wrong category.
