Looking for suggestions

Hello,

I am in the market for a laptop, and I must profess a certain degree of ignorance. Especially in the realm of CPUs. I could research the fastest and latest, but there has to be a point of diminishing returns. Is $500-$600 for a laptop with the latest and greatest CPU/GPU worth the added cost. I don't play a lot of Triple A games though, it would be nice to have the option. I primarily stick to older titles, including World of Warcraft (which I know has been heavily updated). I don't do video editing, and my copies of Photoshop ans Illustrator are about 15 years old.

Wants:

* Quality screen. Refresh needn't be 120.

* >16gb of RAM

* 1 TB storage.

* Ability to run all games on at least medium settings.

* HDMI port

* Battery that lasts 2-3 hours under a load.

*Durable construction (I travel a lot)

Would be nice:

* Light weight

* large screen

* Thunderbolt

* Optical drive

* Touchscreen

Don't Care About:

* RGB

* keyboard

* trackpad

* webcam

* Internal Storage (can be HD or SSD)

Sorry, I didn't mean a $600 laptop. I actually meant the difference between a $1,500 and a $2,100+. My budget is $1,000-$1,500, but closer to a $1,000 is preferred.
