Posted August 26, 2014 What's up guy? Sooo I'm not much of a laptop guy. The little I do know of them mainly stays in the insane gaming laptop scene. But that's not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something that is about: -15" max. - 4-5+ hours battery life. -Decent looking. (I don't want something that looks cheap. I'm ok with plastic as long as it looks good) -Good performance. Again it's a laptop that I'll use for work. But when I come home and maybe want to sit in front of the TV and do some casual gaming(Steam Streaming), I don't want it to be sluggish. Can you guys think of anything that would fit my needs? price isn't really an issue as long as it's not something ridiculous like $3k+ for something that doesn't even have a discrete GPU...

Posted August 26, 2014 Elitebook? But their not good for gaming because they have a quattro card instead of a gtx card, would be great for work but not gaming. Or one of those Asus ROG laptops.

This one perhaps, if you're going to be gaming. http://www.amazon.fr/MSI-GT70-2PC-1052FR-Dominator-Ordinateur/dp/B00J0V1TL4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=undefined&sr=8-1&keywords=Msi+gt70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't need something with a dedicated gaming GPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't need a dedicated GPU seeing as my Desktop will be doing all the work and the laptop will just be decoding the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
