Looking into buying a laptop.

Budget: $800 dollars

Use: Gaming and college

More Specific notes: I want a laptop that can play fighting games and other games like Call of duty. I am looking for around 1 terrabyte of memory. I don't mind if its not an ssd. I also don't mind if its refurbished. I believe best at this budget to get 1080p 60 fps. I am basicaly looking for the best value laptop. Help and advice appreciated.
