Looking for Gaming Laptop [View all]

Hi folks,

Went through a tragedy recently and decided that I really need a way to blank out. As it is, I'm bedridden and can pretty much only do stuff on my laptop, but it's starting to show its age. I was only able to afford this one due to back pay from winning my disability case.

If someone out there has a gaming laptop they've retired for an affordable price, something better than mine, I'd appreciate it. I can't even have more than $2000, and the new model Alienware suggests is $1877, which is basically impossible. Their upgrades department said I already have as much RAM as I can, and my GPU is soldered on, so ...

Anyway, here's some info I have. Please feel free to PM me if you have anything. Even if it's used, so long as it's better and affordable, I'd be deeply grateful for a look.

Some info I can provide on what I currently have ...

Alienware M15x
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Intel Core i7 CPU - Q 740 @ 1.73GHz (8 CPUs), ~1.7GHz
8GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M (Approx. Total Memory 4GB)


Thanks very much.
