I've heard people say I should get a Dell, but I heard they're overpriced. What I'm hoping to get is an HD screen, a decent amount of RAM and a videocard that can handle the latest stuff.
What about tablet style PCs? Are there any good ones out there? All the ones I've seen max out at about a 14 inches screen size.

"Gaming" and "Laptop" is bad enough combination, and you want "value" as well?

I've got an (

The Toshiba (

The prices are nothing short of what you'd imagine, though. Koki's point is, unfortunately, quite true - in the case of gaming laptops, "good value" only means it's slightly more lubricated a bumrape than the other bumrape in the category, so be prepared to spend a pretty penny. For the X305, prices are in the 1500-1800$, depending on configuration, and I don't think that includes taxes.
