Question

Need suggestion for a gaming laptop!

by Mar 5, 2015 3:09AM PST

I am so confused with variety and brands and numerous models that are available.

Ok well my considerations are following

GPU: GTX 860M (minimum)
Screen: 17"
RAM: 8 GB (minimum)
Processor: Intel i7
OS: Windows 7 HP...or even 8, I don't care. Please suggest why should I.
Budget: 1200 Euros (Maximum, not a penny more)

Not sure if laptops come with mechanical keyboard and if they are super expensive.

I found XMG A704 and MSI GE70 series nice...but there were a lot more...ASUS G750...Lenovo Y Series.

I am really confused...please help me, I want to buy the laptop within this week.

Right off the bat the mechanical keyboard should find so few machines that you have only those. In the USA I don't see such today.

Have to go with not one laptop found yet. Maybe in a few years or ???
