The 4.4-pound Razer Blade still
sports a seductive black aluminum chassis with the glowing green accents that
bring all the gamers to the yard. But it's the bright, vivid 3200 x 1800
touchpanel that's the real eye candy. Equipped Nvidia's fast GeForce GTX 970M
graphics, the Blade is a must-buy for gamers searching for the ultimate
thin-and-light gaming laptop.
MSI GT80 Titan SLI Rating 4.5 Starting Price-3399$
MSI packed a whole lot of win
into the GT80 Titan SLI's imposing 9.9-pound frame. It's one of the first
gaming laptops to feature a mechanical keyboard, which delivers speed and
accuracy whether you're gaming or typing. In case you need a number pad to help
you dole out the beat down, the digital trackpad transforms into a numpad with
a quick touch of the button. But the Titan is more than its keyboard. Equipped
with a powerful Intel Core i7 CPU and two Nvidia GeForce GTX 980M GPUs in SLI
configuration, it's double the power, double the fun. Best of all, the chassis
allows you to upgrade the GPU, hard drive and RAM, future-proofing your
purchase.

Series proves that affordable doesn't have to be a dirty word. While the sleek
soft-touch chassis will definitely turn heads, it's the solid framerates from
its Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M GPU and over 6 hours of battery life that will get
gamers' attention. Throw in some respectable multitasking power and impressive
audio quality and you've got a laptop that can play with the big boys, without
breaking your bank account.
Gigabyte P25X v2 Rating 4 Starting Price-2199$

mellow. Gigabyte's P25X v2's cheerful marigold frame belies the beast beneath.
Packing a Core i7 processor and a top-of-the-line Nvidia GeForce GTX 880M GPU,
the P25X will play even the most taxing games as smooth as butter. Throw in
more than seven hours of battery life -- during web surfing -- and a crisp
1080p display and you've got a force to be reckoned with.
Aorus X7 Pro-Sync Rating Rating 4 Starting Price-2499$
-The 17-inch Aorus X7 Pro-Sync is
a svelte, lightweight notebook that doesn't just hit the sweet spot between
performance and portability -- it destroys it. Rocking a pair of Nvidia GTX
GeForce 970M GPUs in SLI configuration, the X7 Pro-Sync is one of the most powerful 17-inch notebooks on
the market. The slim device also takes advantage of Nvidia's G-Sync technology,
ensuring smoother graphics and little to no input lag. It's a drop-dead stunner
that packs the potent punch that gamers crave.
Alienware 13 Rating 4 Starting Price-899$
At 4.5 pounds, 12.9 x 9.3 x
1.0~1.1 inches, the Alienware 13 is the thinnest, lightest notebook the company
has ever released. Despite its svelte figure, the Alienware 13 can still power
through some of the most graphically taxing games on the market, thanks to its
Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M GPU. But if you want even better performance, hook the
laptop up to its optional Graphics Amplifier. Harnessing the power of a desktop
GPU, even the monstrous Nvidia GeForce GTX 980M card, the Alienware 13
transforms from formidable to beastly.
