Hey, was just wondering, thinking of getting a dell xps 15.
With 8gb ram, 6th gen i7 processor, and a 256 SSD, and an NVIDA GeForce 960M With 2GB DDR5
I don't necessarily need a gaming beast. But a laptop which i could game on, would be nice
Advice?

How much and does it need to be a laptop?

lets say 2000 US tops And it does have to be a laptop

That's amazingly overpriced and why?

Hey dude, actually there's a far more better laptop for half the price.

search for MSI GE62 Apache Gaming Laptop. Price's only 1,149. You'll save $850 with almost same (or better) specs.

MSI GE72 6QF Apache Pro - GE72-6QF81FD
This is by far the best Laptop you can get in the 1200-1300$ range. Featuring the best mobile i7 out there, 8GB of RAM and a GTX 970M, which is equal to a desktop GTX 960.

Never buy anything from Dell. They are just scamming you.

Zen: UH, thats just my max budget. and for portability reasons.

Sam and Monguis: Uh, well, where I live its hard to get laptops by MSI, Razor, Origin etc...
Just your standard brands Dell, HP, Asus etc. :<

Can you import it from the US for some extra cash or are taxes way too high from your country? (I have a friend who was born in south africa and they have a luxury fee for fucking school books)

Well not too sure, don't think I can :/
I may have an aunt visiting from the states, and she could maybe bring it along.

aren't MSI laptops mainly for gaming though?

thats the same as asking "aren't Audis only for driving 200Km/h and more?.
This should answer your question.
