Best Gaming Laptops Under $1500

So what can you get out of a laptop in this price range in terms of performance? You can get a top performance laptop with a quad-core installed. This is the heart of your gaming machine, and it will be quite useful in games since there are a lot of calculations that need to be done.

You'll also get a high amount of system RAM, somewhere in the range of 4-6GB. This is great since most games only demand 2-4 GB to run properly. Think of this as an investment in the future, since games that will come out will need more out of your gaming system.

A great video card is the next thing on the list. It won't be an onboard video card, like regular laptops carry, but a dedicated one with its own system memory. This will allow you to crank up the quality settings to high during game play and allow you to view true high definition content.
