Hello i am new to these forums but have recently joined because i am looking at buying a new laptop for college and need something that will be able to play games well and program games. ive been searching for a laptop now for a while but think if i had a few others with some ideas i could a better deal for what i need.

I have no more than $900 to spend

any suggestions?

Like I posted to the other guy....check out what ASUS has to offer. They have a great lineup in that price range with decent graphics cards.

You got that for $865 with the 9700M GTS? Not bad at all. Is that deal still available though?

Sorry for the late reply didnt see this thread updated till now. Well bestbuy (I usually dont even look there to purchase laptops) had a sale on this particular model which was up for like a week but currently dead. It was actually $999+tax on there site but when I went in-store they knocked it off a little more for $865 (not sure why) so I took the deal. Anyways, you can see it here.
