Ive been searching around for the perfect laptop for me for about 10 hours no and Im having a kind of tough time.
Here's the usage Im looking to get out of this laptop. I want a good battery life so I can easily bring it around the office and home. But I also want to be able to sit down at a desk and play all the high graphics video games.
This is my game plan. Get a laptop with awesome memory and processor and just a simple onboard video card. Then get a ViDock2 so I can hook it up so I can play all my high graphic video games. My logic here is that I can save battery life since Im not going to have the crazy graphics card and when I do want to play those crazy games I can just sit down, plug in the ViDock2 and play them with ease.

Questions I have,
Does DDR3 RAM use more battery then DDR2 RAM?
While Im browsing through the processors some say 35 watt and some say 25 watt, but the 25 watt can show better Ghz and cache then the 35 watt. Does the battery usage depend on the watt or the Ghz of the processor?
------------
Oh and I would like to add that Im looking for around 4+ hours battery life. Im looking to get DDR3 RAM and the P9700 processor but Im not really sure if thats what I should really be getting for the usage Im looking for. Im looking to spend no more then $700-$900 on the laptop then $380(can vary) on the ViDock2. Total budget $1300. So guys, what do you think is the best laptop for me?
