I want a gaming laptop that can play things like Dragon age origins, skyrim, world of Warcraft, without lag. What would be a good laptop for those games for under 800$?
Answer
Gaming needs really good speed so you can play games without any delay. The laptop which I think has good processing speed and comes under your budget is Acer Aspire V3-571G-9686. It has a good combination of superior features and also affordable price.
It has Screen Size of1 5.6 inches which is really ideal size to have. The most important is its Processor2.2 GHz Core i7-3615QM which is really fast and efficient and will be helpful in playing games. It RAM6 GB SDRAM and Hard Drive 500 GB SATA. It has Graphics Coprocessor NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M which will give you superior graphics and It has Average Battery Life of 4.5 hours. So overall it is really good laptop.
Look at it for further details:

I would like you to see this comment from an actual user as well because the better would be explain by the actual user that how it really performs:

Looking for a decent affordable gaming laptop?
Ahmed
I've recently decided to throw my old laptop away and buy a new one since it's no longer able to keep up with the newest games.
Since I only have $750-900 to spend, I don't expect it to be exceptional. I'm looking for a laptop that has a decent mid range graphics card and a least 6 gb of ram.
As for the brand, I've been using dell and hp laptops for a while now and I haven't had any problems with them, but I've heard that Acer and lenovo are also quite decent. Sony and Toshiba are also preferred, but I know they tend to be a bit pricey.
P.S: I know gaming is best done on a PC but I already have a decent one and I'm just looking for a laptop to carry around because I move around a lot.
Oh and I also live in Canada so I'd prefer to be able to buy the laptop from a Canadian retailer (I've bought stuff from Europe before though so this isn't required)

ASUS laptops. Newegg has a location in Canada.

Brand buying advise
You get what you pay for. Systems with high end parts with low prices are to be viewed with suspicion. They have to cut corners somewhere to get the price down. What cost you less today is going to cost you more tomorrow.
Apple makes a good quality laptop. The problem comes when it requires service or minor upgrades. It is near impossible to do anything with them. They even glue the battery and hard drive down so you can not change it. They solder the ram to the logic board so you can not increase it. They lock up most of the software so your stuck with what they approve.
Lenovo has serious stand behind their product problems. They bought IBM PC division and proceeded to drive the quality of the system into the ground. Their customer service is well below par. They even makes Dell customer service look good. The last and final thing to remember about them is they are a Chinese Government own company. It is up to you if you want to trust them.
Toshiba, Panasonic, Sony should be avoided because of their heavy modification of Windows and the drivers. If you remove some of the bloat they install, you can cripple the system.
Acer, Gateway, and eMachines should be avoided period. Low end system that are driving the race to the bottom.
Dell once made a good system and fell from grace. They are now struggling to regain their place in the market. Customer service is one of many problems with this company.
Alienware are glorified Dells and are more name then product. Priced extremely high for what you get. They do perform but you can get the same for less by looking around, just not packaged to be eye candy to the gamers.
Samsung has a history of using cheap parts in critical areas. Capacitors has been one area Samsung has a known history of going cheap, causing units to fail early. For that reason I would avoid them.
ASUS and HP do not modify Windows as bad as the other manufacturers. They have excellent build quality. They might add a lot of bloat but they also makes it easy to get rid of it.
Ultrabooks are the higher end of Wintel laptops but they have some of the same concerns as Apple. They make it next to impossible to change any hardware in them. Service of them will have to be done by the manufacturers. With most of them, you can not change your own battery or hard drive. They are designed to catch your eye but they are not any more special then other laptops except for the fact that they are slim or thin. Your paying for it being thin and slim. For the money your going to spend on it you can buy a much better laptop with more power.
Hybrids are the worse of the worse. The flip or detachable touch screens are just a disaster waiting to happen.
Never buy an All In One. They are far worst then laptops of any kind to service and they have a higher failure rate.
Choose wisely.
