    Due to the need to be able to move the machine around i've settled on buying a gaming laptop instead of a desktop and i'm looking for advice from you good folks please:)

    The budget is 1100 euro or there abouts, although i'd be open to spending more/less depending on getting decent bang for buck.

    I have a reasonable idea of what the desktop components can do but when it comes to the mobile versions i'm a bit lost so any advice on that end would be great, and also any recommendations on where i should be looking to buy from thanks.

    Via saveonlaptops.co.uk which was suggested on another thread, how would this stack up in games like BF4, BF3, Fallout etc?
    I'm having a hard time researching mobile GPU's i can't really find any good comparisons with desktop versions, what sort of FPS could i expect playing the above games with the spec listed above?
