Need laptop help

[maj0r_pawnage]

alright my cousin is buying a new laptop for school/gaming

his budget is around 1750CAD MAX and since i really dont know about laptops im wondering what will be the best laptop to get for this price

I'd recommend looking for something with a core 2 duo and a go 7600 (mobility x1400 at the very least).

Maybe even try configuring an Alienware?
