REVIEW CENTER : LAPTOPS : GAMING LAPTOPS (17-INCH)
 
     
You searched for Gaming laptops (17-inch) costing less than $20000 sorted by Score.
Editor's take: The beasts of the notebook world, when splurging for these 17-inch monsters you should max out on the specs, lest your $3-4K investment become outdated in six months. Opt for the fastest possible processor—right now, Intel’s Core 2 Duo Extreme—and at least 2GB of RAM. Going north of 2GB is a good idea only if you’re running the x64 version of Windows Vista. The top mobile graphics solution right now is Nvidia’s GeForce 8800 GTX in an SLI configuration—that is, two GPUs running in tandem. Dell’s XPS M1730 is an impressive example of what can be done in this space, although Alienware, VoodooPC and others offer compelling models. Look to spend around $4,000 for a machine that’s completely tricked out.
