I've had my current laptop for a few years now, and it's getting to the point where it just can't properly run some of the newer gamers coming out these days.
I'd like to get a new gaming PC/Laptop, but I'm on a bit of a budget. It needs to be at least >$1000, but the cheaper the better.
I primarily play MMOs, and an example of one of the newer ones I'd be looking to play on my potential new computer would be The Secret World, and I am also greatly interested in the forthcoming Wildstar. I'd like to be able to have decent looking graphics without sacrificing performance. As it is, right now when I play TSW on my current laptop, I have to have pretty much everything set to low, and things still slow way down when there are too many characters or effects on screen.
I'm leaning toward getting another laptop, simply because I like the ease of mobility with one, but I'm definitely open to the idea of getting a PC if it will mean a cheaper price and/or better potential performance. Worse comes to worse, I just keep my old laptop around for those situations when I'm in need of such mobility.
Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions, guys.

Whilst browsing about on these forums, to see if anyone had asked a question similar to mine, I did come across another post asking about gaming laptops on a budget, and someone in that thread mentioned the Lenovo brand.
I looked up Lenovo laptops and found this. It seems like it's what I'm looking for in terms of price, and sounds like it could also be what I'm looking for in performance, but I still wanted to ask: Does anyone here know much about this brand, or that particular model of laptop? Would it get me the kind of performance I'm looking for?
Thanks, once again, for any advice or suggestions....
