I'm doing more and more traveling and would like a decent laptop that can play p99, could handle a current gen game if I wanted to play. I've looked at the alienware 13, razr blade, asus rog, acer predator, MSI apache. Don't really want to spend more than $1500 on this.

I need a decent amount of disk space, really want SSD. My buddy told me I'm wasting money if I go with some of the "brand name" laptops like alienware or razr but there's some pretty positive reviews about many of them. I almost bought an alienware around black friday but was told to hold out for newer models. I don't want an annoyingly loud laptop (which is one of the common complaints I've seen about these models), would like a decent battery life, and I don't want a giant 17/18+ inch screen. I have a decent desktop so I don't need it to be a docking system or anything.

Anyone have any experience with these or advice/guidance!?

TLDR: WTB Gaming computer $1000-1500. Looking for SSD, decent disk space, prob 15.6 inch monitor, and want it to be reasonably quiet and easily portable!
