I play FF14, GW2, and Wildstar all on maximum graphics settings on my 17.3" HP. I am not technobabble literate, but from what I know, its Windows 10 (I bought it at the beginning of 8) has dual graphics AMD cores, and like a terabyte of space. It cost me around $750. It's a mid-grade graphic design laptop that I bought when I thought I would teach myself to draw barazoku on tablet rather than paper. Which was a pipe dream.
A dedicated gaming laptop will cost you around $2000 if you go for the be all end all (alienware derp)
A valid point, but it is important to note that playing hardware-intensive games on laptops not built to withstand that sort of constant strain can be detrimental to the system as a whole in the long run. Gaming laptops are designed from the ground up to be able to deal with the strain of hardware-intensive games and still last as long as possible.
