Quite heavy both in terms of weight and its price, this laptop is certainly the best, only if you can afford it. It scored a massive 13500 points in 3DMark06 and why wouldn’t it? It is loaded with a whopping 8GB of ram and two Geforce GTX 280Ms. The only negative part to it, apart from the heavy price tag, is its low battery life; averaging just a bit more than 1 hour.

With a surprisingly low price tag, ASUS G73JH is the best gaming laptop out there right now. Its design is clearly inspired by some stealth fighter jet and looks good to the eye. With 3DMark06 score of almost 13000, this laptop is clearly a no brainer especially when it comes to exceptional performance at an average cost. Its battery also averages about 1 hour and 40 minutes under standard tests. which is again good for such a high end laptop.
