When it comes to gaming laptops its go big or go home.
This is my computer:
https://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultraboo ... ifications Its about a year old now though.
It runs newer games too, although no battlefield 4 on max graphics. Runs nwn without any issues and the OS I'm using is windows 8. Rule of thumb for laptops is go nvidia graphics if you want backwards compatibility as they're better at it in my experience then ATI.
