Hey I wonder what kind of laptop is best for gaming, and that has a great cooling system ( all laptops I had in my life had problems with cooling around after a year).

So far I have read that Alienware is one of the best atm but I feel like I pay alot just for the design

and then there is Origin EON MSI laptops....



Looking for your suggestions.

You sure you want a laptop? just asking because for $3000 you could get a lot better in a desktop PC.
 
Do you really need laptop? And do you need to spend 3k on laptop?
$1500 - 2000 gaming laptop are good enough. Personally don't see to spend extra $1000 for the extra improvement.

Essentially asking the same question as I did. Kinda pointless right. Its not about improvement, its about whether the OP REALLY needs mobility. If not, its better to get (even a small form factor) PC>

If your set on a laptop get that, but like you said your old laptop has heat issues. No matter what laptop you get it will always have heat issues especially on gaming, your talking 70-80c on high end games, not to mention the noise. And especially something with 6 cores and 3gb sli gpus, that will get hot. Due to their compact nature and design of heatsinks.

Id agree with many of the comments, if i were you id build a desktop. For 3k you could build a seriously mean machine and much much better than any laptop of that price. it would last a massive amount of time. And it wouldnt get hot because you could watercool it. Put a better cpu and graphics in.

You may find you get bored of the laptop because you couldnt play games on your lap, it would be very uncomfortable and overheat. You would have to use it on a table or desk anyway because of this.

So unless your really really set and can put up with the noise, heat and the fact you couldnt use it on anything but a table or desk anyway... Id really consider a desktop.
