I'm looking to get a nice gaming laptop. I'm a fairly picky person though. I want a laptop that's going to keep my happy for a long time and I don't want anything that will continually annoy me the whole time I own it.

Things I'm really looking for:

1. Really would like something fairly thin and light but weight isn't as important as being thin.

2. Preferably a 17.3 inch screen but I can live with a 15.6 inch and obviously needs to be at least 1080p.

3. Needs to look pretty nice. Don't want anything too flashy though.

4. Really want an SSD.

5. Backlit keyboard would be nice but not required.

6. Need a pretty nice CPU, preferably i7.

7. GPU performance isn't vital to me as most of my games aren't very demanding but something with a GTX 860M or better would be best.

8. Touchscreen would be great to have also.

9. Preferably under $1500USD.

I think that's everything. I've been looking at the Lenovo Y70 touch and it covers pretty closely all of my requirements but I'd like to see if anyone has any better suggestions.
