Hey everyone, I'm looking to buy a new laptop around $850-$1350 that I will use for gaming (Diablo 3, GW 2, Wow) and work (extensive AutoCad and photoshop). After quite a bit of research I have it narrowed down to three options.

The Msi Gx60, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009H8OA0C/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B009H8OA0C&linkCode=as2&tag=hubpages00b7e-20

The Sager Np9150, http://www.sagernotebook.com/index.php?page=product_customed&model_name=NP9150

The Lenovo Y580, http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/builder.workflow:Enter?sb=:000001C9:0000393A:#.UJqWf2_A8yo

Basically I'm wondering what you guys think would be the best overall choice considering my needs, "bang for the buck", and overall reliability/ build quality. My main concerns are that the gtx660m wont be able to handle the games I play well enough (hoping for high settings). With the msi I have heard that the CPU underperforms compared to the intel ivybridge and I dont know how significant that is. And as far as Sager I'm not sure about the reliabilty/quality since i don't know anyone that has one and I heard they have audio problems.

Let me know what you guys think and let me know if I have missed a laptop that may be a better option. Thanks
