Canadian Gaming Laptop

I am looking for a gaming laptop that has a great graphics card, (GeForce 9800M GTX or GeForce 8800M GTX)

The card does not need to be in SLI because i do not generally play at extremely high resolutions (and the cost of it in SLI is high and i believe one of the cards listed above is better than two of any model under it)

I live in Canada so i need to get a Canadian laptop which rules out sager and a lot of other good USA makers.

I am hoping to get a customizable laptop but if there is a good pre configured laptop i could go with that.

I do not need a desktop so comments like "get a desktop" would not help

Another vote for SAGER NP9262.

No
alot of stores ship to canada like www.xoticpc.com

Yeah, resellers will ship to Canada even if Sager itself won't. Along with them, I'd also suggest Killer Notebooks, but you might have to talk to them about getting one under 3 grand, theirs tend to be slightly above that even when base. More costly, but more effective, in my opinion at least.

thank you all for your responced, i am looking into all the places you have suggested
