I spent a while looking around for a high quality gaming laptop, while at the same time refusing to spend the extra two K that alienware and dell charges.
I came up with Sager.
And I purchased through PCTorque as they had some additional configuration offers (like, going without the OS, getting additional peripherals, etc.) Both Sager and PCTorque offer free lifetime tech support in addition to the warranty period of your choice/purchase.
And the tech support through Sager is performed by the people who configure and build the laptops themselves, not some barely understandable person from India.
