Hey guys im looking into buying my first laptop. Its going to be mostly used for webbrowsing and watching movies and occasional gaming(League of legends, WoW, Minecraft). I have a budget around $700-800 including shipping taxes, Im located in the south jersey area. Here is what im looking for:

Display: 17inch@ 1920x1080
GPU: Needs to be able to play those game on max settings(isnt asking much)
HDD: at least 500gb+
CPU:i5 4670 or better
Ram:8gb

If im being unreasonable let me know lol. Again im new to the laptop field. Oh yeah the purchase will be in the next month.
 
I think your best bet is Lenovo IdeaPad Y410, or whatever it's called.
 
Yeah, check out the IdeaPad Y-series. If you can find a good coupon or wait for a deal you might squeak in under $800 for the 15" version (no 17" option).
 
How much would my options open if I set to $1000 price point?
