With your budget, you can get AW18 if you're willing to wait. Just make sure it is gtx980m 8gb variant. 4gb is okay but you can opt for better.
You can also get ILLEGEAR S5 for slim gtx980m model.
Or go MXM type which is RS or RX series. Those are all within your budget. RS and RX series are using 8gb variant of gtx980m.
Or if you're more hardcore, get D series for desktop CPU. Also MXM type.
Those laptop confirm can let you play all game on ultra settings 1080p. (4k is not possible for mobile especially for non-sli)

P/S: Just don't get MSI because it is too overpriced. Everything offered by MSI is in AW18 and ILLEGEAR also. But you can still get it if you're willing to pay smile.gif

Thank you for the reply. I was considering illegear but their display is too washed according to some reviews I like the performance though don't get me wrong but the display/screen is something you won't get to change as easily.

Performance is top priority but if you have a display that doesn't show every single detail at top notch not even the best gpu can fix the monitors flaw. You might say well buy a monitor than but that beats the purpose of getting a gaming laptop in the first place.

Tldr: would consider illegear if not for cheap display. Leaning more towards Dell. And thanks for advice :-)
