Hey guys, looking for gaming/college laptop, please help

1.No preferred brand, but for some reason the shops near where I live don't have Dell laptops.
2. Budget: Around 2000-3000
3. Usage : gaming, web browsing, college assignments, etc
4. Size: no preference

I've been told the msi gp60 is a good model, but it seems like got so many different models? Would that be the best for my budget?

*Prices in RRP. As you can see here, the Nvidia 840M is actually a very common and entry-level GPU.. so if you are really into gaming, it might be a better idea to save more and opt for a higher end GPU  icon_rolleyes.gif

Thanks so much! Actually, from the benchmarks and reviews, the 840m doesn't seem too bad. By my standards at least tongue.gif looks like I'm going for the msi one.
