Ultraportable and gaming doesnt usually go hand in hand because of the amount of heat generated.

My only advise, get something with beefy cooling. It will last you a long time.

Also, if you game heavily, make sure to change the thermal pad and thermal paste at least once a year and use the good stuff

Edit: at 7K you will have great selection with tons of cooling.

Also, try to get models with removable battery. When you game, use direct power connection with the batteries popped out and when work just plunk in the battery.
