Getting a New Gaming Laptop- Recs?

Thanks for the input

Yeah, im not gonna be playing crazy-intensive games all the time, but I'd like to be able to play at least most current games at a decent fps. And I know, desktop>>>>laptop, but I need the mobility and the portability is a huge sell for me. I currently have an ASUS gaming laptop and it works fine, but the processor (i5) isn't enough for what I need it for now.

What makes you think this?

Be careful when upgrading because of the processor. Most of the times the CPU is not a bottle neck, the GPU is. Of course there are exceptions, like if you're planning on playing supreme commander 5v5 or something like that, but they are few. Besides simulations and some RTSes (in some situations), I can't think of many games which would warrant more than an i5.
