Gaming Laptop Recommendations

So the title says it all. I know everyone is going to say "well why not a desktop", the simple answer to that is that I need a laptop. I go to LAN parties quite often, like every weekend. I have to take frequent trips to and from the states. And most importantly, I already have a desktop lol. I have been looking at the Alienware M17x and if your going to sit here and bash Alienware, please just leave, I have already bought an Alienware in the past, I know what I'm getting into. Coming into a forum just to say "X product sucks" does nothing good. 

So here we go;

What I need-

Gaming, lots of gaming.

Preferably 1080p screen, I wouldn't mind going down to 900p because I want some longevity

The gpu I don't wanna go any lower than 765m

At least 17'' screen

Under $2k

International shipping

 

What I've looked at-

Alienware M17x

i7 4700mq - GTX 860 or 765m - Either 900p or 1080p screen. Not sure what combo would be best, was thinking 1080p with the 765m?

 

GS70 StealthPro-024
i7-4700HQ - 1080p - GTX 870M 3G

Only problem here is that I don't know MSI very well. Anyone vouch for them? 

 

All other recommendations are welcome. I'm leaning toward the StealthPro. Thanks everyone for your input!

I'm no expert, but I'm seeing LinusTechTips raving about some Asus gaming notebook. I think it was about 2.2k though, I'd check it out nonetheless, it might help.

I would defiantly recommend the asus rog c750jz looks like a really good laptop for the money. How ever it is a bit bulky.

Yeah I was just looking at that one, I'm really liking it. And bulky is fine, I just need power lol

Edit: I also found the G750JS.. Just has a little less ram and a 870m.
