I am looking to get a new laptop but don’t know what to get. That is why i would like some help. I am looking to get a laptop with screen size between 13 inches and 15 inches. I want is to have Intel’s 5th gen cpu and i want it to have at least either a 970m or a 980m. I also want to be able to upgrade it down the line as well. I know some companies are going the same route as apple where they make it hard for you to up for people to upgrade. Budget i would like to stay under 2k if possible. I am also a college student.
By "upgrade" what do you specifically mean? Laptops are already quite restricted in terms of upgrades(RAM, HDD/SSD).
With that aside it sounds like you are after a medium-high end gaming laptop and most of these style laptops support ram upgrades and the such. Its mainly the ultra book category that is being gimped by apple style construction, so just look up some showdown reviews, pick one you like, check that it is upgradeable. Bam, done.

i recommend asus, msi or sager laptops
they usually are well-built
What i mean by upgrade is i want to be able to upgrade the ram and the hard drive in the future.
Which do you think is better msi or sager?
both are great :)
sager is usually cheaper(no os), but msi has some nice keyboards and speakers
but it varies depending on the model
but if you want something cool and powerful then just go for 17inch asus g751 series
or msi gt72 they offer great upgradability
