I'd prefer nothing too far upwards of ~2000.

An option, 7870m is incredibly good.

An potentially better option in terms of graphics, downstep in terms of CPU, but it is cheaper and an MSI laptop.

An APU basically integrates a graphical chip inside of the processor, it's worked very well for budget laptops.
That will run Blockland about 30fps medium settings with the GPU on board, it's a 6570 or similar.

oh ok. i got ya.
i'm probably not even gonna buy it but w/e. how much cheaper do you think laptops will get by early july? i'm gonna ask for a $500 or less laptop
Mr.jacksaunt:
If you're looking to game, you probably won't find a great one for the price. My laptop was around $600 and was amazing for the price. I'd recommend you surf newegg a bunch leading up to when you have the money.
Currently, the least expensive but best laptop I could find is this

It might go out of stock in a few months, but there will definitely be better laptops out by then. It really varies a lot.
