I am no expert, so take my comments with a grain of salt, LOL.
I no longer use laptops for flight sim gaming...I have burnt out (2) laptops graphics cards over the past 5 years. While they make the high end graphics cards that can handle the game...in my opinion, they have a hard time dissipating the heat generated under long periods of time, like in gaming. The mobile graphics cards also tended to not update their drivers for gaming as much as desktops. I could be wrong about it....my (2) laptops were high end machines designed for engineering CAD programs, so they were more business oriented graphics cards then specific gaming cards.
The long term heat dissipation and build up of dust at the heat sink (which is hard to keep clean) made me buy a desktop for CloD.
I know they make gaming laptops, and that might be what you are looking into, I am just suspect of their performance based on my experiences.
