That should run everything fine. However, I recommend you buy a desktop. They are even better at running games and don't overheat. Laptops tend to overheat and lag. Keep that in mind

Agreed; everything should work.

However, games (esp. ones that need high CPU/GPU processing power) should always be played on a desktop; I will never game on a laptop. I just don't play on the go. The major reason is, besides being virtually un-upgradeable, laptops are also very hard to fix by yourself. So, if I do get a laptop, it will mostly be just for work. Plus, I've seen a friend's Alienware constantly overheat, whereas another friend with a regular laptop, but better spects, works just fine.

Just my opinion.

Laptops were never meant for gaming,just FYI.
Alienware has been created as an exception by Dell.But anyhow,they just want to earn money and thats every company's ultimate goal after all.
