Best Gaming Laptops under $1000

What games are you planning on using.

In my honest opinion none buy a desktop. Laptops put off a lot of heat fast and the more of a stress some of the newer games put the systems under you are not going to like it.

From what I can remember Asus laptops are some of the better ones that disperse heat the best.
 
With what Rustys has said in mind, there are still some good choices depending on the games you want to play.

A list of games that you are planning to play would make it easier to pick the perfect option for you.

However right off of the top of my head, I would suggest one of these two choices -

Acer Nitro 5 Gaming Laptop - At right around $800 this is a great entry level gaming laptop. It has good airflow, but still does get hot after alot of use like any laptop. It has a Nvidia 1050ti 4GB for graphics and a i5-7300HQ(2.5GHz) for the CPU. This one leaves room in your budget for upgrades like more RAM.

The other one -

MSI’s GL62M 7REX-1896US Gaming Laptop -
This laptop is also a great gaming laptop and about mid tier. Core i7-7700HQ (2.8 - 3.8 GHz). For the CPU and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti 4G GDDR5 for graphics.
It comes with only 8GB of RAM though. It also comes with a small SSD drive for the OS and a 1TB Hard drive for storage.
This one is right under your budget aswell.

Something else I would suggest for a gaming laptop would be an addon cooling pad. These are what will make the laptop last longer. Like Rustys has said above, gaming laptops do heat up ALOOOOT. These cooling pads help with keeping things cool and disperses excess heat coming from the bottom.

I personally suggest a pad with atleast 3 fans.

Something like these two would be perfect -
