Went WAY overboard in the end:

Standard Metabox Design
15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) LED Matte
Nvidia GeForce GTX 860M with 2GB GDDR5 VRAM
Intel Core i7-4710MQ Processor (6M Cache up to 3.50 GHz)
16GB 1600MHZ Memory
Plextor 256GB M5 PRO XTREME SATA3 SSD
1TB 7200RPM HDD
802.11ABGN / Bluetooth
Blu-ray Reader / DVD +- R/RW DL
Windows 8.1 64BIT
2 Year Platinum Metabox Onsite Pickup

I really wanted to sub out the Blu-Ray player for a 95% Matte Gamut screen but that was a degree of customisation they couldn't do without adding hundreds to the (~1700) price.

The RAM was a free upgrade from 8 to 16 so I was like fine.

Here is hoping its awesome!

god i know that feeling all too well,  i do a lot of travelling for work and wanted something beefier to play some games in my downtime rather than being bored in airports and hotels,  ended up buying a eurocom x7 and spending twice my initial budget

 

final specs for it are as shown : http://i.imgur.com/qK7kyrI.png

 

plays absolutely beautifully though,  and i havent regretted the spend even once,  you'll feel the same way when you throw a modern game at it and it playa it smooth as silk,  theres something about a laptop spitting out smooth high end graphics that has a weird air of awesomeness about it. 

You got SLI in a laptop?

Dude that's beastly
