This Eluktronics Pro-X P650HS-G Ultra Performance VR Ready Laptop would be perfect for what you want. It has all the power you want- a powerful new Intel i7-7700HQ Quad Core, massive 64 GB RAM, 8GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GRAPGICS CARD, fast 1000 GB SSD and a beautiful 15.6" Full HD IPS LED Anti-Glare Display (1920 x 1080) display.. In addition, it has a great build quality, good heat management etc..

Thanks. GTX 1070 on this laptop is what's doing the magic.

I would recommend this Eluktronics Pro-X P650HS-G
because it comes with everything you need, i7 quad core CPU which is one of the best in the market and great for your usage, 16GB of ram for smooth multitasking, Good SSD storage of 256 GB for faster boot up and loading, Full HD IPS screen with G-SYNC which is a must have for this price range, high build quality, good battery life, very good heat management, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 GPU that should be able to handle the games you mentioned on high to ultra settings with very good FPs, and it is within your budget.

This Eluktronics Pro-X P650HS-G Ultra Performance VR Ready Laptop would be a great performer and of course, it doesnt have that fussy gaming appearance...It has an excellent display , great heat management and build quality and will give you the performance you want but at 6 pounds, I am not quite sure its light enough for you.

This MSI GS63VR078 STEALTH PRO-078 is much lighter and has some wonderful specs inclusive of that 120 HZ display. You could also look at this ASUS ROG Zephyrus GX501VS-XS71.

Thanks for the recommendation. As a comparison how do you feel about this compared to the ProStar?
