Help finding budget gaming laptop
I’d appreciate some assistance in finding a budget gaming laptop from a reliable source. I can pop into BestBuy (who enjoys that anyway!) or Canada Computers but are there alternatives? I’m look for something to play older games, like strategy games as wargames, but I’m not bothered about the latest games. I also want to do some development, likely using Eclipse+Java and also use docker-compose in VirtualBox. Maybe I’ll also mess around with Unity3 or the Unreal engine.
A reasonable spec is: 16 or 32Gb 512Gb+ SSD Decent discrete GFX card but not the latest Current or previous gen AMD or Intel 2+ USB 3 ports FHD monitor Nothing too heavy though I won’t be travelling Budget is probably $1100+tax
Is that reasonable? Thoughts and suggestions greatly appreciated.

I can’t seem to edit my post so I’ll post here that I’ve looked at a Dell G15 and the Lenovo Loq looks interesting.
I forgot to mention that I’d like a 14”, 15” or maybe a 16” screen. Ideally a 15”. I don’t care about fancy looks or multi colour keyboard lighting. I’m too boring for that!
I've heard pretty bad things about the G15, but haven't looked into it much, so grain of salt and all that.
I have a tuf gaming laptop, it was pretty affordable, and works pretty good, it's an older model, and I had to do a fresh install to get rid of the digital STDs, but I'm quite happy with it.
Ugh, that reminds me of how much crap companies pre-install.
Yeah, it's an issue. Tbf, it was running fine with all the stuff installed, I wanted my 3gb back though.
