750 $ or less laptop

Boy, you gonna need at least $1000 to even start thinking of a laptop that plays games. Plus, not only about the RAM, but how heat is exerted(a laptop is your tower and monitor combined) and the GPU.

Since when is minesweeper on Steam?

Uhm, is there any reason for not building a desktop gaming PC instead?

If it has to be a laptop:

I got a fairly good Dell for like 800 with a 4GB Nvidia card.
Doubt you can find something much better for that price.

This one you can get it for under 800,
DELL inspiron 15 7559
RAM:8GB x 1 => The 8GB RAM is one slot so you can easily upgrade it to 16GB whenever you want.
i7-6700Q => 3.5GHz Turbo
Nvidia GTX960m with 4GB VRAM

It's functional if you don't expect to run things at max.
Don't play games on the battery,

I was hoping for some recommendations.
Turn around, come back when you have extra $250ish, or when you've decided to buy a desktop instead.

Can you get a laptop that'll run games for $750 or less? Sure you could. But expect the following:
1.) You'll need an external cooling pad.
2.) Battery life while gaming will be nearly non-existent.
3.) You'll have to turn down settings on the vast majority of games, unless they're about ten years old or older.
4.) You'll be lucky to get very computationally-intensive games to run at all. No DayZ for you, unless you're content with low framerates.
5.) It'll be outdated very quickly. Expect it to struggle with games in a couple of years.

simple rule for laptop, for the same spec : laptop -> 2 x pc price, so you want a pc under 375 $, well good luck :S
