Default Light Gaming Laptop?

I'm looking for a light gaming laptop that looks nice also that runs under than $1000. May be playing CSS at most.

It will do very well, it's one of Nvidia's better mobile GPUs. You may also want to look into these two:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834220566
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834115681

Both use a GT240M GPU and the aforementioned one uses a GT220M GPU.

Got a better one for you. They only sell these refurbished now, but it's called the G50VM-X1. I've got one coming in tuesday, and it's got a 9700m gt which is more powerful than the gt 220m and the gt240m. I got it from a seller called ecom electronics. They have an ebay store and a regular site.

Edit: Also, you could use the extra cash to upgrade the processor in it and make it a really beast gaming pc.

Click on condition and this is what you'll find:

•Remanufactured products are items that have been returned for different reasons (defective, exchange, open box).
•The units are inspected to ensure that they meet the same quality standards as new products, and include the complete original factory installed software.
•They operate as any other "new" product.
•Remanufactured products come with a warranty and are fully tested.
•Remanufactured products may also come from 3rd party sources (retailers, distributors, wholesalers) that have been thoroughly tested, including an extensive examination of all hardware components, and will include a warranty.

The 9700m GT only beats the G210M by a shader clock speed of 50 MHz. This Sony has a G210M and DDR3.

That's not what notebook check says.

http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-...GT.3986.0.html

Look at the ranking on the right. I'd say that it's pretty accurate. It's probably accurate to about + or - 3 cards.

Oh wait, actually, I lied, go with that GT 240 the guy posted. I was looking at the 9700m gts.
