it was actually a custom model from cyberpowersystem (the UK version of cyberpowerpc). Most new laptops come with Windows 8, which I do not want for numerous reasons, so my only choice was to order a custom one and change the pre-installed operating system.
It's actually surprisingly ok for gaming in terms of power/performance, but it takes some real adjustment to get used to a laptop after having used almost only desktops for three years.
