  I can recommend a few laptop but to play all eps on laptop will run in the $1000 price range, One choice could be the one colton posted above.
  
  Do you have a budget? What country are you in?

  No budget at the moment, just seeing what my options are. I'm in Ireland and I'd like to avoid anything above €900 where possible. Any idea of what specs I'd need so I can look around at home? All I know is that I need around a 2.6 GHz processor, at least 8 GBs of RAM and that I'm to avoid Intel graphic cards like the plague.

  If your going laptop
  
  Video Card Nvidia GTX 860m or 960m DDR5 ( dont get a video card with DDR3), Processor should be i7 HQ or MQ and 8gb computer ram. Laptops like this should come with 1tb hard drive space.
  
  ASUS ROG or MSI or an ACER Nitro are computers to look at in your area. Is PC world in Ireland?

  Your welcome. You would be fine with that cyberpower custom i posted above and would not have to change anything on it.
  
  PC world does have acer Nitro but it's more expensive than the cyberpower and you would be better of with a custom

  Unfortunately you cannot use the UK PC World website for buying laptops in Ireland, and the cheapest Acer Nitro in the Ireland PC World is €1,500. For reference, €900 is about equal to ~£660.
  
  EDIT: Here is an Acer Nitro model for ~€980 - this is probably the best I can recommend for max settings in TS3 with all EPs close to your budget.

  I hope this helps and keep simming,
