Off Topic Better Gaming Laptop J4x has written
There's not a big different between those, but I'd go for the MSI.
What does the msi have that the toshiba doesnt

Better quality, I mean MSI is better than toshiba.
And I'm better than you. Your theory is false, and shall remain false.
Asus is shit, Alienware is Apple clone (shitty and expensive). Do not spend your money on that shit, it sucks.
@ J4x:
Toshiba has better performance, sir.
@ Corvallis5:
Go for Toshiba, don't listen to these fools. Word of advice.
Specs are:
3 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9600
Can't remember proc, but it was dual core and about 3GHz
Screen resolution 1680x1050
I have bought it on a sale without operating system for <3000 PLN (~1000$)
And installed Window 7 Ultimate on it
Sample FPS:
Devil May Cry 4 - resolution 1680x1050, details - highest, antyaliasing x4 - ~60 FPS
Counter-Strike: Source - resolution 1680x1050, other options unchanged - 80 FPS
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - don't know how to check FPS, but runs smoothly even with Winamp, Skype, Chrome and uTorrent in background
Gothic 3 - tested both only Gothic 3 and the extenstion, works with no problems, but only after installing patch
Other samples:
works fine with Chrome, Skype, uTorrent and two VMs in VirtualBox (Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7)
When I'll find the manual, I'll give you the model name and more details. Anyway I highly recommend going out of Alienware and Dell - you pay 300% of real price just for a logo. Look for something not well known, check specs, not logos
[EDIT] Specs, not speds. But speeds too

Sorry for asking so many questions, the reason I want a laptop is because I need it for school. But I also want to play games.
One last question:
Which one is better
http://www.amazon.com/MSI-S...DIA+GeForce+GTX+660M
Or
http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Satellite-S855-S5268-15-6-Inch-Laptop/dp/B0088L1A84/ref=sr_1_3?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1343261280&sr=1-3
Don't worry about the price

The 2nd one, since the processor is faster and the gpu's are ~ the same.

I Think samsung is better!
It's almost the worst laptop manufacturer.

@ Geez: That laptop wasn't worth a thousand bucks. Max would be around 500. You got ripped off.
You mean 300,i bought my gaming pc for 500 on a 50% off.
it appears the cores they come with are exactly the same
the msi has faster memory reading (stuff loads noticeably faster)
the msi has a better graphics card, though how much better it is is arguable
This is a video of bf3 on ultra with the radeon hd 7670, but if you dissable the msaa you will get 40+ framerates, for some reason the msaa and the shadows lower the fps in the ati cards a lot for some reason, and as for the 660m, it's a lot better, so i'd go with the msi.
