Can anyone recommend a laptop that i could potentially use with Maxwell?

I know Dell's are commonly used with Solidworks (needs to work well with Solidworks too):

if you need to run SolidWorks or other openGl based software, i recommend to get a "workstation" laptop with quadro/fireGl card so you don`t run into any display trouble. HP, Lenovo,FujitsuSiemens & dell sell that type
I got a z61p from lenovo with Firegl 5200/256mb a year ago and i`m quite happy with it (1900x1200 screen 8) )
..also when you want to use it for maxwell be sure that it has a good cooling system, some laptops can`t take 24h render. -I know a friend who had an acer and his screen started to wash out at the bottom because it was boiling so much..
