Reply to Good laptops for Traktor?

Hi guys, new to the DJ Techtool community s. Sorry if this question gets asked a lot and if it has been answered feel free to link me to the thread.

So my question is, what are the best laptops for Traktor? I am coming in to some money and I am going to make the switch over to Digital DJing. I already have the gear I am going to get picked out but I am still trying to decide on a laptop. I know most people I see using traktor are using Macbook Pros but I am not a fan of apple. If it is the most optimal way to run traktor I might consider it but I would like to stay away from Macs if I can. The main laptops I have been looking into have been alienware laptops, mainly the Alienware 14. They are powerhouses and would allow me to do some gaming on the side when im not using the laptop to DJ or do school work. Would it be a good option or are there other laptops out there that would be better? I have a pretty large price range but I would rather not go above 1.5k for the laptop.

for people who tldr:
1)No macs unless they are the BEST way to run Traktor
2)Price range up to 1.5K
3)Will be using laptop for college as well as DJing (and possibly gaming)
4)The kit I will be using with it will be a Kontrol Z2 and two Kontrol F1s (possible expansion in the future)
5)Looking into Alienware 14
