Theres an Asus someone is thinking of selling for 500$ in the market place. The screen has some dead pixels so buy a new screen with the other 100$.

For that much money you're not going to be able to find anything that plays it well except for an older laptop with 5870m like the g73.
Price check on Asus G73 Laptop

To give you an idea of modern graphics cards that compete with the 5870m, its around the level of a 7690m XT, gt640m or gt 650m, for 600$ your looking at probably a 635m tops.
