HP Pavilion 17.3" Laptop
Quad Core AMD A8-5550M, 2.1 GHZ to 3.1 GHZ with Turbo
4GB DDR3. (Its 2-slot so I plan to add another 4GB stick.)
750GB HDD @ 5400 RPM
AMD Radeon HD 8550G
Windows 8

With the above specifications, the HP looks like a laptop capable of light to moderate gaming. AMD graphics card and AMD processor might be a little behind compared to Nvidia and Intel combination, but it should be sufficient if you are not going into the power hungry games.

I want a fast laptop to play games and CD ROM and watch movies I was thinking Dell or Hp pavilion what do you think?

The HP Pavilion isn't really a gaming laptop. They're great for watching movies and light gaming but trying to play some of the newer games would strain it. As for a Dell, might be a better choice but personally, I've never been a Dell person. Their XPS series are better for gaming but the Studio series are better for movies.Try checking out Asus, they have some good PCs so they might have some good laptops.

What kind of laptop should you get for gaming?

You should get one with a lot of RAM and a really good video card. If you are heavy into gaming, then get one that is built as a gaming machine. If you are just going to do light gaming, you don't need to get the latest Alienware, but gaming laptops are always going to cost more than laptops you only need for writing papers or Facebook. :) The processor is also important. One thing you might want to do is take your favorite game and look up the specs needed for it, and compare them to the laptops you are considering. As long as it is powerful enough to play your favorite game, you should be good.
