Before I start giving advice, can you fill this out?
================ Custom Builders =======================
http://www.xoticpc.com/
This is the company I bought a "SAGER NP9170" which I love and can upgrade easily on my own. Many options, amazing customer support and VERY good build quality.
http://www.malibal.com/
Very high class builders, very good builds and has several options.
http://www.pro-star.com/
Many options and several different brands, not as flashy but solid builds.
=====================================================
For 4000$ you could get a a laptop that supports SLI (2 gfx cards) and a high end i7 Extreme. I suggest getting one card now then saving the money for when the TITAN cards go mobile. Malibal offers a dual gfx laptop.
