There are a few non-alienware brands that can give you real desktop performance in a laptop. Check out offerings from Eurocom/Sager/Clevo. Also, gaming laptops are getting thinner and lighter. Check out the msi gs40 - i7 skylake, nvidia 970gtx, full hd screen, in a 3.5 lb laptop. One thing - gaming cards don't always do perform as well on engineering software like autocad (things may have changed though) . You may be better off looking for something in the nvidia quadro line.
