What's your budget? The usual answers involve workstations like the Dell Precision line and Lenovo's P-series. There will always be some level of throttling if you want portability and power-efficiency. But if you want a desktop in a laptop chassis, battery be damned, there is Sager, Clevo, and their many ODMs/resellers: Origin PC (now under Corsair), Maingear, Eurocom, Digital Storm, Falcon Northewest, among others.

The advantage of these resellers is that they're more responsive to non- standard requests if you really know what you want and are willing to pay for it. In Origin's case, I remember a time where you could have a liquid cooled Xbox 360 or PS3 built right into your desktop computer! I don't know how much things have changed since then, but, with regards to purchasing monstrously powerful laptops, you have as much say as your wallet does.
