Unfortunately, I'm not certain there are any laptops that can reasonably meet your expectations. There are "gaming" laptops for $1000, but to be frank, you'll really need to go significantly above $1000 for anything remotely close to decent performance in games.
I encourage you to think about whether you need the portability and whether you need a gaming laptop. Desktops tend to be significantly more cost-effective, and if size is a concern, you can have a small-form-factor desktop. With $1000, you can build a mid-high desktop. I should also point out that you don't need to pick just one or the other. I have a desktop (that I use for gaming and most work), and I bring a laptop with me for if I just need to have a computer where I go.
laptop part is essential. I hope I can get decent amount of gaming with a 3060.
