How much will I make?

[BitshireHashaway]

Hello,
I have a gaming laptop with a Nvidia 650m 2gb graphics card and Intel HD 4000 built into the i7. From what I've heard these are higher end laptop specs for regular usage, but not to good for making money with BitCoins. I plan on mining as part of Slush's Pool, so assuming I do that and its running say 12 hours/day, can anyone give me an estimate from their experience on how much I'll make a day?

You can see expected hashrate for almost every piece of mining hardware here:

and put that hashrate into a profitability calculator here:

So insignificant as to the point you might as well not even try with that setup. I don't want to sound mean, but I feel like the stress you put on your laptop alone out weighs trying to mine with it.

It would be something like 0.0005 BTC / day (with 12 hours only). So you need ~ 6 years to make 1 BTC ... if difficulty never increase.

Yes not worth stressing your notebook. Remember notebooks dont have best airflow needed for cooling the fully stressed GPU, so will not last long.

Yeah , sorry dude , totally pointless . Nvidia cards are useless for mining too . you would be better off selling the laptop and buying some coins . or buying a read mining setup . you need a desktop . with the right video cards . alot of cooling and i would have it on 24 hours a day . laptop would have been good a couple years ago but things have got a bit harder since then .

I've got the same graphics card in my laptop and I can can max 23 kh/s. Your best bet would be to mine FeatherCoins, I'm getting 3 a day at the moment

It told me $0.20/day. However, the question I have is that when I entered 5000 mh/s (the 5 gh/s some companies are putting up for sale like bfl), it said that it would make $40/day, and bfl is only charging $274, so why can't you buy one of those systems, and make your money back in a week?

well, probably because they only exist in people's minds? the company will gladly take your money today in exchange for a promise to send you one of those sometime in the future. and a short while after those start delivering the difficulty will go up so that you don't make anymore than gpu's do now.
