elegant yet powerful
By lrave002
If you're a gamer and you refuse to drop a bundle of money on overrated Alienware rigs, this is what you should aim for. The power on this machine is simply phenomenal! With the hardware it currently possesses, it's enough to run any game on the market at the highest level of detail.Pros: Lightning fast, lightweight for a gaming laptop, more bang for buck, runs cool and stays silent, beautifully designed, includes nice bag and gaming laser mouse with purchase.Cons: Touchpad is a little sketchy (I'm sure if you're gaming, you'll either used the included gaming laser mouse or use your own), shell can scratch very easily.

**** Edit ****i have since the original posting upgraded the ram from 16gb to 32gb with no issues.CORSAIR 16GB (2 x 8G) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1333 Laptop Memory********** end of edit **********The good:12 gb of rambluray drive17.3" screen that looks biggerintel second gen i7usb 3.0The bad:it comes with the nvidia 560gtx instead of the 570 or the newer 580its no light weight. you don't want to carry this around all day.if you are like me and go to lan partys then you will enjoy not having to drag around a case, monitor, keyboard, etc....i put in 16 gb of ram and it was easy there is one big cover on the bottom with a screw that gives you access to the ram and hd's.the next thing i will do when i can afford it is put in a ssd drivemy windows 7 experience index on this system isProcessor: 7.5Memory: 7.9Graphics: 7.2Gaming graphics: 7.2Hard Drive: 5.9what sort of disappoints me about the numbers is i have a older laptop with a 460gtx that gets the same numbers (graphics).so must be a setting or something slowing it up.the hard drive speed will get better when i put in a ssd or if i can figure out if i can raid 0 the drives.when i got this system it was between the MSI that has the gtx570 and this one.i heard the MSI has a better warranty but don't matter if you can't get a hold of them, and that has been my experience with MSI.i had bought 2 motherboards in the past for systems and needed tech support for both. one had to flash the bios because the with out it the board would not recognize the cpu. the second contact was a bad mobo. both times could not get a response from MSI.the one thing i cant understand why laptop makers still do it is put in vga connectors i would much rather have 2 hdmi ports on the system.but over all i am pleased with this system and would recommend it to anyone, with or with out the changes.Overall Summery:Great systemSome areas of improvementNot meant to be carried around much.Who should get this system?Gamer'sit runsbattlefield 3 greatcrysis no problemskyrim with easecod wm3 greatwow lol ya i play it runs greatthis does out perform some of my friends gaming desktops

By Bryan
I don't know how I could have gotten a better laptop even if I had spent more money.Graphics: AwesomeScreen/Video: AwesomeKeyboard: Excellent (takes some getting used to)Fan Exhaust: Excellent (blows out the back not down)Mouse: ExcellentStartup: ExcellentI am extremely pleased this computer. The screen is huge and the processing power is perfect. I play Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim with maximized graphics. I'm unsure of the FPS because I've never felt the need to check. It plays so smooth. I do restart the computer after about 6 hours of playing. I did have one issue with the cursor twitching but the restart fixed it.Startup is very fast. Windows 7 takes about 30 seconds from hitting the power button to having all startup programs finished.Keyboard is excellent. The keys need to be pushed slightly harder than I'm used to but that may be due to my hand position. The mouse that comes with it is responsive and I have no complaints. I really like the fan exhaust design. The heat blows out the back of the laptop not the bottom. The styling is cool and I also like the rubberized finish. As stated in other reviews, it does not smudge easily like glossy laptops. Although it does smudge but I haven't tried to clean it yet, I'm sure a damp towel will take care of it.I travel with it a lot and the backpack that came with it is great. It is a brick to carry around if you worry about that sort of thing.The touch pad was very sensitive but I just turned it off when a mouse is plugged in. I have not tried the Wifi yet. I haven't tried the BlueRay player yet.
