^^yes move on that quickly. I almost think that's a mistake either in price or specs, specifically the video card. Normally, a machine with that kind of video card would run into at least $1200us. If that is indeed what you get, I say its a steal of a deal.

Although my dad DID get this pretty sweet laptop off Amazon for $800usd. More than worth the money imo with killer specs.

I'm seriously looking at this MSI , yes its pricey and big but it will stand the test of time better than anything else in its price range.

Mobility 4850 = will play any game for  3 or 4 years.

After some deliberation i'v decided on this : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220520  or the next cheapest thing with similar specs.


Hoping to buy next month , instead of going all out on a lappie i forget all i need is a video card to make my desktop a gaming powerhouse again.

thks for the advice guys.

It's a 15" if I remember correctly, and I'm not buying from them, or sure if I'm buying anything as yet. Just wanted to get a general consensus since I thought it looked pretty decent specs for the price. Where should I buy from in case I do decide to?

edit: That's actually the cheapest I can find it for.

I know next to nothing about the GPU's in laptops, so is there a solid yes or no as to which of these is better?
