My 2 1/2 yr old AMD dual core HP was not working very well anymore, I am a power user and it just can't keep up with having two screens running, outlook open with 4000 e-mails, 10 word documents, 2 spreadsheets, 20 chrome tabs, 20 internet explorer tabs, skype, and ringcentral running phone calls over a usb headset. The old laptop was overheating and locking up constantly.I wanted to get a laptop that could keep up, so I considered everything from Asus ROG to MSI and Alienware, before settling my choice on this laptop. For the bang for the buck it's a winner. and it's a triditional size macbook clone looking laptop so it's light and portable unlike the true gaming laptops. It reboots FAST - 10 open programs, closed and completely rebooted and all startup programs done in approx 1 minute. This took approx 10 minutes on my old laptop. It also has 8 usable cores, so even when pushing it HARD (2 screens at 1080p) with similar usage as expressed above, it's... Read more

I recently tried ASUS G73SW-A1 Republic of Gamers 17.3-Inch Gaming Laptop.I returned it and got this instead. The D/L speed MIGHT just be one tenth of a second slower, BUT: The color is greatly superior, with more subtle adjustability. (light pink, pale blue, orange, lemon yellow, if one prefers that for certain projects over Hot pink, Burnt sienna, indigo, or lime green yellows). But even though there is a little more subtlety... The LED screens will NEVER have the mellow tone of LCD, (hoping that LED monitors go the way of the 8 track tape...soon LED is like a cold polar sun,as opposed to the south of France ambience). The sound is FAR better, with overtones rather than a hollow echo. The half size up/down arrows do not bother me at all. The keyboard layout is very pleasing, and the track pad is not overly slick. The mouse buttons are wider than the ASUS so i do not keep hitting the frame by mistake. I bought it... Read more

I purchased the laptop in Feb and it broke down in a month. The laptop just could not boot at all. I must add that as this is a heavy laptop, I have used it minimally for light surfing at home during some nights. Since I am traveling outside US till June, I have sent the laptop to be diagnosed by a service center outside of US. Unfortunately they do not have the parts or the means to help me service the laptop. I have requested customer service outside US to help me find means of sending this laptop back to a service center in US. So far, response from customer service is: "Not sure if it could be done" and "you have to pay for your own shipping" if it could be done. Still waiting for their response at this time.
