I price matched this to $551, though it took almost 6 weeks to get it since it was on back order.For the price, you get decent performance and an excellent GPU (8750M is in the lower end of the mid-range mobile graphics cards). I was getting about 60 FPS in LoL with max settings when it loaded(not during large group fights). Without an optical drive, it is extremely lightweight.I would have preferred an Intel CPU, as they provide better performance and battery life, but they are much pricier. With only one memory slot, you can't add more RAM to the 8 GB that comes with the unit; you would have to replace it with a 12 GB stick. Without a line in, you can't use a headset or microphone.I had to bite the bullet and get a system with Windows 8 since I needed to buy a laptop and there were no systems with Windows 7 here. Looking forward to Windows 9 because, with Microsoft, you only get every other OS, i.e. 98, XP, 7.
