I bought the 17" version of this laptop to play games like world of warcraft. For the money the spec sounds great and its ok at games but on WoW your looking at middle graphic spec and your fps wil drop to the floor in raids if you are running addons like recount (7fps). Getting about 30 fps though with normal levellign with QuestHelper. So for gamers looking for a laptop dont get your hopes too far up with this laptop.
Saying that its got a lot of stuff, and it runs pretty well so still a bit of a bargain any other brand would be 100 quid more.
The finger print reader is gimmicky and pretty useless and theres loads of rubbish software you have to strip out.
So to summarise if I couldnt find something else with the same spec for the same money i'd probably buy this machine again because of my budget, but if you want to game on a laptop i'd squeeze out a few more quid next time probably.
