That's about as awesome as laptops get without being massive overkill and heavier than an actual desktop. Of course, if you have any doubts, just send it to me or @wrathoftheturkey so we can test it out for you...

Thanks I did a shit ton of reearch and with the GE72MVR just realeasing stateside this past couple weeks I was a little hesistant to order it without a whole lot of reviews online yet. I chatted with the people over at Xotic PC and they were super helpfull on getting any questions I had answered. I get it on monday and will benchmark it and post here.

For a second I thought you got a pre-built PC.

 

Nonetheless.. Contrasts!

I am also searching for 17" laptop (right now desktop is not an option even though I would love to). How's your experience? Also how's XoticPC?
