Lenovo Y580 or MSI GT70 OND

 

The Lenovo offers great bang for the buck, and is a 15 inch 

The MSi is a 17 inch, and I can say it has the best sound I have ever heard from a laptop.

its for my partner, she doesn't look after her laptops very much and i was looking at the Asus G75VW but it is a tad much, and the laptop that linus did an unboxing for by Asus ROG a few months back but i cant find it anyway.

i keep telling her to wait for Haswell and for the GTX 700m series to release but she is stuborn and wants it now -.-

I would say the samsung series 7 gamer, but it is very very over the price range, and it does have issues with cooling, and you cant really change anything other than the hard drives... other than that the asus g75 would be a good choice, or mabye the 15 inch variant... i dont know the exact model number but im pretty sure linus did a video on it... and i think the gpu on the 15" one is similar to the 17" one...

im not a half ass person when it comes to computers, i would much rather she got a gaming desktop or a cheap ass tablet then a gaming laptop.
