Hey guys, I just found an Alienware 17 for about 1500-1600 USD it has the followin specs:

Processor 4th Generation (Haswell) Intel Core i7-4910MQ  (8MB Cache, up to 4.1 GHz w/ Turbo Boost)      Display 17.3" WLED Full HD (1080p/1920x1080) Memory  16GB Dual Channel DDR3 1600MHz Graphics  8GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M GDDR5 Hard Drive 2 x 1TB HDD + 80GB mSATA SSD (cache) Optical Drive 8X Blu-Ray Combo (Blu-ray ROM + DVD+/- RW)     Wireless Connectivity Killer Wireless-N 1202 a/g/n 2x2 MIMO + Bluetooth 4.0

Is it worth it, I've been looking to buy a laptop with an 880m in it for a while(Yes I know desktops are better) and this one seems really good, the only dents in the pictures I've seen are in these

It's a decent price and it'll probably be more reliable as well due to the fact that most refurbished products are checked over with a fine-toothed comb and usually any small problems are sorted whereas manufacturers might let minor problems slip through.
