I'm looking for a new laptop and I was wondering if anyone had experience with this laptop and knew any flaws?

Looking for a real world review of this laptop as well.

Maybe somebody will provide some feedback.

I ordered it and its supposed to come today, so I'll post my thoughts about it

I setup a similar model for a customer. Came with the intel graphics instead of the 540m. It had that cheap plasticy feel to it. The screen wasn't terrible. No denying there's a lot of bang for the buck there.

Sweet I'll post a full review. the reason I bought it was for 600 dollars, there is nothing that beats the performance

Thanks!!

I'll just post my first impressions

Well I ordered it from Newegg and it came in a fairly large box, when I opened it it had the usual basic packaging, little foam blocks on the edge. It was fairly easy to open, the screen and top of it are GIANT fingerprint magnets, its obviously loaded with crapware so I reinstalled windows 7, reinstalling was a pain to get all the drivers working. I have yet to game with it but I'll post more when I do. Overall I like it

[mismith356]

Awesome...I figured there would be some crapware. Sorry you had to deal with that.

Eagerly awaiting your opinion on performance.

Any chance of some real world photos? The standard pics don't seem to represent it very well....I wouldn't have thought finger prints would be an issue with this laptop.

Thanks!

Can you run the free version of 3DMark 11 on it to see how it fares? Thanks.

I'll try and get that done this week since I'm off school for a week. As for performance the only game I've played on it is League of Legends, but I just installed GTA IV and Dirt 3 and I'll be posting my fps from both of the games. Oh yes, the laptop is extremely wide, like so wide you will look at it funny, but it doesn't affect anything. The battery life on mostly max power savings and browsing the internet is about 3-4 hours max, performance wise though I would expect this laptop to perform roughly around an Alienware M11x.

Just a side note but mine only has the i5 2430m, not the i7 so it might perform a little bit worse.
