Hey Duders,
So i've been putting away a little bit of money every month for the last year or so and now with my massive pile of coins rolled and cashed i finally have enough in the PC fund to get a computer. Now, you may call me crazy but i'm leaning towards a gaming laptop because portability is somewhat of a necessity. The model i've been eyeing is the ASUS G75VW. It comes just within my price range and seems powerful enough, but seeing as i'm no expert in the world of PC gaming (my primary machine at the moment is a macbook after all) i decided to appeal to you fine folks for advice.
The specs for the machine are as follows:
