Optimus Series: 17.3" Matte Full HD LED Widescreen
Processor (CPU)
Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Mobile Processor i7-4710MQ (2.50GHz) 6MB
Memory (RAM)
8GB KINGSTON SODIMM DDR3 1600MHz (1 x 8GB)
Graphics Card
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 860M - 2.0GB DDR5, 640 CUDA Cores - DirectX® 11
Memory - Hard Disk
WD Black² Dual Drive - 120GB SSD and 1TB HDD - WD1001X06XDTL
Thermal Paste
ARCTIC MX-4 EXTREME THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY COMPOUND
Sound Card
Intel 2 Channel High Definition Audio + MIC/Headphone Jack
Bluetooth & Wireless
GIGABIT LAN & KILLER™ 1202 WIRELESS GAMING 802.11N + BLUETOOTH 4.0
And these 3 preset laptops:
Destroyer GX70 Gaming
(£999.00)
PC SPECIALIST Cosmos II RS-850 15.6" Gaming Laptop
(£829.00)
PC SPECIALIST Optimus V RS15 15.6" Gaming Laptop (£1049.00)
Which of these 6 are the best bang for their buck, and performance wise too?
Also is a hybrid drive as most of them have, the best option? or would a seperate SSD and HDD be better? I plan on having my OS and a few games or frequently run programs on the SSD side.
Some of them are 17.3" too. Also if you have any better recommendations around the £700-£1000 budget please post it!
Thank you!
Oh and by the way, The reason i've only looked on these few sites is because they offer finance options on there laptops which is what i require.
