[citation][nom]Tweedledee32[/nom]I haven't and I have the same G74. You shouldn't talk about things which you don't know. The G74 and it's predecessor is what knowledgeable gamers who are looking for portability, yet still want to eat, go for. My laptop runs rings around anything short of an overclocked custom build desktop or an alienware wallet buster.[/citation]
Let's not embellish. The GTX 560m of the G74 is a downclocked GTX 550 Ti. Not a bad chip, but not near top of the line either. That being said, if you upgrade to GTX 580m SLI then you are talking about more power than a single GTX 580 which is not bad at all - especially in a laptop!

Now for this statement of ignorance. This comes up literally every time an article about a gaming laptop is posted. Apples and oranges my friend. A laptop also has a mouse, a keyboard, speakers, a battery backup, a screen, smaller size, lower weight. And yes you pay for the mobility, and for most people that is easily worth it.
