Customer Ratings:

I purchased a Lenovo with similar specs, but Windows 8 and it had very bad sound so I had to send it back. I've had this very laptop purchased from this seller for 2 days and I LOVE it! It might help you to know that it runs Minecraft on all the highest settings very smoothly. It also runs Skyrim on High very smoothly. I tried ultra, and while it does run, it can be a little jerky. No matter, you can't tell a difference between those two settings anyway. It also comes with Windows 7 which I'm very pleased about. The sound is SUPERB! Best sound I've ever had out of a laptop. I'm a tech geek, so I've had plenty of computers. This laptop also has excellent microphone sound IF you plug a microphone in. The onboard mic is passable if you need to skype someone or something, but it's not great. No onboard mics really are. Also the soundcard on this laptop DOES have stereo mix. That was important for me to know because I'm a sing and plug a mixer into my laptop to record my music. All in all it is a fantastic laptop.

Con: The only con I've found is the fan is pretty loud compared to other laptops I've seen. But it doesn't get very hot, so that is worth the sound.

I would buy it again and at this price point (currently under one hundred dollars) it is the best value you will find for a gaming laptop. I have no problem calling it a gaming laptop.

I had to get a new laptop fast because my old Asus fried on me right before I got deployed, so I needed a replacement and fast. After a few hours of surfing the web I found this one. It had a good processor, a decent sized harddrive, a good graphics card, and plenty of ram. But the important part was would it get here before I had to leave? The answer was yes, I used 2 day shipping and it actually shipped the day I ordered it so it got here the very next day.

Pros

Now that I have had it for a few days and have been able to play around with it for a bit I can say with confidence that this laptop was worth the money. It plays all of my games, though not always on the ultra high settings it will play them smoothly on high every time. It's fast and energy efficient, the processor sits at 2.4Ghz unless it needs more then it will jump up to 3.4Ghz giving it a nice boost. The battery lasts about 3 to 3.5 hours under light use and about 2.5 under heavy use. Set up was easy, it's just following a few directions on the screen and it set's it up for you.

Cons

It does have a few draw backs but not many. The first one that I found was when I paired my Iphone to the bluetooth to play the music through the computers speakers, it bluescreened. It will do this each time I try, I'm looking for a fix and other bluetooth devices still work it's just the Iphone. The second is not so much a con as it is just kinda weird. It seems to be partitioned like it has 2 hard drives and as far as I can tell it only has one. I still 750GB total but its on 2 drives. Like I said not really a con just weird. The next is that it comes with a lot of junk software that you don't need. Easy enough to delete, but a waist of space in my opinion.

Edit: I have fixed the problem with the Bluetooth and it is working fine

I gave it 5 stars because it was delivered earlier than I expected the delivery estimation. I love it because it is windows 7 and I am kind of expert by manipulating the other stuffs in windows 7. My worry is the fan it was kinda loud but all in all it's good for right now. Let's see in the next month about this product on how it's going on but for now everything is very good.
