Thoughts on this laptop?

[Canaduh]

I've been shopping around for a new laptop and I came around this.

What do you guys think? Good laptop for the price or not?

Edit: Actually after looking around a bit I decided maybe i7 was a little overkill. I'm not an expert so opinions are definitely welcomed, but is there really a big difference between i5 and i7 besides wasting money?

Also is the graphic card in this one good enough for running d3 on medium/high settings with decent fraps? Card is a NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M.

Thanks in advance!

If it's to run Diablo youŽll want the last one you listed. We have discussed laptops for Diablo III here already, and this one still seems to be the better deal with gaming in mind:

The graphicscard is abit better than a 540M, closer to a 555M in performance. It got a bigger screen and higher res, which will tax the card more, but also look better. And it's Acer of course, they are often described as plasticky.

I saw that but I need the laptop for college first, d3 second and I heard acer was a little on the cheap side. Right now I'm trying to decide between two laptops.

This HP has a higher screen resolution than the Asus and also more features like a better graphic card and fingerprint reader. However its an integrated graphic card unlike the asus which is a dedicated card. Will that make much of a difference?

Heres the link to the Asus laptop.

Yeah, it will make quite a difference, especially with newer games. I would go with the Asus laptop and dedicated graphics. Integrated graphics are really not meant for gaming, even if they can work ok with older games and 2D games.

Thank you! After looking around I found what I think is an awesome deal.

I knew I wanted the asus so I looked around a bit and found the i7 on tigerdirect for the same price as the i5..so I decided why not! Thanks for all your help guys much appreciated!
