Acer Aspire V3-771G-9823 17.3-Inch Laptop (Nightfall Gray)

• Intel Core i7-3630QM Processor - 2.4 GHz (6 MB Cache)
• 12 GB DDR3 RAM

• 17.3-Inch Screen, NVIDIA GeForce GT 730M

So far this has been all most everything I have wanted in a Laptop. The only down side that it does not have a Blu-ray player and came with Windows 8.(hence the four stars) These will not an issue for long. I have played Sky Rim, Fall Out3, Sims, ect and have yet had an issue. Great for watching movies too. I did wipe the HD and install Win7 no issues. One of the best laptop I have purchased.
