    Hi,

    I'm new to the Acer thread on NBRF and I will be getting a Acer 7750G very soon, specs for the configuration I bought:

    17.3" (1600x900)
    i5-2430M
    4GB DDR3-1333 (Upgrading to 8GB DDR3-1866)
    HD 6850M 1GB
    750GB 5400 RPM (Adding 120GB SSD)
    DVD Writer
    Wireless N (Upgrading to Intel 6205 5Ghz)
    USB 2.0 and 3.0
    6-Cell Battery (Didn't like the 9-Cell bulk)

    I'm selling my current Y570 for this laptop as a desktop replacement, the Y570 is a great performance laptop with many good features however it does not satisfy my need for desktop.

    There were many other 17.3" laptops I was considering mainly the Toshiba Qosmio X775 with i5-2430M and GTX 560M however given the price difference $400 I'm paying the GTX 560M and extras features I chose to go with less expensive Acer 7750G with HD 6850M mainly because I'm not a hardcore gamer.

    Another consideration was the Lenovo G770 with i5-2430M and HD 6650M because I've grown to love the keyboard, built design and consumer support of the Lenovo but fact is the HD 6650M is not as fast as a HD 6850M and so I opted for the 7750G which should a bit more future proof for gaming/video editing.

    I think I'm happy with my decision on the Acer 7750G even though the laptop has not arrived yet but given the price/performance ratio on this laptop plus room for upgrades I think I've made a good choice.
