    I noticed it's only listed at Newegg and J&R and the latter is a preorder, still saying "soon" for more than a month now... Newegg has it but it's $50 more - any chance to find it for $750 somewhere else...?

    If not what's my next best bet if I want i5-level CPU and 5650 for GPU?

    TIA :)

    Make that three of us. I'd like to know any alternatives with comparable specs.

    You could try a dell studio 17, you can get one with an i5 and a 5650 for about £700
