G73 upgrade or not? :D

It's been months since i visited this site! ('cos my g73's in tip top shape thanks to you guys! ) But i feel like selling this for a customized laptop. but before that i just wanna ask some questions

How much would my laptop cost if it doesn't come with the box, but is freshly installed and comes with installed programs? (like office, etc)

How would a 720qm with an ati 5870m compare to a 2630qm with say gt540m?

I've been using this laptop for school and for games, it's been working great! but it's just too much of a hassle 'cos until know i can't fix every problem it has. :| (or too lazy)

I just want a powerful 17" laptop with a reasonable price and hassle free.

 

Good question, this thread may be of help:

When U say 'fix every problem' what issues are you having now, or do you mean problems in the future?
Good luck with your decision

 

right now is this annoying mouse pad. i fixed it before, then did a clean install. and after a few months it came back. :/

 

Won't see much of a change upgrading. Unless you've got money to burn, and really want to fix the mouse.

 

Stick with the 5870M it can still do the business.

If you want a better processor 920/940xm which is on par with the 2630/2730qm models and has a lot more flexibility.

 

save your money.. unless you want to get laptop with gtx485m/ati 6970m
