    I've been laptop searching for some time now. I bought the Asus G750 with the 860m from Best Buy and I had somethings I didn't like, like the unnatural scrolling. I also had some issues with the viewing angles.

    Returned it and went Lenovo Y50. Had many issues with that laptop. Gave up on that, returned it for a MSI GS60 and loved it minus the heat and difficult upgradeability. So I returned the GS60 and decided to just get the G750 with the 870m and 75% color Gamut screen.

    My logic is since I enjoyed its performance the most of the 3 laptop and it did have better viewing angles than the Lenovo, and better heat control and performance of all. I thought what the hey, just spend a little more than the GS60 and go even higher.

    I hope I'm happy with this model.

    My question for you guys is do you have experience with the 75% Gamut screen upgrade?

    You can fix the auto-scrolling touchpad by getting generic Elan Touchpad drivers. The ASUS driver is just missing the box to disable it.

    Well I just want it to scroll like the MSI, Lenovo, and Mac did. Two fingers pushing up will make the window scroll down gesture.

    The Elan drivers I have from that site do have a reverse setting for scrolling (up = down).
