    Hello.

    I got about 7 hours to grab this one-time offer and i need your help guys.

    it is a DELL Studio 1558:

    CPU: i7-720Q 1.66Ghz
    RAM: 4GB DDR3
    HDD: 500GB SATA
    Monitor: 15.6" WXGA xBright
    VGA: ATI 5750 1GB
    Windows 7 Home premium
    .
    .
    .

    the retail price was $1200; however a special offer is running on one final remaining unit at $933 only.

    I will use it for university use mainly (Microsoft office, Design and programming software, presentations) and ofcourse some hardcore gaming (BF BC2, COD MW2, Dragon Age...)

    Any cooling issues with this build?

    Any sort of feedback would be much appreciated.
    today is the day.

    Cheers

    Can you get a dual core and not quad? I think it will be better for what you want. But sounds like a deal!
