    So my question are next:
    1- how good (strong) is Graphics(GPU) and whether it will be able to play games in high or ultra sett like
    -World of Tanks
    -GTA V( announcing that it will be for P.C ver)
    - Project CARS
    - Nex Car Game
    - Battlefield 3
    Thats all about the graphic?

    2- is it posibile on this model of laptop to add more Ram memory?

    3- if anyone knows how much is Turbo mod of the i7 4700HQ on this laptop ?
    How much this processor have L1 & 2 chace?


    Thats about all info i need someone to help me :cool:
    If anyone knows from experience or if one owns this model and help me about these questions.
    Sorry about my bad eng and thank you all in advice for any help about this laptop :)

    I would get something else... This laptop will be junk for these games... Look at something like MSI GS60 or Clevo P658SE/SG if you want a proper gaming laptop... The 840M is too weak..

    LOL. What exactly is your budget? You should include that information along with others when you fill out the form and post it here: What Notebook Should I Buy? - A Laptop Buyers Guide

    That way you will get much more (and helpful ;)) advice. Maybe we can suggest something better that still fits your budget.

    Ok for $750, look for something like Lenovo Y510p refurb... The 750/755M SLI version.. You will get full HD screen, i7 4700MQ + 8GB RAM probably.. You'll need 850 at least for SLI but for 750 you'll get a single 750/755M... I'd recommend saving about $100 more and getting the 750M/755M SLI and saving yourself a lot of trouble down the road.. Ebay is the place you want to look..

    Umghh this laptop is like $1200-1500... Are you buying 2nd hand? If so, its good.. I'd take a 860M over 755M SLI anytime.. How much are you paying for this? Otherwise, for 1200-1500 much better options out there..
