    I saw that Lenovo has the Y580 on sale for $799 and was thinking about jumping on it, I would be coming from an MSI GX740, the one with the i7 first gen processor. Is this worth the upgrade gaming wise? My GX740 has a 5870m, and the Y580 comes with the 660m. I've read mixed reviews on these two put up against each other, the only think that turns me off is the 15" monitor, my buddy previously bought a Y580 and had to send it in cause it wouldn't recongnize his 660m only the HD 4000, so what do you guys think I should do???
