    It turned out well. However, I bought a refurbished 765m one from the same seller. It's been 5 months since I bought it and I carry my laptop around all the time so it went through a bit of an abuse. Despite that it is still going strong. Also the buyer replies pretty quickly if there is a problem with the product you bought. From my experience you should pick it up.

    Meh, mine had a bad battery. Razer wanted to charge minimum $265 to replace it and I had to send it to them, they wouldn't send me a replacement battery.

    Battery was not detected by Windows, so no estimated time remaining. Otherwise battery seemed to work, but no way to set it to go into power save mode or hibernate or shut down if battery go too low.

    For some reason, my inner Mac hatred prevents me from ever wanting one of these. Yet they seem like good machines.
