Hi guys, I am trying to buy a new light/gaming laptop before going back to college.
I have been looking at many laptops such as Lenovo Y50, Gigabyte P34Gv2-CF4, Asus N550JK, etc.
Then I came across ZEUSBOOK EDGE X6 100. I have never used or purchased from CyberpowerPC, but the laptop config and the price seems pretty good.
The config I have made is:
BATTERY: Li-Polymer, 11.1V, 75.81Wh
BLUETOOTH: Built-in Bluetooth
CPU: Intel® Core i7-4710HQ Mobile Processor 2.50 GHz 6M Smart Cache, Max Turbo Freq. 3.50 GHz
DOCKINGSTATION: None
FLASHMEDIA: Built-In 4in1 Media Reader
HDD: 1 TB 7200RPM SATA300 Hard Drive
KEYBOARD: Full-sized Auto-Adjusting Backlit Keyboard
MEMORY: 8GB (8GBx1) DDR3-1866 SODIMM Memory [+14] (G.SKILL)
MOTHERBOARD: Mobile Intel HM87 Express Chipset Mainboard
NOTEBOOK: CYBERPOWERPC Zeusbook Edge X6 15.6" 1920x1080 LED-Backlit IPS Panel w/ White backlit keyboard, Built-in HD webcam, HDMI Port, Li-Ion Battery &
OS: None - FORMAT HARD DRIVE ONLY [-60]
SERVICE: STANDARD 1-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIFE-TIME TECHNICAL SUPPORT
SOUND: Dolby® Digital Plus Home Theater
USB: Built-in 2x USB3.0 Ports + 2x USB2.0 Ports
VIDEO: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 870M 6GB GDDR5 (NB-ZEUS-101)
WNC: 5th Generation Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260HMW 802.11AC, 867Mbps+300Mbps Wi-Fi + BT 4.0, Mini PCI-E combo [+32]
This all comes down to $1,315.75 free shipping/ no tax. And I was gonna buy separate 256 GB SSD and extra 8GB DDR3-1866 Memory card for extra $200 and install. (There is an open spot for to put in extra SSD).
I think it is pretty good but do not wanna rush into buying the laptop.
I have a budget of ~$1500 and am willing to wait a bit if there are any good laptops that are coming out soon for around that price.
What do you guys think I should do? What do you guys think about this laptop/price? How do Lenovo Y50, Gigabyte P34Gv2-CF4, Asus N550JK compare?
P.S. I prefer long battery life, good build quality (last 3 years at least) and good keyboard (programmer) and I will be using the laptop for class as well as gaming.

Unless you're comparing your prospective purchase to a Clevo/Sager, it's best to keep this thread active in where you posted it yesterday: http://forum.notebookreview.com/what-notebook-should-i-buy/759815-do-you-guys-think-good-price-laptop-config.html
That particular forum is more appropriate for generic buying advice.
P.S. That Zeusbook is a rebranded Gigabyte notebook. -
Zeusbook.... Dota 2 much (or... greek mythology, I guess). Anyways, I'd be sold on a laptop model with that name. Or even a Necrobook one
Or even Naix-top
Is this a good laptop for the price? Cyberpowerpc trustable?
