    I was gonna go for dell studio 1555 but decided against it mainly cause i wanted a better GPU...after spending some tym online i stumbled upon sony FW series i kinda like it also offers ATI HD 4650 which is heck ov lot better than 4570.

    I have never used a sony vaio so if FW owners can give me some feedback as to hows the screen n build quality?

    Im buying it from a friend how bought it like a week ago its still pretty much new specs r:

    C2D 2.1
    6GB DDR2 RAM
    320GB 7200 RPM
    ATI RadeonHD 4650 1gb
    16.4" 1600*900
    Blue Ray

    GPU is pretty solid....Just to be sure can i play games like GTA IV,FEAR,NFS shift,COD4,Crysis,Far cry2 on it?

    I like rest of the specs but Cpu is knda on the low end of the stick..will it be ok to play games on n multi-task while watch blu-ray?

    i wont be changing it for atlest 2 years not b4 i go off to college so will cpu be sufficient say a year from now i dont plan on running any graphics softwares on it,just games and everyday media stuff.
