A compelling reason to purchase this laptop. Although my desktop does outperform it, this is 100x easier to lug around to school and vacation.

I've since fixed the issue with a 3000w pure sine wave inverter that was just as costly as my old one but about twice as big an... Read More

Especially considering it's comparable to the razerblade pro for significantly less money.

But if you've been using a high-end macbook, you'll notice the screen isn't quite as sharp)- weird bug where you sometimes have... Read More

Also, i'm not sure how many laptops actually have a 120hz screen.
