Thanks for all the help.
I've also noticed that it's kind of overpriced for it's specs considering that it's only an i3 and only has 2gb of RAM... can it be that the GT640m is the reason that's why it's high priced?
I'll be using the laptop for my Thesis in school which will be using Photoshop...
Ok so no to a 17" laptop....now I've found a new competitor to my first choice Acer...it's a samsung...I was blown by this laptop having a GT640m...correct me if I'm wrong but I've reasearched about the GT640m and it's almost 5-40% faster than GT540m...is this right or what? GT640m is ranked #...
Phenom X6 1100 is 2.2k cheaper than the i5 2500k and I can't agree to you that GTX 680 is better than 7970. By the way I'm not talking about the regular 7970...as you can see on my suggestion it's XFX Black Edition.
Uhh...I'll use it for my thesis in school so I'd be going out with it alot and mainly for gaming. Will it be not-so-portable? I don't have any experiences with a laptop.
I already edited my post..it's working again. About the price....yea I've checked it also and the brand new ones difference from the refurbished ones are from 200-300 dollars.So yea maybe I'll ex it on my list.
How about this?
How reliable is this? I mean yes it's manufacturer refurbished but how do I know of it's condition? How can I check for scratches or stuff like that before I buy it? this is my first time (if i proceed) to buy anything online....so I'm kind of scared...but I really like it for...

My budget in Philippine Peso is around 32k-34k.
Your rig is good but I really think I can't afford those kind of GPUs.
Anywhere I can chop off my expense? Like for example getting an Athlon II x2 275 and OCing it instead of Phenom II? Will it bottleneck the GPU?
Ok just let me explain it one more time.
Rigod's rig is good but three things are wrong with it. First, I don't want to use 960T 'cause I think I want to stick with the 955 BE. Second, it has no monitor which I need. Third, it has a very good GPU I must agree but getting that kind of GPU Card...
Oh well, based on what I've seen on the benchmarks and reviews there's not too much difference between the 2 GPUs so I think I'll go with GT540M 2gb. I think I might buy an external HDD for the remaining 3.8k of my budget. Thanks!
The Acer is 3742 Rs cheaper than the Asus to be exact.
And is there such thing as a Core i5-245QM? If there is then what's the difference of Core i5-245QM and Core i5 2450M?
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans:Gaming and schoolwork. Games like RE5, Metro 2033, Crysis 2...
They have both Core i5 and almost with the same price....but I'm more concerned with the GPU...6730M 2gb vs. GT540m 2gb....Which is better? 'Cause Acer AS4755 is cheaper and has a better proc than the Asus...shall I go with the Acer and save a little bit of money? Or shall I go with the Asus...
