Pros: Great specs for the money. Graphics card was the big factor for me. I only run WOW and I got 60 fps on full settings. Averages around 30 fps but that could be my wireless/dsl. Startup was fast and so far im pretty pleased. Screen is decent but not outstanding. Keyboard is nice and has a little bit of flex but does not bother me, I like the full numberpad as well since I do accounting. I only use a mouse so the touchpad is not a factor either. It stays cool on my lap as well so no overheating problems. Plenty of USB(3 i think) and it has HDMI and video ports.

Cons: My only cons so far is the quality of the materials. There are a few rough edges on the outside of the screen casing(top). Not enough for me to send it back. The plastic used seems a little thin as well, but for $650 its not a huge factor either. My last laptop was a Dell 17" which was a beast so I have to get used to this one. The cords can get a little jumbled since the HDMI, LAN, Power, (1)USB, and VGA ports are on the right side.

Overall Review: If you dont want to pay an exorbitant amount of money for a decent gaming laptop I would go for this one. I may buy a new standalone monitor for gaming and graphics on this look pretty good so far.
