[QUOTE="gqtuazon, post: 249589, member: 6573"] Dave - I just recently upgraded my son's laptop for college. He was using a dual core processor and it was definitely slow in today's standard. I purchased the i7 4700 processor and this processor smokes the older laptop by a large margin. You are actually getting 8 processors since it has hyperthreading. I upgraded the hard drive to a Samsung 250 gb SSD card and it has a 16gb RAM and 2gb GTX video card. With the SSD card, the fans barely operate since it is much cooler than the regular hard drives. This laptop is so much fun to use than my aging desktop which is only being powered by a 6 core AMD processor. FWIW, I purchased mine from cyberpowerpc.com.
