Hey guys just wondering if anyone knows of a laptop that's better priced with comparable specs. I do not play any games but will occasionally be doing CAD and FEA simulations, so the 1080p screen and dedicated graphics are a big stand out for me.
What are your thoughts on the extra $150 to upgrade from i5-3360m to i7-3630QM ?
Any advise/opinions will be appreciated! :D

The Horize has an SSD.
The Lenovo has Win8 and the quad.
I imagine the GPU is about the same in the real world?
Here's an AU price:
Y580-BDBBKKX Lenovo IdeaPad Y580 Laptop; i7-3610QM, 15.6" FHD 1920x1080p, 12GB Ram, 750GB HDD
AU $1,628.0
The Horize does indeed look like a great machine.
My only question is regarding it's thermal performance - it looks like a very thin laptop so how does it handle cooling - especially if you went with the upgrade to an i7…
Can't find any side or rear views of that new Horize model - I wonder what the air vents are like?
download the service manual for the w550eu
should be similar
for me i question whether i need the gpu vs. the hd4000 in the w550
i dont play games on laptops
Thanks for that Tony. Yes had a look at the service manual. Pretty impressive in detail. Looks good.
