Hey guys!
I've put some specs up for the Optimus V 17.3" laptop and wondered if anyone got any suggestions or something they would like to comment on!
My budget was around £750 - £800 but I ended up with £808.

My main use for this laptop will be Music production, some video editing and some gaming (battlefield 3/4, Black ops 2, Crysis 3 etc)
I know that I wont be running all these games at Ultra settings, but as long as i get 1920x1080 on the games i will be happy

Here are the specs -

Chassis & Display Optimus Series: 17.3" Matte Full HD LED Widescreen (1920x1080)
Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Mobile Processor i7-4710MQ (2.50GHz) 6MB
Memory (RAM) 8GB KINGSTON HYPER-X IMPACT 1600MHz SODIMM DDR3 (1 x 8GB)
Graphics Card NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 860M - 2.0GB DDR5, 640 CUDA Cores - DirectX® 11
Memory - Hard Disk 1TB SERIAL ATA II 2.5" HARD DRIVE WITH 8MB CACHE (5,400rpm)
mSATA/M.2 SSD Drive 120GB INTEL® 530 mSATA 6Gb/s SSD (upto 540MB/sR | 480MB/sW)

Memory Card Reader Internal 9 in 1 Card Reader (MMC/RSMMC/SD: Mini, XC & HC/MS: Pro & Duo)

All for £808..

The scorpion black is not 1tb, the largest one is 750gb..and its quite more expensive than what I have.
Is the Serial ATA not a good HD?
