Hi everyone!
Would you say the above is a good combination for video/photo editing, graphic design and sometimes a game?(in that price level)
Especially: would it be a big boost to get a 4800CPU or not worth the money?
And (just out of interest): How much faster would the thing be with a 780m graphics card with 4gb instead of 2?

Thank You :taz:

By the way. I've been waiting for an answer to an inquiry for more than 8 days now. Has someone ever waited that long and still got an answer eventually?? :surrender:
 
I will stay away from AUO 95% Gamut. I have the same spec now for just over 3 months. Amongst many other issues (noisy fan, erratic touch pad) the display is awful. Oversaturated, unnatural and blurry graphic display. Had bought it for photo and video editing but cannot use it because of poor display. The print outs come different and edited photographs look entirely different on other PC and TV screens. Cannot use it for the purpose. PCS got it collected after several email exchange and returned it back quite promptly. I can not see any difference in the performance. Total waste of my money so far. They admit that there has been problem with the Chassis. Couldn't answer your subsequent questions because I haven't been able to use it.
