Looking pretty nice! How much did it cost you though? I read somewhere that Haswell CPU's are pretty costly at the moment. Don't break this one!

I'm no hardware expert at all but 1000$ seems pretty cheap for such a laptop.


BTW, if you do need to disable things from startup then:




Or services. MSConfig shows more I think but the above is safer.

Yea seems like you got a really good deal! I would expect something like that to be a 1400-1700 laptop, but damn, 1k saves you some money.

Although after this last laptop Im of the opinion to not get expensive laptops and just get a good desktop and decent laptop.

I just assume its a 17.1+ in screen and probably around 7-9 lbs. I know I use mine most of the time hooked up to my tv as well for watching yt, twitch, netflix, ect.

15.6 inch screen actually im getting used to rs being 6 inches across. Either text on chrome is fine or i ajust the screen resolution for rs to be a decent size and then text on chrome is blurry
