A score in excess of 4300 points is very good for a laptop and shows that this system is an all-round powerhouse. A score of 12.6MB/s for the ‘system storage – importing pictures' test is lower than anticipated. The Kingston HyperX 3K SSD in PC Specialist's Vortex III HD7S boosts that system to a much higher 22.51MB/s score.
This system exposes a problem with nvidia mobile pricing right now. the 7970m is cheaper than the GTX680m and faster, never mind the 670m.
The only issue with the 7970m is the noise and heat it generates. ive heard several laptops using it and they get very very loud when gaming.
I’m quite sure the one shown is the GT780, not the GT70. The GT70 has a very boring design, and the 0nC/0nD are slim.
Either way, it is pretty much my dream machine – 17″ and fast enough for games.
After getting my current 17″, I don’t want to go any smaller, although it’s no good with games.
My bad… I was thinking of the GE range… then again, the GT60’s look like the GE60’s and GE70’s while the GT70 and GT780 look like the GTX683 without the lights. Confusing..

According to a website, the GTX 670M is not a Kepler based GPU, this is still a Fermi graphicscard, bigger DIE, less powerful etc..
GTX 670M = GTX 570M (Bad MSi!!!)
