As much as I hate Alienware, thats a decent price for the spec's on that machine. With the way that computer pricing works in the UK, evenly spec'd machines cost nearly double.

I recommend this purchase, good CPU, plenty of RAM, good Video card (is better than the GTX 860M which most machines around that price point has in it), Blu-ray is ok (i prefer watching on a larger TV but whatever), and for a price of 750 GBP.

Just to compare, a comparable spec'd laptop new is almost 1000 GBP. Make sure it isn't a hot item lol.

(DAMN prices in the UK are insane, for a decent laptop for gaming, i7, 16 GB, GTX 860M, 1.5 TB, its $1400 in Canada, the equal machine in the UK is 1300 GBP which works out to be nearly $2330 CAD....)
