As the title says, I recieved my new laptop today. I built the spec primarily for software / web development. I wanted something with a nice size screen, very fast multi-tasking and a nice (not in your face style) case which would look sleek at business meetings. Of course, some light gaming will take place but I have a primary rig for that.
So the case, well, wow. It's beautiful. The screen is bright and razor sharp. Just beautiful.
The keyboard is a dream to type on, and the touchpad is also smooth to use.
I'm currently installing a wide array of software, simutaniously - which has been so far no problem what-so-ever for the 6th gen i7.
I haven't had a chance to install any games as yet, that's least of my priorities.
VERY happy with the laptop and service received from PCS. Would recommend to anyone looking for a high-end laptop / light gaming, without forking out too much additional cash for a needless GPU.
