    Help with an upgrade if needed.

    Unless you can get the GTX 1070 for a minimal price after selling the fury, I wouldn't bother. The R9 Fury is almost as fast as the GTX 1070. My advice is to test the VR with the Fury, and if you feel that it's not enough, then get the 1070, but I don't feel it will make much of a differecne.

    Near 2kg laptop for a girl (brothers unite!)

    I would go with a Lenovo W520/W530 as they can hold a lot more RAM and have higher-tier processors than the others. I know people say you don't need an i7, but if you want it to last a couple of years, it will sure come in handy vs that i3 that will start slacking after a year.

    Laptop now won't power up after accidentally connected positive to negative, which I since rectitied but still no Boot ??

    I was looking and this is what I found: The L50-B is silver/gray, and the L50D-B is apparently only black. From that, I looked for teardowns of the L50, and looked for ones especially with a black laptop. See if any of these look like the motherboard you have...

    2.1 Receiver or Alternative recommendations

    Are the speakers/subwoofer active? If so, I wasn't able to find any 2.1 reciever with HDMI ports.

    £700 laptop for school.

    Do you want it brand new? If not you can find a used Lenovo Thinkpad W530/W540 which some come with 32gb of ram and other stuff, for pretty cheap. If you want it new, I have no idea what new laptops are good.
