has anyone used the Chillblast Prophet laptop

[Jack Laskey]

Hi guys, I was looking on the chillblast site the other day, and saw the prophet laptop which offers a student discount, the specs look decent, but I was wondering if it was worth the money, or whether to go for a HP
Any advice is welcome, or any other suggestions (under £1000)

NO! That's like $1800USD for a GTX 850m! Check out MSI for good, affordable gaming laptops. ASUS ROG is also good, but overpriced

The prophet is £712 with the discount applied, which is an ok price for the 850m...

That's still $1300USD for an 850m. You can get an MSI Gaming laptop with an 860m for $1200USD

I guess the market in wherever he's from isn't the same as the US market. US' pricing is usually cheaper than most countries.

Anyway, you could even get an 860m for 879$ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834317890&cm_re=y50-_-34-317-890-_-Product

The Canadian pricing for gaming laptops is also horrible. An i7 and 860m from MSI or ASUS is like $1400
