Is this laptop worth the money?

[MysteryINC]

Hi there,

I was browsing Ebay today and I saw this laptop: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MSi-GX660R-Core-i7-Blu-Ray-1TB-RAID-8GB-Ram-TDE-1999-Gaming-Laptop-/171070441930?pt=UK_Computing_Laptops_EH&hash=item27d497c9ca

Would it be worth getting this laptop for the price it's currently standing at?

It has a HD 5850 which is a decent card but as this is an old laptop the issues (heating etc.) that will crop up is not worth the price. You can go for this (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/15-6-MSI-GE60-0NC-622UK-2-4GHz-Intel-Core-i7-3630QM-8GB-DDR3-750GB-HDD-2GB-/360666274587?pt=UK_Computing_Laptops_EH&hash=item53f9629b1b) as its within your budget or this (http://www.ebuyer.com/517551-pc-specialist-optimus-v-x15-gaming-laptop-pcs-l563895) as it has a good bang for buck for gaming.

I think I'll with the Optimus V X15 as it's not really the most expensive laptop in the world, but the specs seem good

For for your help/opinion

It says 3 Year Standard Warranty (1 Month Collect & Return, 1 Year Parts, 3 Years Labour) so I think actually its just 1 year warranty on parts. Just a word of caution on that.
