I am thinking about picking up a used Asus G73JW-A1 and could do so for $200. I want to buy this to do some gaming and some photo and video editing. I understand that it wont be anywhere as good as a desktop/newer 'gaming' laptop, but I don't plan to play anything too crazy on it. Certainly not anything next gen, probably very few 'current' gen if any. I understand that it is a few years old, but I think the specs are at least decent for my purposes.
I personally feel like it would be a good deal, but I thought it best to gather some other opinions.(Specifically from those that smarter than I on the subject)
Thank you so much for looking!

SPECS:
-Windows 7 Home Premium
-17.3 inch 1080p led display
-Processor is i7-740qm, the first gen of mobile i7 series available.
-Graphics card nvidia gtx 460m with 1.5 gm vram
-8 Gigabytes ddr3 memory
-1 Terabyte of storage with 2 hard drives at 500gb each. Both drives are 7200 rpm with a few gig solid state cache on each drive to make boot up and frequently used applications start up quickly.
