14. Please tell us any additional information if needed. I currently have an HP dv7-1020 Core2 duo 7350 9600gt. Needs to be better than this laptop. I have found http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Aspire-V3-571G-6641-15-6-Inch-Midnight/dp/B0085H64E6/ref=sr_1_9?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1345905145&sr=1-9 however I am wondering if there is anything better out there that I should consider. I have been looking for a while and don't have a problem waiting a little longer for the best deal if needed.
