From now until this may 27th, there is a 15% off coupon for the w530 on the main lenovo site. I was wondering if I could get a better deal. I have read some older forums and people have gotten more than 300$ off. My main question is if there are better deals in the future and where can I look for them?
I am an Architecture student and my last computer has overheating problems because it was not built to handle large renderings. I use V-ray, Photoshop, Rhino 3D, AutoCAD. I will probably play many recent 1st person shooters on it and would like it to run it fine at least on medium high settings. My other question other than finding a better deal is; If the k2000m is worth the extra 250$ or stick with the k1000m and if I should pay 200$ more for FHD 1920x1080.
I want to customize the w530 with:
CPU: i7-3740QM
GPU: k2000
Res: HD+ 1600x900
RAM: 8gb
It is $1,794.00 -COUPON $269.10= $1,524.90
My ability to play games on it is not important, and my preferred price would be lower than 1200$.
