Can you give me the link coz I didn't find anything with 8650G + 8750M, However, interestingly enough, I did find one with 8650G + 8570M, which is much weaker than standalone 8750M. So, also check...

In the original one, you had dual Graphics (Integrated 8550G + Discrete 8750M), but, in the replacement, you have only the discrete graphics (only 8750M). However, it won't create any significant difference, as their performance is quite similar, and is dependent on the discrete graphics, i.e., 8750M.

Thank You for replying. When I go check back the integrated graphics, it is 8650G. If the performance is very similar, then I will accept the replacement. Getting a 12GB RAM instead of 8GB and bluetooth on my replacement is nice.

There is no link to regarding the 8650G + 8750M. On my laptop, it states the graphics are 8650G + 8750M when I updated to the latest drivers. Since my original laptop LCD monitor does not work, I will not be able to screenshot the specs. I already accepted the replacement. Thanks for your help.
