A little late on discovering this one, but the Lenovo y50 could be out any day now. It's projected for April or May 2014. Lenovo offer's tons of different configurations. This model is supposed to start at $999. I image with all the options it still wont be much over $1500. Lenovo offers great quality products at almost shockingly competitive prices. (Economies of scale at work). They're also ditching the SLI dual-design. This probably means they'll offer the GTX 860 & 870 in their top end models. It has also allowed them to make the machine significantly thinner\lighter. Top it off with a 4k display and a touch screen! Still waiting on pricing details, but this machine could potentially be a game changer.
