Sager NP8170 or a Lenovo Y580?

So I'm debating which of these two laptops I'd like to get. I can get them for relatively the same price, but I don't know which is superior. The Lenovo has great speakers, a backlight keyboard, and is still a very solid system. The Sager has an older CPU (2670 vs the 3610 in the Y580), but has a much better GPU (6990 vs 660GTX) and lacks the bells and whistles. Which of the two would you guys go with?

Specs are otherwise very similar. Both have 8 gigs of RAM, 5400RPM HDDs, etc. The Sager is 17 inches vs. the Lenovo's 15.6 however.

I like the Lenovo myself. I have a Y500 with 2 GT650m in SLI. about 6 lbs.
