I was thinking of a 15" ish. At the time i was just looking at the cpu and gpu. I forgot to put this, also use Photoshop, ms word and school related. and also play some games like borderlands 1&2, valve games, bioshock, etc.

Check this site often I paid $620 with tax and got a i7 (sandy bridge) 500gb 7200rpm hdd and a 555m (although it's more like a overclocked 550m but I OC'ed it even more). It was new not refurbished but I wouldn't mind getting refurbished.

Just check it often because they add more every day. Currently the best price before tax is $680.
