I wanna spend about $2500 on a computer, but I don't know which way to go. I'm in aus so prices and gst(goods and service tax) and lack of supply often screw me.
So this is what I came up with
a) Laptop
ASUS G73SW-A1 with a 60GB SSD and 3yr warranty
$2597
ASUS G73SW laptop notebook - G73SW-FHD-TZ016V - G73SW-A1 - 17.3 inch gaming laptop with GTX 460M
b) desktop
BitFenix Colossus Black Gaming Case, NO PSU PreorderETA $189.00
CoolerMaster 1000W Silent Pro Gold Modular PreorderETA $269.00
Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler [4] PreorderETA $108.00
ntel Core i7 2600K 32nm CPU
Model#:btt3-BX80623I72600K $389.00
Samsung SH-B123A 12x Blu-ray/DVD Combo Drive [4] $89.00
OCZ 120G Vertex II E Series SSD [14] PreorderETA $275.00
Western Digital 2TB Black 64MB SATAII WD2001FASS [4] Instock $209.00
Kingston 8GB(2 X 4GB) DDR3-1333MHZ PC10600 [2] $115.00
Asus P8P67 EVO L1155 P67 4x DDR3 SATA3 SATA2 eSATA RAID USB3.0 Firewire 2xGLAN CrossFire/SLI $255.00
eVGA GTX570 SC1280Mb PCI Expresss PreorderETA $449.00
note: I intend to get another 570 if i go with this laptop just so I wont have upgrade again for a while.
Which way should I go?
The big dilemma is power vs mobility and I understand that but frankly I'm torn between the two of them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and any constructive criticism on my build/choice of laptop would also be appreciated. thanks in advance.
