Which is the Best Core i7 Laptop Deal at the moment

net4hack · 2011-03-27 09:44:30

What is the best Intel Core i7 Laptop deal at the moment? Prefer one with 6GB ram + SSD drive + 1GB Graphics card? Prefer one with the second gen core i7 though.

The processor is the old core i processor. From reviews it is shows that the new second gen core i processors are 45% more powerfull during content creation etc. But most of these costs more than 1000.

I wouldnt buy an old core i7 laptop by paying mad money which would be soon out of the market. I think retailers want to sell off the existing stock.
Some of the best deals for Core i7 Second Generation (Sandy Bridge) laptops I came across.

ELARA:

There are cheaper than similar DELL laptops with similar spec. And ASUS brand is a reliable one. Any thing to add?

Some good i7 laptops here. But add shipping costs, I think Komplett has better deals.
