HEY. I know there was an Omen with similar spec for cheaper at John Lewis a month ago, but that's gone now, so... Is this alright spec for the price? Says it was reduced by £101 yesterday.
I bit the bullet, a friend got staff discount on an xps

Hi, I'm looking for a good well built laptop for daughter going off the to university next year. No fancy gaming, just office, social media etc. See this and send a good option. Thoughts from those who know more welcomed. Looking to buy now as couple of years ago got stung when nothing came up before Christmas. tesco.com/dir…667

If you would use photo editing software working with CUDA this setup would be better than one with on-board graphics

Is it possible to get the screen and processor without the gaming performance for a chunk less than this? Always seems like to get these you need to pay for gaming performance that you don't necessarily want.

I'm looking for the same. Seen the screen many times, but not the full quad core processors. Seems that would be a good market to tap in to. And I can guarantee, that if 1 starts it, it'll most certainly snowball effect.
Having said that, I think I may have seen the processor, but lower results screen. But this is probably going a while back when I was looking for a laptop.

Hopefully more machines will come out with Quad Core i5 or i7 8th Generation processors.
