Acer 5745G - great value Core i7 allrounder with Blu-ray burner

The deal: Acer 5745G - great value Core i7 allrounder with Blu-ray burner - $1,358.00

Added 12 November 2010

Powered by an Intel Core i7, the Acer Aspire 5745G allrounder notebook is a powerful package for $1,358. A Blu-ray burner lets you watch Blu-ray movies and burn huge amounts of data. Although the 15.6in (1366x768 resolution) screen is only HD (and not full HD or 1080p)  you’ll still have a good entertainment experience.

The processor - 720QM (1.6GHz)model - is a heavyweight. It will handle resource-intensive programs at once, play Blu-ray movies and edit videos. An NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics card and 4GB of RAM can smoothly run demanding games like Battlefield: Bad Company 2 on medium settings.

A 640GB hard drive is another solid component, giving you plenty of room for games, programs, pictures and whatever else. The notebook is 379mm wide, 250mm deep, 32.9mm thick and weighs 2.6kg, all of which are typical.

This is a really worthwhile bargain, since it has a Core i7 and a Blu-ray burner, a combination not usually seen before the $1,600 price level. If you were thinking of getting a Core i7 equipped allrounder notebook this is a good one.

This special can be found at Laptop Factory Outlet.

  • RoknRob (New user): How does this compare to the Toshiba Qosmio F60/033? For one, the Toshiba has an i7 740QM (1.73GHz). It also has a 750GB hard drive. Other specs appear similar (blu-ray burner, identical graphics card, identical RAM). This was being sold at Clive Peeters for 1377 or even 1294. Worth a look. I talked them back down to 1294, even thought the special was finished. I wonder what 'intangibles', if any, make this ACER more worthwhile?
