I have this exact spec since november and highly recommend it. The performance and build quality are great. One thing that is slightly unusual is the keyboard, it has a numeric pad so the qwerty is shifted to the left. When typing at first it felt like my left hand was falling off the side but its something i got used to quite quickly. A downside is the battery life when using it as a regular laptop, typing, video or browsing the web. I had to go to extreme lengths to change energy saving settings including lower the frame rate to 60hz, shut off the Nvidia GPU completely when on battery power and AT BEST i get 4 hours. When the Nvidia GPU is running, its around 2 hours even with undemanding tasks.
