I7 4810 is a good start or at least have mainboards that allow upgrades to future chips.
GTX 980 is another desire, though I know the NDA is still up on that one.
17inch 1080p IPS screen would be very nice, I know no one is doing them right now from the looks of it, but I can dream.
I've got no idea what people think they will use higher resolution screens for on such a small screen, on a gaming laptop, 3k and 4k screens aren't better or more useable, they are the exact opposite, especially on a gaming laptop where scaling down to 1080p just makes stuff look awful. Perhaps it's the ipad effect where consumers think the bigger the number the better.
16gb of ram is plenty for all our gaming needs.
Dual SSD option is great to have, no desire to raid personally as I see more benefit from running os drive and game drive.
Optimus is nice if done right or if the system has a switch to lock it to a certain gpu. Optimus is awful if done wrong as some of your competitors have and it causes problems in games, namely diablo 3.
Ability to open it for ssd and ram upgrades without murdering our warranty.
SLI I see as utterly useless, and completely undesirable. Especially so when your competition is telling customers they cannot upgrade gpu drivers without causing thermal problems in one thread and then boasting about how fast their sli setup is in another. But even SLI done by a sane company like MSI I still see as a compromise with profiles and drivers.
Those 980gtx mobile parts are single digit percent slower than a desktop standard 780, if that isn't enough performance in a laptop we probably need a desktop.
I think MSI is getting almost everything perfect right now personally.
Just please bring out a 4810 with a 980 in the coming months and i'll be quite likely to buy it!
