Hi all, Hoping to get a little advice here.
I recently bought a new laptop, the MSI GX660R. Specs :
I5-460M
ATI HD 5870 1GB
LED 15.6" FHD 1920x1080
DDR3 8GB
HDD 1TB raid 0
I got the laptop for work and a bit of gaming. Now, ive had the laptop for a few months now and I think ive played a game once.. In all the time ive had it.. kinda makes me think I went a bit ott getting this laptop, as I got it mainly for the gfx.
I work as a webdesigner, and use a lot of the adobe software including soundbooth and premiere.
The question is....I'm concidering selling the laptop to a mate for around £600-700 and getting a macbook pro..
Would this be more suited for my needs?
Anyone had experience with the Macbookpro able to give their opinion?
It will certainly be a lot lighter than the GX660R which would be nice, as im carrying the laptop into work everyday
