I just bought this:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834152551

It's got ...
  • the 870m (pretty nice graphics for a laptop, and going higher to the 880m barely improves things so it's not really worth it)
  • an SSD for the OS, and a 750GB with 7200rpm (ie. fastest for non-SSD) drive for media
  • processor is the i7 4800MQ, which is pretty good for the money (a lot of other laptops at the same price point only have the 4400)
  • 24GB of RAM (most similar laptops only have 16GB)
  • a Blue-Ray writer (most have just a DVD writer or a DVD writer/Blue-Ray reader)

... all for only $1,699.99 (- $100 rebate, but I'm usually too lazy to send those in so I don't count it).
