Awesome cable management, keeping it very nice and tidy. Any plans for full liquid cooling in the future?

I work at Best Buy in the Computer and Tablets department and the general consensus between me and my co workers is that Acer has terrible build quality and is highly unreliable. However I would love to hear people who have actually owned Acers and that had the opposite to what I previously stated as I'm just looking for a budget laptop for my Dad.

Mechanical keyboards are pretty satisfying to type on but it can be an acquired taste. Their build quality is fantastic and their lighting also reflects it on certain keyboards but the drawback is price. You are paying a premium for these features. I'd recommend the Cooler Master Storm QuickFire XT as you have choices between switches and lighting.

I think this was posted in another thread but the answer is no, you can't switch to the onboard intel graphics with the sli model as it is one of the limitations of Optimus.

Out of those three, I strongly suggest the Asus VN248H-P because of the 5ms response time. The lower the response time the better as ghosting will become less visible. Prices tend to be higher for lower response time so that's something to consider and if you want good color production, I also highly recommend looking at IPS displays/monitors.

I really thought this was going to be a hassle-free install of an 7260 wifi card but seriously this is becoming a huge pain in the butt.
