Daily Driver Engineering Student Laptop: Lenovo Y510p i7-4700MQ Crucial 512GB SSD 2x Nvidia 750m SLI (Nice to have the second card for gaming, but solidworks can only be modified to use 1 card) 8GB Ram She runs like a dream since I got rid of the TRAAAAAASH hybrid drive they had been shipping with these babies. The 512GB even with games and a dual boot of linux and windows, this thing is great since I can store anything I want to on my student Google drive account, which I haven't really had to use. I just don't recommend the SSD if you will be storing the bulk of your music or movies on the drive.

After throwing in a Crucial 512gb ssd (which doubled the battery life to 4.5 hours), the laptop is amazing. I'll be throwing in my wireless card soon, but the amount of power in this 15 inch beast is great. I run starcraft 2 on all ultra settings at 30 frames.
