HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j111TX (F6C59PA) Laptop (Core i7 4th Gen/8 GB/1 TB/Windows 8 1/2 GB)

great specs but laptop is very very noisy!!! the fan runs makes noise equal to a water motor running on a well!!! ni7 4700mq is superb.. battlefield 4, farcry 3,assasins creed black flag, rivals all running smooth at ultra settings. nthe lid is plastic and not aluminium.ntouchpad is great with gestures but sometimes hangs. this is probably a driver problem as my mouse can move the cursor even if touchpad is stuck.nnot that lightweight as it seems.noverall a great laptop for doing graphic intensive work like photoshop,, video rendering at a medium level... nthe noise coming from the fan is really an issue and heating up of laptop.. nprocessor reaches 92 degrees when playing games and maximum is 100 for this haswel processor.nif you want style and power horse with ignoring the lifetime of the laptop.. go for it... gamers beware... get a good cooling pad like coolermaster or something having multiple fans.. nvery severe heating and fan noise problem!!!

This is definitely a laptop in the higher price range. The looks and specs do justify the price tag. It is slim, extremely good looking and is fast. Have used it for a week now and already loaded a lot of stuff. I was initially thinking of going for the 4 GB graphic card (750M) variant. However, did not want to spend close to 10k more just for that. Also bought extended warranty, so I am worry free for 3 years. Overall, if you are looking for a powerful, good looking laptop, you are on the right page. This is no alienware, nor is it a compact laptop. It is what it promises to be.nnEDIT: I do not know why people say they have an issue with games. I just ran Batman Arkham Origins and Assassins Creed 4 at maxed out settings and the laptop just sails through. It does get heated up slightly, but that is to be expected.
