anything better than an alienware 14

[vshah]

friend is looking for a gaming laptop. size doesn't matter.

he has a coupon for an alienware 14 with:
i7 4700
gtx 765m
80gb ssd cache + 1tb hdd
16gb ram
1080p screen

for $1599

is there anything out there with better specs for the price?

Honestly, it might be tough. I'd prefer a Razer Blade because it's more portable, but it's $1,799 and doesn't include a secondary hard drive.

I purchased one of these about 3 weeks ago when it was $1199:

If it comes back in stock at $1299 I highly recommend it. Very nice gaming laptop.

You aren't going to find a gaming laptop with a better screen than the IPS option on the Alienware 14.

BUT 14" is very small, especially for 1920x1080

Yes, there are several options actually
