So I've used the model sold by Amazon for a few days and have had a great experience with it. The description of the product is confusing; this is a model with a 1080p screen, dual SLI 750m configuration, 1TB hard drive (a little under 900gb useable), 8gb RAM, and no SSD cache.Pros:*The 1080p anti-glare screen actually does its job. Could not ask more from a laptop screen. Bright and vivid.*The keyboard is of a very nice quality, and the backlighting is a neat feature.*The sound is the best I've heard from a laptop.*The SLI 750m configuration will blow past most modern games at 1080p and at high/ultra settings. (BF3 runs at a solid 45fps if you turn shadows down to high and MSAA down a notch)*Speedy and responsive setup, Windows 8 is great if you take the time to get used to it. Boots in under 25 seconds (and this is without the SSD cache available in higher end models).Neutral/Things to Consider:*The edges are sharp; this...

I believe the other reviews have already described how fast and sleek this machine is and the value that you're getting in a laptop that can actually run modern games and do video editing at this price point. I agree with those sentiments. However, I felt compelled to give potential buyers some more information regarding the product description.I bought the IdeaPad Y510P - Model Name: 20217.1. This model does come with two NVIDIA 750M video cards in SLI configuration.2. The 1 TB 5400 RPM hard drive is partitioned into 2 drives. One primary one and a smaller 24gb partition for Lenovo's system backup.3. This model does NOT come with an on board SSD hard drive to cache windows. I was curious if I could simply buy a small mSata hard drive and install it myself to speed up windows a bit. Upon opening the case, the area where the mSata SSD is supposed to go does NOT contain a connector to plug in an aftermarket mSata drive. The mSata...
