DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER buying that Asus, it is HORRIBLY overpriced.

After doing a quick check around, the samsung wasn't all that bad of a deal actually, seems to be at least on par with other laptops that have similar specifications. The only one I've found pretty similar would be this one. It pretty much comes down to if you want a larger screen size or if you want a more powerful graphics card. Also, at the OP: Keep in mind that crossfire has 4:3 and 16:10 resolutions, so it may look slightly odd on a 16:9 screen. Also, just from past experience, we seem to have a lot of asus aspires come into the shop due to, "heating" problems, so make sure if you want to consider it to read up on any potential problems that it may have.

Ok so my honest opinion 1.6mhz duo core is a very weak cpu, 512 vid card is ok but for modern day gaming id go for a 1024mb or higher. I assume this is for gaming so I must push you in the direction of getting a tower instead of a laptop for the parts are far cheaper, there is more room for the parts you want to put in, And is far easier/compatible not to mention cheaper to upgrade when the time comes to it. Most laptops also become very hot at a quick rate and while playing games the battery life never lasts.
this is just my 2 cents goodluck!
