http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=12347230 I'm gonna use it mostly for entertainment purposes (this will be my source of entertainment for 6 months since I will be living and working in disney)so the blu ray drive and the 17 inch screen are great for me,the graphics card is acceptable for the games I plan on playing(crysis,cod,fsx,rfactor),I was wondering if you guys think this is a good deal? btw is that a good processor for gaming?,is the 2mb l2 cache a big deal?,is any laptop ddr3 compatible? thanks for taking the time to answer these questions :)

Its worth it id say. Good CPU, and GPU. Has a bluray drive which is always nice, cept that the screen is a little low res to play those movies a max. You could always connect it to a TV if you want full HD.

I'll second that assessment. The limiting factor (as far as gaming is concerned) isn't usually the CPU. It's the graphics power of your GPU that usually limits what a game can do.
