I decided to get m15x instead today at the PC fair with the given deal. 6599 with 6GB DDR3 and 260M GTX with core i7 as well.

Core i7 mate, 4 cores will win 2 cores in the future, confirmed especially when more programs utilize HT.

yes the 920QM is overkill with the price but not the 720QM

"Surmising this, the i7 720QM CPU is likely to be the winner of the value for money competition" quoted from notebook check review.
