dun compare mobility and full powered desktop....
I know...desktop sure wins..
even my AMD Phenom II X4 965BE gaming desktop also feel hella better....the only thing I use this is bcoz of mobility, and have enough strength to pull off everything I need

Performance wise, desktop is always better than mobility.....not even high end desktop replacement laptop can win a pure high end gaming desktop.....
Laptop is all about mobility....so actually buying it no need those expensives 1....like ASUS ROG series, Alienware etc.
Laptop is light usage....not for heavy usage...

Dear all sifus,

I have another problem with reinstall, I have to change the booting from UEFI to OS Legal, then only USB can work.

Another thing is, windows 8 said my hdd partition is gpt, thus windows is unable to install, anyone please help?

fresh new installation, remove all your partition...the become unallocated space....
the recreate ur partition there, format and install...
