If im a moderate gamer (around 2-3 hours per day)

Which would fit me best?

the Z400 or the Y400/GT750M?

depends if you are urgent to get the laptop or not. the Y400 will be better as GT750M is better for higher game settings.

since Y400 has better cooling than Z400, so it is up to you to make the decision. no need to wait for haswell as haswell will be released in Q3 2013.

For sure Y400. Despite it's normal form factor (bulkier than Z400), you have more upgrade options for the dock.
Another problem for Z400 is hot touchpad. After you use the laptop for sometimes, the touchpad becomes "hot" and can be annoying to your finger. laugh.gif

Both have bad viewing angle. Considering it has big GPU powerhouse, using TN panel is normal (production cost cutting). smile.gif

Thanks for the review, man. Review from the real user is more honest. Btw, you might wanna edit on the touch version price (They are higher than the non-touch version).

One question, does all variances have the backlit keyboard? icon_question.gif

Screen - Is there any dead pixel?
Keyboard - Is every alphabet working?
Webcam - Working?
Temperature - Overheating when stressed?

These are the things I shall check, generally.
