Masters of Mobile Computing, appreciate your help

1. Preferred Brand: no Acer
2. Budget: Less than 3.8K including RAM upgrade if required
3. Usage: Photoshop, Illustrator, Xilisoft video converter, heavy powerpoint/excel user with heavy formatting
4. Preferred laptop/screen size
- Screensize: 15 inch
- Processor: i7
- SSD
- backlit keyboard would be nice

Perhaps, N550JV OR Y510P OR Shall I wait?
