EXPIRED - Refurbished Advent 6555 (MSI GT725 rebrand) Q9000 Quad core, ATI 4850, 4GB,250GB HDD, Blu ray, 17" for £799.99 @ PC world


£799.99

-38°

FOUND BY: owais 5 months, 1 week ago

i just got one for £760 a few days ago from dixons but seem to have removed it from there as its probably too eem with the discount, its still at pc world and currys.

mine is 100% like new and perfect.

its got a quad core and a ati 4850 which is good for games even thouggh i dont play them.
its got a really good screen and speakers with bass at the bottom. its good for films which is why i got it because of the hdmi,blu ray, screen and speakers.

although its by far the cheapest quad core you can find and its really fast and good for games with the 4850(very good).

Its just a rebranded MSI GT725 which is about £1200-1300 elsewhere, plus i like this as it looks nice and not bright red like the msi.
so the build quality is great as MSI make good laptops and its made by them.

Because a lot of users of this site are morons they see laptops at more then £350/£400 and intently vote them cold, without looking at the details.

If I was in the market for a new laptop I’d definitely be interested,

this is a rebranded MSI which is about £1200+.
its a Really fast laptop with a quad core and a ATI 4850.
i dont think anyone can find a cheaper quad with a gpu this good at this price.

and even though i dont play games, i watched a good multimedia machine which is quick... and this is.
if you look at the site there are crappy dells mostly that arnt 1/4 as quick as this around this price....

the laptop got voted hote a few months ago when it was £950, now that its going for £799, its cold? retards...

You got 9C heat from me. Hot deal for a good gaming laptop. Screen resolution is a bit low but that'll mean you'll be able to run practically all games at native res with AA and AF.

I think this is a pretty good deal on a good gaming laptop, nice find. Cant find anything with a comparable spec in this price range. I know its refurbished but you still get a full 12 month warranty from the manufacturer so shouldnt be any problems.

cant understand why this is cold, heat from me

ppl who dont game would vote this cold plu its an advent refurb. but i think itsan excellnt deal due to qaud core cpu and good graphics card.
even tho its a reurb the dsg group offers 12 months warranty on refurb items. I think pcw have run out of stock.
