That's very tempting. My hard price is $999. Might be worth it with the 512Gb SSD.

What are the order of the graphics cards offered in the Y740 and Y540 in order from worse to best? I dunno what I'm reading as far as graphics cards and what is good or not.

Bad deal.

Wait for BF guys..

The REFERENCE Dell laptop Deal is (last month)

model G5 SE, alpine white

9750h 6 core cpu
1660 Ti gpu
144hz screen, 15.6inch
8gb ram
256gb ssd
1 tb hdd

for $940.18 before tax w/ $235 rakuten points (1 year to spend), -5% discover paypal, some people had 10% discover paypal (targeted discount)

For me out the door, + Tax, $1006 -$235-$50 = ~$721

I can't say I can agree 100% with you. I mean this has a 16 GB ram. Also the Legion's build quality is probably a bit better than a Dell. I'd say this isnt a bad deal.

I assure you it's not better built. and an extra 8gb is not worth $300 price difference. you can buy 2x8gb of faster than stock cl 15 ram for $140 on sale.

You post this same post in every laptop thread, geez man just enjoy your laptop. You don't need to try and rationalize your purchase endlessly unless you're a Dell rep.

Sorry for being a die hard helpful slick deal community member.

You're actually complaining AGAINST deal hunting/referencing ?. https://static.slickdealscdn.com/ima...s/emot-LOL.gif

Often times, your quoted config isn't even better than the one in a topic though. You're just a spammer, troll or a shill.

For what its worth, i think this is an OK deal. There was a VERY slick deal on a legion y545 w/ almost the same exact specs but w/ a 60hz screen instead of 144hz, and 128GB SSD + 1TB instead of 512gb SSD for $800 back in August (expired now). Also since the y545 has worse thermals than the y540. I'm not sure if this was a once in a blue moon kind of deal but for $800 I feel like the y540 would be a very slick deal at $900. Let me know if I am crazy but i hope they have this exact laptop for $900 during BF. >.<

Except it is better, It's always better, otherwise you'd have a point

You just contradicted yourself. It's not "always better" - in this very thread your config isn't better. Unless you are going to find some way to rationalize why 8GB is better than 16GB.
