Only option that keeps this from being a great deal is not having a backlit keyboard, other than that according to the Best Buy website its showing 1600 x 768 resolution which is good.

I'm seeing it posted here as 1920x*1200*

best buy has an answer from Asus that it is 1920x1080, but the specs on best buy do incorrectly show it's the lower resolution another poster mentioned, which is concerning

I Googled 2 other sites and your resolution seems to be correct. WUXGA.

300 nits a bit low, but great price for WUXGA (1920 x 1200) 16:10 aspect ratio.

Also room to expand RAM to 16GB. Don't know if anyone has tried to pop a bigger chip in there but 12GB is plenty for most.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank ghostfreckle

It's a nice chip, but already 3 years old and doesn't have the 680m or 780m igpus for decent gaming.

Thank OP! My wife is a teacher and doesn't need anything gaming. Just basic stuff and I'm an old man but after a crash course on this website comments, I think this'll be enough....I hope this'll be enough. Snagged one.

I've been using a similar model for about year (casual use) and rarely have problems with it. I just wish it had a touch screen.
