Which one is better VFM or is there anything better than these?
I'm inclined towards ASUS as I've compared both in a store and found ASUS's screen to be better looking. Also read fantastic reviews about ASUS cooling system but at the same time slamming their after sales service.

If the answer is Lenovo then I'd need to rush since the offer is short-lived (although it keeps coming back under different guises but unpredictably)
 
The answer is always ASUS .. (if u got the mooolah .. :D)

Lenovo is VFM gaming champ here.

ASUS is PFM ( . power for moneeyzz) :)
 
ASUS G73 is really a great machine

Many Y560 users reported issues with display and BIOS so i have opted the DELL XPS 15

If you can get G73 then go for it

Else i recommend XPS 15 with i5 dude
 
I'd take the Asus hands down. Much better specs+Gfx+Design+MOST IMP it has a Full HD display! Google and check the reviews for it
 
ASUS G73JH FTW. The one listed at best buy for 1199 USD with a i7 740/ 6 GB/ 640 GB/ & HD 5870 is really the "best buy"
