    I'm trying to decide between the Y510P SLI, and the Clevo W370ST. I'd just like to be able to play Company of Heroes 2, and Diablo 3. The Clevo is about the same price, but has a 765M, and a 17" screen.

    Thanks!

    Get the Clevo. CoH2 will never support multi-GPU so your second 750M will be wasted. A 765M will be much faster in this case. A single 750M barely breaks 30 FPS even at 1024x768 and lowest settings. A 765M will do over 30 FPS at 1366x768 and Medium. CoH2 definitely has some serious optimization issues and brings even high-end desktops to their knees. It runs worse than Crysis 3.

    CoH 2 runs terrible on Multi-GPU laptops. Like the above said, buy a single-gpu laptop if you need to run that game.

    Blame the coders for making poorly optimized games.

    D3 is fine.
