My current laptop runs fine. Its just in this year, I've had two different laptop models from HP and all have had to get their screens repaired because they're probably made by 5 year old children somewhere in rural china. So I plan to get it fixed and get what I can for it somehwere and put it towards this build. What do you guys think?

After looking at it and being told, its practically a 4770 with no integrated graphics. It's also cheaper than a 4770!
