The first thing you see is the uniquely designed casing and then you turn on this beast and you see the power. This is a gaming laptop no question from the aggressively designed case to the power under the case. The one we looked at had a Intel Core 2 Extreme processor and 4GB of DDR3 RAM. 

The case looks great but it does make this laptop hard to move around. So I recommend this as a desktop replacement. The laptop itself weighs 9 pounds with a 17-inch screen. 

Here are the specifications for the Toshiba X305 and at the bottom is my final rating. 

• Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit
• Intel Core™2 Extreme Processor QX9300 
  
• 4GB PC3-8500 DDR3 1066MHz SDRAM
• 448GB: 128GB SSD + 320GB (7200rpm)
• DVD-SuperMulti (+/-R double layer) with Labelflash drive
• Wireless LAN (802.11b/g/n)
• Bluetooth 2.1
• 512MBx2 NVIDIA® GeForce® 9800M GTS with SLi

This laptop has a lot of power but it is pricey the one we tested cost's $2699 and it's missing some features the competition has. It's missing a Blu-ray player and the screen's resolution isn't better than the competition. 

I give this laptop 3.5 starts out of 5 because it still has a fast processor and a great graphics card. If you don't mind not having a Blu-ray and don't mind a the bulky design then this is the laptop for you. If you don't then I can't recommend this laptop for you.
