Q: Which one makes more sense to buy? "GL552VW-DH74 or GL502VT-BSi7N27" I am confused among these two.
A: I would recommend the GL552VW-DH74. The biggest differences between the two is that this model (DH74) contains an extra 1GB of discrete video graphics and the SSD where the operating system is installed. The SSD is nice because it gives you nice boot up times (takes the laptop 7 seconds or so to be fully operational after turning on). Aside from the extra muscle in graphics power, DVD drive, and the SSD - the DH74 and 7N27 are basically the same.
Q: can this laptop run gears of war 4?
A: OVERPRICED...but yes
Q: Can you upgrade the CD-Drive to a Blu-Ray player at a later time?
A: The DVD/CD drive cannot be upgraded later. An external Bluray drive can be connected however.
A: Yes, it will be able to run and play MMOs, such as World of Warcraft and Star Wars: The Old Republic at high settings. It can also run and play Diablo 3 and Overwatch at high settings. It meets the requirements to run the games.
Q: Can this laptop play pc games such as Age of Empires and Civilization 5?
A: Yes, it will be able to play and run games such as Age of Empires and Civilization 5 at high detail settings. It meets the requirements to run the game.
Q: Can this laptop run with Apollo twin USB Audio interface?
A: undefined
