What is really disappointing is that Acer is really close to having an excellent desktop replacement. If they could figure out how to make a nice keyboard and trackpad and add a matte screen, then the Acer Aspire 7552G would be an incredible value even if it cost $100 more.

The Acer Aspire AS7552G-6436 desktop replacement is a good gaming laptop, but everything else is middle of the road.

The only reason why you might consider the Acer Aspire AS7552G-6436 is for its gaming prowess. A good graphics chip and a big hard drive are its saving graces, and even then, the laptop is priced a little too high for the uninspiring results of its quad-core processor. If you're going to spend this kind of money, I rather you spend a little more for a better design and overall performance that you get from the Dell XPS 15 and the HP Pavilion dv7-4283cl.

AMD Radeon HD 6650M: Successor of the Mobility Radeon HD 5650 with more cores, UVD3 processor and Eyefinity+. Due to the same codename, the 6650M should be a HD 6750M with slow DDR3 memory.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

N950: Mobile Quad-Core CPU with 2.1 GHz clock speed. Because of the missing Level 3 Cache and no Turbo, the N930 is not well suited for games.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
17.3": Meanwhile the 17 inch display size is a more frequently offered standard format for desktop-replacements. The DTR-laptops can't be carried easily, need much energy but on the other side texts can be read easily and high resolutions are no problem. DTR mainly are intended for stationary usage on desks, where the weight and the energy need are unimportant.
