So, how much is one willing to pay to have the ultimate gaming machine? A notebook with full specifications like our test WidowPC Sting 517D has will cost above and beyond what a normal notebook runs, but for that, it comes with the phenomenal design, excessive power, and a one-of-a-kind ownership experience that is to be expected of a notebook of this stature.

Out of all the 17” notebooks I have reviewed in the past year, the WidowPC Sting 517D has been my favorite. I do feel the price is a bit high, but I would not hesitate to recommend the Sting 517D to the extreme gamer with a good deal of cash to spare.
