Matte screens are more common on expensive buisness class notebook, most consumer notebooks that you will find today will come with glossy screens, but sager does offer the matte screen but as an upgrade. If feel the matter screen is a must, and willing to sacrifice gpu performance, then check Sager NP5165, starting at $869, you could upgrade the matte screen and quad core and still be with in your $1100 budget, but at the cost of having a GT555m instead of a GTX560m.
There are no i5 quads like in desktops, all quads on laptops are i7, the i7 2630qm is the base line, which is still a very good cpu for a laptop. All i5 are dual cores, if you need a quad, just gotta go with i7.
Careful here, the 1.5gb and 3gb are the ones to go for, they come with 192bit, while the 1gb and 2gb are bestbuy water down versions that come with 128bit.
The 480m, 485m and 580m are high end mobile gpus, on a league on their own, the only other gpus that compete with them are AMD 6970/6990m. The GTX560m is more value oriented gpu, still good perfromance for the price (contrary to what the GTX580m is with almost $800 per gpu), but still is like 40% behind it. Drivers will never make up that difference.
Seems like a great price for the hardware it has, remember to go for the quad core i7 2630qm at least, its only $30, as BF3 does use 4 cores.
