For 999, you can get an i5, 4gb ram, Geforce 640m, and 64 gb ssd.

This is a pretty damned impressive tablet I have to say. The battery life is pretty good at "tablet" tasks, 8 hours, but only 2 hours with intensive gaming (although to be fair, there are not that many good gaming laptops with long battery life, 2 hours is pretty good)
For extra, you can get a controller grip (pretty much required for serious gaming)
the screen res is a bit low, only 1366 * 768, but than, realistically, the GPU can probably push no more than that.
This tablet gets my attention, in my opinion, it is a much better deal than the highest spec ipad at 850$
