Aww, cut it out~ *blushes*

LOL, just joking wink.gif

I was planning to get 1 for myself, but I can't find the right device yet.

G53SW was close, but a stock 2720QM was not available with this model.

Sony even released a F217 model that stocks with the 2820QM, why not ASUS release maybe a model of G series esp the G53 and G73 with 2720QM and a GTX460m or GTX560m?

anyway, for your laptop..you can try sager wink.gif..full customizable just like alienware tongue.gif

Ya, but somehow I still prefer the ASUS due to warranty issues, design & additional features like Turbo4Gear.

I just couldn't get over the G53 yet, I need time to mend by heartache unsure.gif

The Sager 8150 has 1 hdd bay only, that's another let down for me.

And it doesn't have a built-in bluetooth unlike the G53, sob..

Try brainwashing me blink.gif

Ntg else better than MSI GT680? =(

Seriously, that's 1 of the best 15inch laptop? =/

Sager wun hv a built in BT once I upgrade to the 6300, sob..

Regarding space, u're kinda rite.. I dun reli hv much use for an extra HDD, but sumhow I feel it will serve a purpose, RAID I suppose?

I'm in a dilemma, sigh..

Tell me about Sager's warranty.

Oh the Great Viruz019, enlighten me with your knowledge! XD

Ya, but I can't have the same rig as my little brother. It's like, once he takes that model, he won't expect me to be having the same model as his.

This MSI GT680 is a great model, has 2 HDD bay (stock with 2x 500GB 7200 HDD), turbo fan mode (you won't need to bring along a cooling fan when you're out, convenient!) and great Dynaudio speakers.

MSI fans out there, I won't hesitate to tell you all that this MSI GT680 is definitely worth it, so go grab it! XD

Therefore, I have to source for another model which is as great or even better than his model. (I can't lose to him) XD

Ya, I want the 6300 for the extended range, I have problems like this in my house, so I expect this to be useful even in public wink.gif

I wun take Alienware, not worth the bang for bucks.
The least, ASUS dun sell their stealth fighter gaming series laptops as expensive as Alienware.

I'm only worried about Sager's warranty, mind explaining?

Mucro?

Looks like I won't buy Sager from Gentech if that's the case.
I've checked Mucro but they don't offer a change on screen display for the 8150-S1, sad.
And Mucro is overpriced by a little =/

Well, bluetooth isn't that important anyway, I'll heed to u.

I wonder when I can get a laptop that has a GTX560m and a stock 2720QM processor, it would be perfect. I gues it's too late for me to take the 460m right?

well..yeah true..though there's still no sighting of gtx560m gc out there yet *I think* for a 15" laptop..u can owes PM mucro for details..bt then if u add in the delivery fee..mucro would be more or less the same + less hassle when u wanna send it to warranty..but i have used 5 laptops so far and all of them do last me for sometime witout a problem..at most is reformatting thatz all

Well, GTX 560m is said to be released by July, that's a long wait Y_Y
Ya, u're right too, for the sake of convenience, the extra cost would be fine.


QUOTE(viruz019 @ Mar 25 2011 @ 06:21 PM)
yeap..probably difference is parts + slight design..maybe new heatsink or better cooling system? tongue.gif..if MSI Gaming Series 7 is released, im gonna be really tempted to grab it again T_T
If it's like the GX780, it'll be nice and sleek.. Stylish in black, so cool =)

Btw, u own so many laptops, how u get all those $ @_@

lol..my hand is always itchy to try new product out wa  laugh.gif  bad habit though  cry.gif

my laptop list since 2008 tongue.gif

Dell XPS M1530 -> Dell XPS M1730 (Dual 8700m GT) -> Dell XPS M1730 (Dual 8800m GTX) -> MSI GX620/630 (forget 620 or 630) -> MSI GX660r..among all of these, i love the m1530 and the 660r..the rest don't give me good impression..still can imagine the m1730 when it used to be the strongest..and also the hottest..gaming for like 30 min and i guarantee you, if u break an egg on the laptop especially the top left corner, ur egg will cook XD

i always buy n sell so yea smile.gif..i guess im too obsess with tech + games ><
*
I thought u'd fancy the 17 inchers more because they are usually cooler with better ventilation and gives space for better GPU upgrades like SLI etc..

Lol, 'ur egg', mayb I'm getting it wrongly but it's funny XD

Wow, I'm obsessed too, but I'm not sure I can invest as much and as fast as you..

Anyone tried Crysis 2 already?

It's out already rite?

hahaha..17" is great..after trying out m1730..i gave up on 17"..17" gaming laptop is purely for desktop replacement..carrying around a 17" gaming laptop is really uncomfortable..since i travel alot so i just stick with 15"..besides i got my pc to handle my gaming needs smile.gif

haha..when i say egg..i mean the real egg that we eat for breakfast tongue.gif..hahah..i buy sell buy sell..everytime just add a lil bit of $$ + i do part time to gain some lil extra income tongue.gif

crysis 2! i haven tried sad.gif..haven buy it ><..and wanna change my graphic card before trying..obsess wid maxing out the settings for games especially like crysis tongue.gif..doubt my 5850 can put max settings ><
*
Ya, 15 inchers rock!! =)

Sumhow I hope even that an ATI 6970m or Nvidia GTX 485m would be able to handle Crysis 2 at max settings.

Looking at the previous Crysis, d 1st of the series, maxing the settings would provide a near playable frame rate, imagine the graphics demand blink.gif

But I've heard that dis new CryEngine3 would not demand such graphical capacity and still provide graphical improvements, I just can't wait to play it drool.gif

You use 5850? Not 5870? I thought u're currently using GX660?

Don't tell me you're upgrading to 6970.. ohmy.gif

People, any news about GT780? I love the design!!

haha..i used to play crysis on 9800gtx at almost full settings..playable though will hve really low frame rate from time to time, then i try 5850, max settings in crysis warhead with max settings..same thing but higher fps at least tongue.gif

i mean my desktop is using ati HD5850..laptop is 5870m..planning to replace my graphic card to gtx470 biggrin.gif

GT780, don't put high hopes on it, MSI announce a few laptop and end up not building it..no idea why..but this GT780 sure looks good..but they take away Dynaudio sad.gif

--------------------------------------------------

updates: check this out! Seems like the GT780 not only have backlight, but backlight with colors! standing up agaisnt alienware? tongue.gif

Cool, the gaming experience u had in Crysis with those high end GPU that u had in the past must be eye-opening *jealous*

U planning to change to GTX470? Y not the GTX580 or GTX590 instead since u're up for high end?

Well, since the GT780 will have the GTX560m, definitely 2nd quarter of this year at least..

The backlit keyboard is added but they removed the dynaudio, I don't think it's a great idea..

However, isn't THX alright? The sound ain't that bad right? blink.gif

hahaha, it's just alright tongue.gif..there are more addicting games like DotA tongue.gif

GTX470 is around RM11xx - 12xx..if i sell my current one..i still need to pay like RM800 lol..im still a student btw tongue.gif..so it will be hard to fork out that much sad.gif..to much things to change! T_T..need change casing again *sigh*..then now my car got problem T_T

anyway, for the speakers, well they din announce properly..+ it's still not in production yet tongue.gif..maybe it could be dynaudio? but they are keeping it low? tongue.gif..anyway, the THX + Dobly Digital..i don't really use em..i find normal still sounds better =/..except watchin movie though..it does makes a bit different
*
GTX470 is that expensive? shocking.gif

But if u wanna buy the 470, y not aim for 570 or 6970?

I heard 6970 is better and more affordable.. But seriously, I can't believe the 470 to be that expensive, omg..

U're a student at Cyberjaya? MMU? LKW?

I'm impressed, u're so willing to fork our so much $ for ur com..

Well, we jz gota hope MSI releases the GT780 with nice equipments and specs. N it muz b better than the GT680 =x

Ya, steelseries keyboard, it's just so cool!!

I've always heard about SteelSeries with their professional gaming gears..

If so, the keyboard in the GT780 must be very good, sensitive & anti-ghosting etc.. drool.gif

GTX570* not 470..i make a typo HAHA tongue.gif

6970..i check benchmark it lose to GTX570 + Crysis favors Nvidia more T_T..so i'll have to abandon ATI..for now brows.gif

yeap! im a student! studying at lim kok wing uni biggrin.gif..ur here too? maybe i should organize a meet out for MSI User *YES! NOT JUST GAMING NOTEBOOK! >=D*

jeffrey! i wanna say 2 thing..THANK YOU FOR HELPING US! wub.gif + showing this addicting pictures! 2ndly, I HATE YOU! T_T now i wanna sell my gx660r and camp for this 780! i never noe it's by steelseries also! omg omg..now wonder if the speaker is good or not tongue.gif..jeffrey, mind sharing with us your thoughts regarding the notebook? smile.gif

i couldn't agree more T_T
BTW, Lonelywolf, guess u noe wat laptop to buy for urself now  whistling.gif

Owh I see, that explains it now.. Still, it's expensive ohmy.gif

The GTX580 is expensive by a 150USD which accumulates to almost RM500? But what I see now in Malaysia, most GTX580s are being sold at around 1800, wow..

LKW student? What are you studying?

Sadly, I'm not from LKW tongue.gif
However, I hav a relative working there, 1 does networking(website maintenance etc) while another assists the superiors XD

I'm still unsure I'll be a MSI user or not, I aim for 15 inchers because 17 inchers are too big for me, and my lil brother already has 1 of the best of MSI, the GT680, no way I'm getting the same 1 as his.

So, I'm still playing the waiting game hmm.gif

Man, I envy Jeffrey, I wish to go to Cebit & CES every year Y_Y
