Neh, I was referring to all brands... I don't think they update as fast as the people here
Its going to be a problem that they're going to have to handle eventually

Your Qosmio was one of the 1st with the new (by then) i5-520M and GT330M o

Wah.... guess like I'm really gonna have to wait until April or May for the new, rectified SB processors

Better safe than sorry? hehehe

I guess compromises have to be made then
Anyway, Happy Chinese New Year bro

Update on the SB issue: Intel and OEMs Find Workaround for Chipset Issue, Sandy Bridge Notebooks to Ship Again

Quoted from the article: "Because the chipset error does not affect the first two SATA ports on the motherboard, Intel has agreed to resume shipments of the affected boards as long as OEMs promise not to use the other four ports. On notebooks, the only devices that attach to SATA ports are the hard drives, optical drives, and eSATA ports. Considering that most notebooks have just one hard drive, one optical drive, and no eSATA ports, most systems should be able to ship without a problem. Notebooks that have dual hard drives or eSATA ports can still ship as long as the vendor uses a third-party SATA controller card for those extra ports."

How high can the MacBook Pro get?
My Satellite M500 managed to get up to 80C+ during gaming

Wah, that's hot

According to sifus in desktops section, it seems the desktop SB are fixed already. Flawless ones will be available by March... notebooks one not sure haha... I think may require a longer period?

Well, we'll be seeing new models quite soon

Need to wait a few months or so....
If you ask me, since you've come this far, hold on a little longer...
It'll definitely be worth the wait

Super powerful laptop ar
Its one of notebookcheck's top pick for a gaming machine: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Schenk...HM.46526.0.html

I'm impressed
And its not as expensive as I initially thought

I feel you as well....
Sometimes when you wait too long for something you really coveted... when you really get the item, no feel adi

Yes, the battery life has improved significantly. Really a great improvement
Before SBs there's almost no 15 inchers which can last so long on one charge...
