fairly slim for a 17" gaming laptop. Gaming Laptop redefined by Razer.

I don't understand, what is the gaming with that spec?

If you want to define gaming by the thickness, well I don't see how its relevant. If specs, then yes.

What GC can m17x-R1 support? Mr.Doc?
Thinking to change.. lazy for research.. lol

QUOTE(julchin_09 @ Sep 2 2011, 03:28 AM)
The lat time Doc mentioned, the R-1 is limited in updating to the newer 6000 series cards. As far as I know, only the M17x-r2 is capable of taking these newer cards with the possibility of 2 2GB Gpus at a time, of course with the help of dual PSU's running parallel into the system... (Kelvin-Hata)

Unfortunately yea, there is no further BIOS support for newest GPU dedicated to our motherboard. No one officially try with ATi HD6970/6990 yet tho.

If you are around Penang area, you can PM Kelvin_Hata for the meet up. I am sure that kind gentelman willing to offer you free trial to our motherboard. I'd received the offer from him previously but no transport to there sweat.gif

OMFG... so only can stick to my GTX280 SLI?

So far, yes. I am sad that we are missing the awesome effect of DirectX11 sad.gif

Thats the major downside that we are currently face.

QUOTE(julchin_09 @ Sep 2 2011, 03:36 AM)
Im not sure if GTX 285M works?
*
GTX285M undergo slight micro-architecture adaptation toward i7 motherboard. Only minor performance increment with lack of Dx11 support (basically its GTX280M + little boast by overclocking)

OMG thanks bro for the sharing!

But instead of trying with ATi HD5870, better go straight to ATi HD6970 and above! rclxms.gif
