i got mine , i dont order from lowyat.

i got mine from car accesories shop for rm15 30cm X errr..damn long lol..

very cheap.

lowyat sellers are selling them way too expensive

@rickysim84 , your laptop support dual gpu right??So this model can we customly add in another gpu later if kena loteri??And besides that the RAM slot can be access easily so that we could add RAM??How about hard drive , support dual too??

@kailoonthedog

NP7280 (renamed to NP7282) can add two GPU (Crossfire/SLi mode) and 3x primary 2.5" hard drive (normal or RAID mode). If still not enough, can get rid of optical drive and install hard drive on caddy case to be put on optical drive slot.

Just unscrew a couple of screws can access everything at the bottom

LOL, all the while I thought NP7280/7282 has the same size as NP8170 which only comes with 2 HDD compartment. After checked in xoticpc website, it's true lol, NP7282 comes with 3 HDD compartments, switching the optical drive bay to HDD bay will give it a total of 4 HDD, really a monster!

I hope ricky is willing to show a detailed of laptop parts in his laptop's belly like how I did for my NP8170-S1 review.

By the way, ricky, isn't it 17.3" instead of 18.4"?

7280 is 300watt per power brick, if u buying 2 graphic card with 2 power brick = 600watt.

The carbon fibre that i am able to fnd now is 25sgd per square meter

I don't think he will be carrying around. That beast is so heavy, you wont be using it in a cafe on battery mode. Might as well buy another cheap netbook which is less than RM 1000 for mobility.

hmm, u mean usb hub? or usb from pcmcia slot?

for the batt duration, judging from the power it consume + small battery pack, i can say is bout 30 minute max. Wat i read from notebook review forum, they say is roughly 30 min too. i haven try yet xD

GTX485m doesn't support nvidia optimus technology??

i think support le, but my mobo arent running those second gen processor, so dun have optimus technology

Haha. I am everywhere.. Muhaha. I asked the lowyat seller whether can he ship to SG. He told me there will be additional shipping cost which is around RM18-19. That time, I have not place order for my laptop, so I didn't buy it from him.

wow, additional shipping cost tat much ah.. Singapore i really cannot find anyplace to get it.. how ah?

How about travel to JB and find any car accessories shop that sells carbon fiber sticker?

i think johor should be alot more expensive right due to the product come from singapore?

Oh. If you are in Singapore, there is another alternative.

In Sim Lim Square, one of the shop specializes in doing skins for laptops.

I think he charge $25 for Carbon Fiber sticker + stick-on service.

Oh, so you got yours done?
Is it the shop that is selling a lot of laptop accessories like keyboard skins, screen protectors, cooling pad etc.?
