does the illegear laptops used the sandy bridge or the newer ivy bridge?
*
they are ivy bridge processors. when the processor mentions 3rd generation, it means ivy bridge.

example : i7-3840QM. the 3 from the start is the generation, the rest is model and the QM stands for Quad core Mobile perhaps.

Hello! Does anyone know about shipping details from US to UK?

Am planning to order a Sager from US and not sure whether I should ship it to Malaysia or ship it to UK directly, since I am currently staying in the UK.
*

hi wanna ask that sager laptop
how is the warranty and how much will it cost?
budget 3k got what spec?
*
warranty service is pretty good but extending it might be a bit pain. you might want to ask the representative PrinceJ about it to get best price.

budget RM3000 get can Illegear RS-11, basic spec.

cause i find out if compare with other gaming laptop
this laptop like not so famous
hmm the warranty is something like dell?
they onsite support?
bro
11 inch is it too small ?XD
*
sager is a US company and originally based on clevo, a taiwanese computer company. there same goes to illegear, the only authorized sager laptop reseller in malaysia with their own clevo based products which is named illegear too.

their on-site warranty support so far only supported in KL, Johor and Singapore.

with RM3000 budget, you cant get cheapest 15" model except if your budget is RM3500-RM4000.

btw, anyone realise the keyboard is not registering the key after period of time? is there any aftermarket keyboard i can buy?
*
sager/clevo is known for keyboard ghosting. its just like you have to slam the keyboard to get the key registered.

i find out the msi price cheaper than the re-15
but got what difference? spec look similar
*
MSI offered by Illegear is a barebone laptop so its cheaper. the difference is graphics card and hdd size.

even if sager release a 600W brick, the size will be an 8" tablet. sweat.gif

hmm.gif Whats the difference between P9570 and np9370 ? Spec looks the same .. dual Sli. But then again P9570 use 2 power brick ?? So power hungry laptop meh !!  rclxub.gif
*
the NP9370 uses mobile quad core processor with 2 hard drive bays, while the NP9570 uses desktop processor with 3 hard drive bays.

and yes, desktop powered processor is more power hungry than laptop processor. so if you select dual graphics on NP9570, you will be given 2 bricks.

Thank you, I did just that.. Another question... Any guides to cleaning my laptop (heatsink fan, etc)? It's been 2 years and it desperately need some cleaning. I'm handy with tools but don't want to screw it up...
*
sager is easy to disassemble. you just need a philips and flathead screwdriver, and you are on the go. smile.gif

turn your laptop upside down, remove the back cover screws and remove the back cover. then you can start cleaning the fans and heatsink.

hey guys, want to ask if i can upgrade my gpu, Sager np9170? currently using 7970m..
*
yes it is possible to upgrade the GC on a P170EM. HD8970M is available on ebay now.

as for GTX780M, you need to wait for someone else to modify the vBIOS.
