QUOTE(Prince J @ Nov 3 2014, 03:39 PM) The trend is that laptops are getting thinner and thinner. According to Intel conference, starting from 2015 all laptop CPU will be soldered on board, so as to GPU. The reason is that GPU MXM slot and CPU PGA adds at least 1 to 1.5cm thickness to the laptop. That being said, there might be no more MXM GPU and CPU PGA productions, Nvidia GTX970M/980M might be the last cards using MXM GPU slots. Choosing a laptop depends on laptop GPU/CPU upgradability is not wise decision. so that marks the end of futureproof upgradable laptop from clevo? |

QUOTE(-kytz- @ Nov 4 2014, 08:35 AM) Why is the dual fan exhaust positioned right in front of the user? You do know that hot air would be blowing at both your hands.. ur viewing it a wrong angle. This is bottom view. Vents will not blow towards the user, common sense. |

QUOTE(Prince J @ Nov 4 2014, 11:11 AM) 2.5" 9.5mm/7mm SATA slot is underneath the battery. That's an odd placement for 2.5" to locate. Mechanicle hard drive tend to produce heat and over time, its not good for the battery to stay too close to battery. |

QUOTE(Prince J @ Nov 4 2014, 11:31 AM) The HDD has a very good caddy housing it, it doesn't contact the battery and trackpad directly. That's why you won't feel warm on the trackpad. Yes, but airflow wise, the heat from HDD will stay between the HDD and the battery.  |

QUOTE(Arvinaaaaa @ Nov 4 2014, 11:50 AM) Thats why use solid state drive which comes default..problem solved if there is any  SSD is expensive for its price. That's why Mechanical HDD or SSHD still prefered for Storage since there's already 2 mSata enough to load OS. |
