QUOTE(amduser @ Mar 10 2010, 07:04 PM) GPU is around 49c to 53c like that, full load maximum 82c, hardly reach full load when the fan is full speed. Oh. Okay then. Guess it's normal for us to get temps like those. XDi dont have the picture of the temperature reading, only got benchmark results with the temperature.  |

QUOTE(amduser @ Mar 11 2010, 12:27 AM) most of the laptop also get the same idle temp, what important is the temp of GPU under constant full load Guess it's because of where we live too. Our temps are kinda high compared to other places. Oh well, nothing we can do about that, unless we live in a freezer. LoL! My max temp at load for GPU (2 hours of GTA IV) is 79 degrees. For CPU, 82 on one core and the rest are below 80 (Any idea why this happens?).   Gotta love Sager's cooling system. I think when I repaste, I'll see a bit of a reduction, hopefully. |

QUOTE(amduser @ Mar 12 2010, 12:16 AM) after few hours of starcraft 2 Your HDD is very hot! O_O Other than that, max temp for CPU after few hours of gaming... that's just awesome. [attachmentid=1478911] the minimum temperature is not correct since i run this software halfway during my gaming. |

QUOTE(Freesite @ Mar 20 2010, 06:43 PM) Hello, I just bought a NP8690 from mucro.asia but it stuck at clearance process since yesterday morning. Is this normal? And it take how long to complete the process? It's normal. Took about a day and a half to get cleared. No need to worry. It'll pass through without problems. |

QUOTE(nitevision92 @ Mar 23 2010, 11:18 AM) Just asking, if I order from xoticpc.com, will Mucro Asia handle the warranty? Or will I have to order from MA? Xoticpc and MA have no ties whatsoever. Why would they handle each others warranties? I doubt you'd have much problems with these laptops. To make it easier, order from MA since they're based in SG. Closer and easier to claim for warranties. |

QUOTE(Freesite @ Mar 23 2010, 05:47 PM) Hi hi, I just finish installing OS and driver. I found out that my GPU running at 66C and CPU at 55C in idle. Is that normal? Room temps? Your GPU seems a bit too hot... My CPU idles at that temp too. So I guess it's no big. Provide a screenshot of your temps and also try and get your ambient temps, if you can. |

Hmmm.... to upgrade to the HD5870 or not to upgrade. That is the question. Overall cost... around RM 1.5k.
Card: 1070 IC7: 144 Labour: 120 Shipping: 200 XD Any comments? |

QUOTE(Freesite @ Mar 31 2010, 10:34 AM) I think this is not worth the upgrade for RM1.5k. http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=472024Although I didnt find any 5870m vs 280m benchmark but I found this... 285m vs 5870m The 285m is a bit higher clock of 280m, 585MHz vs 576MHz, not by much. As you can see in the benchmark, beside the vantage and DX11 game, the 285m and 5870m run neck to neck. This is just my opinion. The choice is still yours. That shows a remarkable increase in performance.  |

QUOTE(setoyo @ Apr 1 2010, 09:02 PM) Got mine this afternoon after rearrange the delivery.... Congrats on getting your laptop and welcome to the club! Sooo.... excited... hehe... 2 thumbs up for sager... superb beast... will update later on some pic... right now, installing 7, some benchmarks stuff.. ati 10.3... drivers... Cheers... Once you post some benchmarks, I think I'll choose whether or not to upgrade to the HD5870. Please include the temps of the system. Sidenote: Anyone can suggest me a good courier to send back my laptop with? Asked TNT and they quoted me RM 240. I also need one that has a packaging service because I threw out my box. XD |

Your GPU heatsink sits perfectly on the core? Seems to be that way from your pics.

Hopefully my upgrade will go smooth. Once they email me that they have the GPU in their hands, I will send my laptop back to them for the HD5870 upgrade. Wheee!

QUOTE(ineser @ Apr 9 2010, 06:46 AM) Where you send your laptop to? Mucro? How much they charge you? Yeah, gotta send it back to them. RM 1.5k for the whole thing including shipping. Thats the good thing about Sager eh, can upgrade! Both CPU and GPU right? RM 1070 for GPU RM 120 for Labour RM 144 for IC7 RM 200 for Shipping That's the best part about these Clevo's/Sagers, when you want to upgrade, you can and don't need to buy a new system. Also, you don't need to worry over your temps. I did get a 95*C temp when I played Sim City Societies. I guess there was just too much going on on the screen at the time. XD |

So I can change it myself... Can? As for the case of IC7, to quote Mucro.Asia: "You are paying for the service, not the tube itself." I really need to ask for that tube. ~_~ |

QUOTE(amduser @ Apr 9 2010, 08:18 PM) software - i'd say both equal, alienware might come with more software, but that doesn't mean it is good, who knows i might say sager utility software is better, their hotkey software dont take much of my resources and most importantly it wont minimize my games when i use the hotkey, unlike HP hotkey software, well i never use alienware before, so i cant say much about this. +1.hardware - +/- difference new technology - not even your pendrive can support 3.0 pricing - sager win, reason is obvious quality control - alienware and dell?! WHAT?! i side with sager for quality control heating problem - you mean np8690 have overheat problem? LOL....  discount - who cares, if you got the budget already and you still want for more discount? gaming laptop at this price range is very cheap, go get a desktop if want better specs. And... I've never heard of the term "overheating" on these Sagers, unless the user meddles with the heatsink or other crap. And... No such thing as "free delivery". Look at Dell and that's what "free delivery" gets you. This post has been edited by SonicSpyro: Apr 9 2010, 08:22 PM |

QUOTE(amduser @ Apr 10 2010, 11:58 PM) sager customers hardly get faulty unit, so the warranty doesn't really necessary I agree with you 100% on this. I don't care if it's expensive. They have great build quality. That's the main point for me.  i wonder who want to change to other brand after using sager  if i wanna change another laptop, i will buy sager again for sure. Hope my NP8690 will last till at least 3 years or until I'm very tempted to get a new laptop, which would probably be another Sager. Weight? Not a problem. Gives me extra exercise! @tanjq87, Welcome to the club. Good job on picking out the IC7. You can do partial payment to them. It doesn't matter as long as you state your order number in your transaction details. |
