Hi, I'm currently looking for a laptop to replace my incompetent overheat dell xps 1530 and throughout research through internet and experiences, I'm planning to order sager np8662 from mucro around mid of this November after my uni exam over.
Main reasons why i choose mucro probably because they offer warranty service at lowyat and I prefer it that way so that I can know whats wrong with my laptop and easier to make face-to-face contact with them.
Here's the specs I'm choosing:
Mucro Sager NP8662

However I have few things that I would like to know:
1. Is this specs is good enough for any upcoming games next year such as starcraft 2 or diablo 3?
2. Will I be facing heat problems with this specs particularly the HDD heat?
3. Does the 500G 7200rmp generate more heat than the 300G 7200rmp?
4. The window 7 home premium, is it 64 or 32 bit? Cause I prefer 32-bit or the 64-bit have more advantages than 32-bit?
5. What happen to the option of 15.4" (16:10) WUXGA (1920x1200) with Matt Finished Type Screen because the last time I check the option was available?
6. How long will the laptop reach here in Malaysia from Singapore? I'm staying in Selangor, Subang Jaya.
Sorry for asking too many questions, I'm still new to this sager laptop
Oh and by the way, I noticed that mucro have give 2% discount for the laptop price but the warranty price also increases a bit. Pretty smart attracting the customers and maintaining the price at the same time XD
you will notice there is almost zero complain about hardware and overheat.
