Mind puttting up pic???

And specs as well?

9800GTX SLi + 3.33Ghz Core 2 Duo is

my heart sorta did a flip when i remembered its all in a laptop 
btw: i've renamed the thread. do you guys think it's appropriate ?

Well i think sager will do just fine .

EDIT: your previous lappie a sony AR series kirakun?

That's one hell of a best... and what's more? Changing your CPU would not spoil your warranty...

@corad

I don't know... 

i took d "pride" part away. sounded really gay re-reading it

seems like we've quite a few sarawakians here.   i took a peek at kirakun's address 

yes! this sager are still from xoticpc, they are still the best place to get a clevo/sager notebook at a very considerable price!!

I myself was very surprised that a bidder would actually buy it on that price i thought of changing the price to only 2.2k if it doesnt sell well but behold suddenly someone wants it more, i also give some nice free gifts which is;
1) cooler pad zalman NC-1000
2) Pendrive 8GB
3) headphones
4) Card reader
5) Kaspersky AV 2009 original
6) mouse - rm 8 only 

i think that the reason someone bought it...

nice beast the NP9262 it got a freaking SLI 9800m GTX dude!! that is a monster, of course it would be a godzilla if you got the Quad-core CPU  !!!! i thought of getting one after i sold my NP5796 but since the weight are kinda a killer for me... so decided to go back to the NP5797... 

p/s: im from sabah~~~~~, east malaysia roxx sager world!!!!! or is it west??~~`

Hm... Do Singapore charge taxes for notebook? Try check with your local custom.

@Bankster

Yes... I'm referring to college of course, hard to imagine anything below than that need to carry notebook to school (With all the textbooks... You have to have plenty of muscle to kill lol )

Never own a 17" before and since its not much more heavier; ~0.5kg, might consider it on my next investment. Thanks for the reply.

it's all in the 2nd post 

haha .. have to scroll all the way to the end tho.  not much promoting on my part  , i'm sure most of the members here would have bought the same lappie with or without this thread

oh..ok how good is the speakers?

Hi corad! I really want to purchase a Sager laptop. The laptop i had in mind was a Sager NP8660. The price quoted after i customized the laptop was $2229.06. If i use your affiliate program to purchase this laptop how much cheaper can i bring the price down. I'll post my spec below so you might get a better idea on the system i built. Thanks a lot. Sager does rule

Thank you and take care. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi guys... I just found out this great thread.. and do let me revive and bump up this thread!

I just ordered a Sager NP5793 from Singapore and now anxiously waiting for my lappie to be delivered..

The specs are as below:-

Display:17" WUXGA LCD with Matte Finish Surface (1920x1200)

Processor:45nm Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T9300 / 6MB L2 Cache 2.50GHz 800MHz FSB

Video & Graphics Card:Nvidia GeForce 9800M GTS Graphics with 1GB DDR3 Video Memory

Operating System:Genuine MS Windows® VISTA Home Premium 32/64-Bit Edition

Memory:4GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz - 2 X 2048MB

Primary Hard Disk Drive:320GB 7200rpm SATA 300 Hard Drive

Optical Drive:2X Blu-ray Reader/8X DVD R/2.4X DL Super-Multi Drive

Wireless Network Card:Intel Wi-Fi Link 5300AGN - 802.11A/B/G/N Wireless LAN Module (add 68)

Intel Robson Technology:Intel 2GB TurboMemory Module

Primary Battery:Smart Li-ION Battery Pack (8 Cells)

Integrated Security Device:Fingerprint Reader

PLUS: Free gift of a Free Edifier M1335 Multimedia System worth SGD59

And the price I pay is SGD3,000 = RM7,000 (overpriced or value buy?) No additional charges and inclusive of GST and free delivery.

Plus: Since I order from Singapore, the warranty is being covered both in Singapore and Sager USA. So, if anything spoilt, I can just sent it back to Singapore office by hand and no need to sent back to USA which can save me substantial shipping cost.

Bad thing is still have to wait for another 5-7 working days for my lappy to get into my hands... and I cant obtain another 3% discount bcos I din pay in cheque or cash.

Would like to enquire more about the shipping method. Is shipping free from xoticpc to USA?

If it is, is it possible to use vPOST to do my shipping then? Theoretically I could save the USD250+ shipping charges and only pay about at most SGD50 for the shipping charges to my Malaysian address.

Is there any shop in kl selling sager lappie???

sadly nooo i got the NP5797 but with the 9800m GTX, wait for next month payment to upgrade mine... my cousin are helping me out to upgrade my gpu...

damm dude, sager/clevo are really updating their system with latest technology, very fast indeed.... im proud to be a sager/clevo owner!!

a rival of the NP9262?? the clevo M980NU!!

Dammit, I not his dupe lah, dun misunderstand lah, I know this guy just joined March 09. Give ppl chance lah.
If you want to pay by international credit cards, you can order from SG Cube and pay by installments. You can oso pay by cheque or cash and in return you will be awarded a 3% discount on total cost.

The good thing is whenever your laptop is faulty, you can always bring back to them and they will take care of your warantly and the shipping costs unlike for those who order directly from XoticPC as they will have to bear their own shipping cost (izit USD223 one way?). You may request them to fix it by SG Cube technical team (if you want ur laptop to be fix it fast) or request them to sent it back to Sager USA (if you don't mind to wait for 3 weeks).

I oso sent an email to Sager USA to verify their authentication as a authorised Sager reseller in Spore.

Attached is the screenie for the email conversation.


Since I am working in Spore so I just ordered from them and I am going to receive it at my doorstep on Tuesday morning.

I see... Good for you that you can order Sager's laptop ... Does it takes extra fees or what to deliever to Malaysia?

The price for the Sager's laptop in SG cube is so much more expensive than XoticPC. Is it that the shipping fee from US to SG is included? So that makes the price so expensive?

Sound good to me that it got warranties and services. Does the warranty works in Malaysia?

Sorry for asking so many questions..

From a 5k laptop to 6.3k ????

haha... The model that I am interested is NP8662...  It is $1350.24... convert to MYR is around RM4920.96..
Please don't include the shipping fee or what.... It is still okay for me if it is around 5500 MYR.
I don't think it is possible to pay via installment right>??

My budget right now might be around Rm6500 including shipping. Hope this time my boss will approve it.

Not sure where to buy from yet but thinking of buying from xoticpc.com. Or maybe buy a backbone from Rjtech with cpu & graphic card. Survey the price of hardisk & ram here in Malaysia are more cheaper.

Thinking of buying NP8662 but might have to let go if not affordable.

Ofcourse need a new one with receipt so can claim later.

  Unless you have a better ideas? 

I wouldn't say that he is 'very generous' b'cause he already turn me down on a better specs deal of a laptop. And that it isn't confirm that i get the 6.5k yet.

I mean that u have used 2 laptops already and getting a new one which altogether combine would cost almost Rm8k - Rm10k right? Well i'm trying to save his as* and money (if he realise it) by building a laptop that could last longer than others. Not to mention far better than any laptop u can get in Malaysia.

All he kept saying is "..bla bla bla..cut less, more profits...". And he said he just bought a Sony laptop only for Rm3xxx ++ for himself. (i know when he said this, he must be wondering why mine cost a lot more than his).

i work as a web designer and a little bit less of a programmer at his company. And he's trying to let me work on a stupid laptop.

Ya, very satisfied with it.

The downside is the fonts are really really too small. Really need time to get use to it. I am now torrenting L4D oso btw...
