Heya! its been awhile!! Busy upgrading mine np5796, actually i sold it and bought the all new updated NP5797 !!!!!!

dude corad, after i saw your second Np8860 in the image with a much better and updated spec its inspire me to buy a whole new notebook man

... At first i only thought of buying the Np5797, but after pondering for 2 months and seeing that i want a notebook that will last for 3-5 years and still powerful enough to play the latest game on a high setting, SO i made a decision (which become my new years azam XD) to actually buy the NP5797 with a superb spec!!!

My old spec for NP5796 are:

Resolution: 17" WUXGA "Glare Type" Super Clear Ultra Bright Glossy Screen (1920x1200)

Graphic Card: 1,024MB PCI-Express nVidia GeForce 9800M GTX DDR3

RAM: 4GB DDR3 1066mhz.

HARD DISK: 500GB 5,400RPM

Processor: Intel® P9500 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Duo 2.53GHz w/6MB L2 On-die cache - 1066MHz FSB 25 watt

Optical DRIVE: Combo Dual Layer SuperMulti 8X DVDRW Drive.


After selling it to a very liable buyer for USD$3,000 (its easy to sell at Ebay lolz ), i set my spec as high as possible and adding a few hundreds here and there, the spec of my dream become a reality!!! and this time with a blu-ray optical drive!!!

Here is my new spec for the NP5797 and cost around $3400:

Resolution: 17" WUXGA "Glare Type" Super Clear Ultra Bright Glossy Screen (1920x1200)

Graphic Card: 1,024MB PCI-Express nVidia GeForce 9800M GTX DDR3

RAM: 4GB DDR3 1066mhz.

HARD DISK: 500GB 5,400RPM

Processor: Intel® QX9300 45nm "Montevina" Core™2 Quad 2.53GHz w/12MB L2 On-die cache 1066MHz FSB

Optical DRIVE: 2X Blue-Ray Read/8X DVDRW Super Multi Combo Drive.

Sound Card: Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi 7.1 Xtreme Audio Notebook Express Card

Personally, In my opinion. This is by far the very best 17" notebook that I could get which is a really big bang for buck. I'm not used to 15.4" screen because to me, its really small and arent that good for watching movies nor playing games. So i went for 17" as a desktop replacement for my computer at home!!!

The NP5797 is great if you really want to replace your desktop and prefer gaming-on-the-go. Its much easier to carry around then carrying a CPU, Monitor and also a keyboard. I know how it feels to carry around so much weight...

Actually i was targeting the Big Momma of gaming laptop which is the NP9262 equipped with Desktop Quad Cpu and Sli 9800m GTX but since it looks sooooo damn freaking heavy and bulky. I stick with the Np5797 because it aint that heavy comparing to other 17" notebook.

The build quality of clevo are by far the best i have seen and you could easily prove by the numbers of many satisfying customer who really love the looks of the notebook. Many people prefer the simple look because you can actually customize the look to your own needs, no need to stick with one style of looks!! Xoticpc offered a very nice variety of custom paint job for their customer, and it looks very cool as well as promising. Although i never tried it, but at notebookreview, some of the reviewer purchase the custom paint job and were satisfy entirely!!

@corad: oh about the BIOS flash, i really dont know, it would be best to ask around notebookreview forum... they are the best in helping those in needs


p/s: dude lets meet up and have a hell good lan party!! L4D or TF2!!

Good job with the QX9300! Sure will come in handy if future games utilize more than 2 cores, hopefully soon.

Hi all

I am currently staying in Australia , jist wondering is there any reliable sager local seller?

I dont want to go through all the trouble in case something goes wrong with the machine.

Been wanting to get one for myself

i wonder how u able to sell for such a high price... even higher than the price u bought it(i guess)... can share share how u sell it?? might consider to change to sager if i able to sell off my monster laptop

Long time no see man !

haha , extreme beast you've got there (nice price also ) buyer too excited to bid on ebay ? xP good tip for us sager owners , easier to sell this laptop out later on since people will still be attracted to the specs

Yea, we should definitely do a sager outing! imagine sitting around a mamak playing Crysis multiplayer
btw: this sager still from xoticpc ?

aust suppliers don't have the full range of sager laptops. but if you're lucky, they might just have the one you want on

Check here.

Well , any of them have shop in canberra where i can get to see them physically?

haiz...too bad they dont have sager in malaysia...

dude...how much did you pay for import tax? do you know anywhere i can check it? coz im thinking about the Sager NP 2096...id be greatful if you could tell me

No import tax for notebooks dude.

you serious!!!??? so all i need is just to pay for the delivery fee? if thats the case...EXCELLENT!!!

yup....

Yes this is it from the looks of it.

Thanks,man.

They even have a reseller near my place in NSW.Just 10-15 minutes bus ride from my home.

The only problem is the base specs is bad.

Why did the Aus one give out crap specs one? 1GB RAM and a 1.73 C2D.It's a joke,IMO.The CPU will be a bottleneck for the ultra fast GC.

How much bette is 9800GTS,compare to 9800GT?

Funny enough, the mobile 9800 series GTS perform 5~10% sower than an mobile 9800 series GT.

You can get more detailed comparison here under "The Performance".

i loled at the processor....

Buy from Xotic PC or Eurocom and forget about the warranty. There's a good chance of your local retailer willing to help you to fix your machine if there's a problem at a price. Contact them and see what they say.

"Hello, I'm so not buying from you guys but could you fix my machine if it screwed up?"
