Corad. Is XOTICPC trusted? Can you tell me how you pay for ur laptop? And is it expensive that you pay for the duties? And what is it all about for the Brokerage fee? Can I use easy payment???? Sorry for asking so many questions!!!!!!


And for kirakun, please don't call me to do any 'homework' again. I tried my very best to do my 'homework' already.

well 6 out of 7 forumers here got their sager from xoticpc (check out the front page)

We all had to pay via a bank transfer. There's no tax or brokerage fee for bringing in laptops to Malaysia.

What's easy payment ?

and i think kirakun was referring to WyjSwmW, unless you're his dupe

no man... he told me to do some 'homeworks' before in some other topics. LOL...

Well finally u are here aren't u after my remark in yout topic?.

Most if not all info about sager u can find here or http://forum.notebookreview.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1017 and feel free to ask around.

Bro corad is the 'pioneer' for sager thread here but do read through before shooting your qs.

ahhhhh!!!!!!! I want the Sager laptop so badly.... I cannot pay them with a check or what because I do not have that amount of money. I can only pay them monthly. XoticPc doesn't accept international credit cards!!

Do I still got any other way to buy Sager Laptop???

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 ????

Seems like my 'remark' works like a charm .

Anyway welcome to the club. Which model u ordered? . Mind to some some details here and don't forget to post some pics and benchmarks when u receive yours.

Added on March 21, 2009, 9:50 amWhich model u are particularly interested in?

Atm the currency exchange rate is kinna high from RM to US dollars so very few(only mid-low end) models will fit in your budget if u plan to buy from xoticpc.

I actually ordered the NP5793 (since tis model is in promotion and the specs are not bad too...).

The price quoted on their website is actually included everything, (GST, shipping fees, custom duties... i mean everything) from bringing ur laptop from Sager to ur doorstep. Since I order before 15 March 2009, I am entitled to get a free gift somemore, ie a edifier multimedia system (better than nothing la, i think).

I know is a bit expensive by few hundred bucks, but since I am in Spore and I want peace of mind, if anything happens, I can just run to their office doorstep the next morning and receive back my repaired laptop the next day or so.

Ya, and you mentioned about exchange rate... currently the RM to SGD is actually more favourable than RM to USD (correct me if I am wrong).

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>??

Well your budget will be pretty tight drawn if you are planning to go ahead with np8662 and at the very basic spec.

No u can't pay via installment through xoticpc.

damnnnnn i really want that GTX280M!! Based on notebookcheck gpu ranking, the GTX 280M is the fastest single GPU.... OMG... i really want it... but gotta be patient and wait for 2 months then i got some money to upgrade...

so damn fast sager updated their notebook... not fair dude

Talking about unfair, i'm still waiting and hoping that clevo will release support for D901/900C lolz.

Bro at least your lappie is confirmed able to fully support gtx 280m.

2 months wait is nothing compared to mine as yet to confirm whether able to support it or not.

Felt like endless wait lol.

CLevo, come on and release the bios support for np9262 lol.

yeah, the D901c, i heard about it in the notebookreview forum and was surprised the newest one which is here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=358804

that the notebook D900F will only have single gpu but will support the latest i7 processor... its interesting though...

patient is virtue my friend
perhaps you gotta make a petition for the bios support to gain clevo attention

Hi Guys..

I am interested to buy a sager maybe from xoticpc. Been thinking about Np5797 with the GTX280M or Np8660 with the GTX260M (have to see my budget 1st.. hahaha).. So I have a couple of questions before buying the sager.


1. Do they provide u with a receipt (printed or writing) as i need it to claim to my company later? Going to use a company laptop to fulfill my most inner desiress..!!! har har harrrrr... .... gaming of course.

2. I heard that sager is upgradable later. It is true? It is hard to assemble it and upgrade it later?

3. What are the specs that i should concentrate on as i have limited budget as to get the full Oo mighty specs. My budget is around Rm8000 including the shipping.

4. Should i get the Intel Turbo Memory as i will be using vista and maybe windows 7 later?

5. If i buy a ram here in Malaysia, it can fit in that sager right? Unless sager have a different out of space modul right? he hhe he...

6. Should I order now or later as it is a back order until end of march for Np5797 and ETA early april for Np8660.


Thanks guys...

May The Force Be With You...

1. Yeap, the receipt comes with your laptop
2. See 1st post, to me it was as easy as upgrading a desktop
3. get what you're happy with. no point getting a blueray drive if you don't have blue ray discs
5. just get the RAM from xoticpc, it'll be cheaper. Unless you can find 2 x 2GB DDR1333 laptop RAM for less than USD60


skipped 4 & 6 , only you can answer that

Thanks for 4 kind answers..

Anyway, what's intel turbo memory? I'm new with that thing..haven't heard about it until i came across recently.

Is the CPU and graphic card upgradable? I think that matters the most.

Bluray.. I thought of buying it course I heard it's like the thing of the future right... Mmm.. since u said it like that...having 2nd thought..

Also, i've never use any laptop bigger than a 15". Is 17" really that heavy? Should i use a bagpack? If needed, which is cheaper and better, that targus beg that come with the order or should i just buy a bagpack here in Malaysia..?

Blueray is good option as future movies will almost be played in blueray format.

The problem is I have heard some reviews that many are complainning in www.notebookreview.com that having a blueray in sager notebook is useless because their screens are too dim, (many commented that one of the dimmest screen I have ever seen) which you cant enjoy your blueray movies at the fullest.

So, my very last reason to purchase the Sager was gone.

supposedly the intel turbo is to make your windows booting much faster... well i only know that part lolz ~~~~

other than the loading part, is it any more useful?? I mean like waiting for windows to load isn't that long anyway..


How about you guys that have a sager with bluray. What do you all have to say?
