Hi guys,

I just stumbled upon Sager and i'm really looking forward to getting one from xoticpc.com

Was wondering how much would the shipping cost to West Malaysia?

Thanks

wahhh...is that with UPS?

hmmm...USPS...in their FAQ they recommend using UPS with their Express Shipping though. but i guess that would be really expensive.
To get their quote on shipping...just sign up as member and check out the item to see?

@Bibima
it's the Sager N8662
http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np8662-built-...0tu-p-2564.html

I would go for the glossy display. It makes the display more sharp and clear. That's for me. but some people go for the matte display because of the glare. I really don't mind it...depends on how u angle the display.

I was doing more browsing and came across Sager NP5797....bigger screen and better Gpu... the 280M. I might get that instead...problem is it's heavy! and i travel a lot.

On their spec page....it shows the GT9800 GTX but on their customize and buy page...it's the 280M. I think they are upgrading the GPU for it. the price for my spec would be about USD1900 excluding shipping of USD200.

this would be helpful for MGPU comparison....http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-G.....-List.844.0.html

From it...the 9800GTX and the 280M is a huge leap.

I'm going to the UK for holidays soon. Are there any resellers of either Clevo or Sager there?

For those who purchase their sager....

Can I have measurements (Height x Length x Width) of the box that was delivered to your home? And the weight too.

Want to ask a friend of mine to get it back for me from the states.

thanks

Hey,

How'sa your sagers treating you guys? I am looking to get a new lappie....my 8600GT is already dated. Torn between the Sager NP8690 with 3yrs warranty from mucro and sager. OR the Alienware M15x also with 3yrs warranty. Both prices came to about the same but only one...ONE major difference....the GPU....280 on sager and 260 on AW.

Cripes...from the benchmarks i can see that the 260 falls behind about 10 places from the 280.

Any inputs?

I am an avid gamer...and i play almost every game there is. That's why I will choose a GPU that's on the high side. Which is the 280, but since AW doesn't have that configuration think i'll go along with sager. Din realise that AW is so heavy...I travel a lot that will be a back breaker. All I care is the power! power for gaming!

Yeah....looks cant deny that AW is awesome. fancy mancy. And good easy warranty too.

And I have not tried a 17" yet...might try it too. But add weight and the bulk.

no updates on mucro.asia site for new models?
