-Helo everyone...i am new here and i hope i can get lot of knowledge here
-I hope all of you can calm down and we can have a nice forum
-I have been researching about this brand (Sager) and found that XOTICPC is one of the best dealer
-Here is some link which I think it might be useful:
- http://www.xoticpc.com/ - most of you already know about this right?
- http://www.killernotebooks.com/ - which I found this website is really made for laptop enthusiast (gamer)

-Corad,I do have some questions to ask you since I am planning to buy OCZ whitebook from xoticpc in december@hopefully in january
-I plan to configure it with crossfire 3870 which score about 15k in 3dmark06 benchmark really make me impressed until now
-I do know about the xoticpc (order,payment,shipping) but what about the discounts you mentioned earlier in the first page (7%,25% and 3%)?
-I really curious about gaming ability of a laptop,so to make things easy,I can know the level of a laptop by simply benchmarking it with crysis(especially about its graphics configuration)...In my own experience a laptop with 8600m gt (acer 5920) already considered as a gaming laptop since it can play crysis even at low quality settings
-So I hope no more backstab between us after this..If you want to argue something then make it as evident-based argument...not emotion-based argument
-forgive me if my english is not as better as some of you but honestly i really interested if we can share knowledge here

TQ

-For WUXGA configuration you can get a really nice black brushed aluminium (may be you have to find good picture of it = googling)
-Corad,why you didnt take the Sager NP5793?Is 17" too big for you?@bcz you want the latest technology (ddr3,centrino2)?
-I would recommend you to take intel turbo memory(ITM) 4gb and a 7200rpm hdd for better gaming ability..
-the new itm2 really make huge impact on the laptop overall performance not as the previous itm

-Alienware is really one of the best gaming laptop in the world
-and it is one of the best looking laptop (certainly)
-but some thread (even in lowyat forum) stated that the m15x have serious problem with the hinges and the driver issues (downclock)
-there is no bad feedback from the m17x and m9750 user (correct me if i am wrong)
-but in my opinion,performance comes first and i consider the good looking as a bonus
-that's why there is some people want to have sager@ocz as their gaming laptop since it comes with excellent price-over-performence advantage
-but for the best performance,i will choose sager NP9262 configured with core 2 quad Q9650 and 9800m GTX SLI @ 9800m GT SLI
-think NP9262 as ugly and behemoth laptop?well,another options are Sager NP 5796 and OCZ whitebook (seriously have sleek body as alienware's area m15x and m17x as well as backlit keyboard which i really like it)
-try have a look at sager np5796 and OCZ Whitebook

-a hdd with 7200rpm is really fast compared to a hdd with 5400rpm
-this bcz the hdd is the slowest part of a computer especially in a laptop
-that's why some people get raid setting for their hdd
-and now intel launching their own ssd that its performance pass even the fastest desktop hdd (one of them is velociraptor) and the result is the intel ssd really make a huge impact on gaming performance by increasing the fps of each game that is tested (one of it is crysis of course)
-I do read about itm2..i forgot about the link (and the link about the 5400rpm,7200rpm and ssd performance comparison) but what i can tell is itm2 4gb is different from itm2 2gb and the older itm..it mentioned about the pinning ability that the 4gb have but other dont have it...that's why i recommend to have it in your laptop..
-what I can point out are 7200rpm is really worth to upgrade and the same goes also to itm2 4gb

-If you want to buy great laptop with great specifications then go to XOTICPC since they really sell GAMING LAPTOP with unbelievable price (cheaper not expensive)

the 7% discount is applicable for uni students (just have to show your admission offer) , the other 25% give or take is for being an affiliate with xoticpc, I seldom post about them in lowyat tho. and the 3% is when you pay by bank transfer or money order

-so if i want to buy it from you,how much discount will I get?

I hv asked about this long time ago(may be 2,3 months ago) and they mention dat there is no student discount..

Anyone have info about intel turbo memory 4GB?
Does it really give improved significant performance?
BTW,the NP9850 really looks great...hopefully I can buy it oneday...

Bankster,I pm you asking something..
