OK thank you very much, I guess I'll pay the extra for the 480GB SSD and leave the second hard drive bay empty. Oh and regarding the cooling paste or whatever it is, I only picked it because It costs next to nothing (and probably does next to nothing). I thought maybe it would help keep the...

There's an option to opt out of a hard drive altogether, would I be better off just buying the laptop with no storage space and then buying one of the 256GB Samsung SSD's you mentioned and installing it myself?

I appreciate your reply. Yes, the firewire port an sound card are free and can't be removed. I can't find a laptop with an i5 cpu that has a gtx 780m gpu. I've not looked that hard but I guess since an i7 isn't necessary I might as well go with the cheapest i7 processor they offer? I don't...

Hi everyone, I basically want a laptop for gaming, I want to play games like Skyrim on ultra settings. I've decided on a Clevo P170SM but I'm not sure about how to customise it. I've looked around and this seems to be the best website that I can find for buying the laptop PCSpecialist The specs...

Sorry, I forgot to mention that the HDD won't be a problem, I've got a 256gb SSD that I'm going to replace the HDD with. RAM isn't a problem either as I've got a spare 4GB RAM that I could use if any suggested laptop has below 8GB RAM on it. Thank you very much for the link, I'll look into it...

Hi everyone, I want to buy a gaming laptop that can run games like Skyrim on high settings at good FPS. After a lot of research, these two laptops are my preferences: Lenovo IdeaPad y510p Toshiba Qosmio x70 They're both pretty similar in terms of specs and price, the Toshiba comes out on top...

Yeah I don't mind the weight and size, but I just realised that it's not available in the UK (or so I think). Is there anywhere I can buy this in the UK? If not, is there a similar laptop that I can buy in the UK for a similar price? I don't care about the brand at all really. Thanks

Hi everybody, I recently posted a thread highlighting that I was about to purchase a Lenovo Ideapad y410p, but upon further research I found this Toshiba Qosmio X70-ABT2G22 which is better in pretty much every single way for a similar price. Should I go ahead and buy the Toshiba or is there a...

An additional solid state drive isn't necessary, but it's the easiest way to gain a significant boost in performance in my opinion. I don't have much stuff on my computer so I just bought a 256gb SSD and I put my entire HDD content onto it, the difference is pretty substantial.

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to give me some laptop buying advice, I mainly need it for coursework and gaming. I want to be able to play games like Skyrim on high settings I don't have a very restricted budget but I was hoping to spend around £700/$1000 or so...
