    Gaming laptops: performance vs reliability

    I can't say much about the longevity of the NP7352 I just got, but I've yet to see the GPU temp go over 65C... Maybe this isn't a true Gaming laptop. However, it's got the GTX 765M with a i7-4700MQ which is 47watt TDP...

    Good semi-gaming laptop under 1200-1300

    Look at the Sager laptops, they have several models that are under $1300... I personally choose the NP7352, a 15.6" laptop, with a few options above their base version ($1079) and the way mine was configured, it came out to just under $1300.

    Gaming Laptop Power Consumption

    I'm considering a Sager NP7352,(15.6") with the same CPU and GPU, etc... There apparently is a button on these, that can turn off the GPU entirely?? But I'm wondering, if a person were to not uses the GPU for anything in particular, and maybe turn the CPU down to say 75%... anyone have...

    Where to be dedicated graphics laptops in USA?

    Based on my recent search for a laptop with a dedicated graphics card... it seems, that the brick and mortar retailers in the US, are not offering very good options when it comes to moderately priced laptops with dedicated graphics cards... I think the reason is that the Intel 4000 HD graphics...

    Ok, according to MSI's sales/marketing... the GE60 OND-666US, should be identical to the GE60 OND-257US, with the only difference being that the former comes with Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit), where the later comes with Window 8 (64bit). That is, the graphics card should be a GTX 660M in...
