    Headphones for Gaming

    Very well informed answer, thank you! I debated looking into the dt770, I'm glad you brought it up! I think I will end up getting the K7xx for now, and save up for the dt770 if I decide the leakage is too great for public use. Is the fiio e10k a good dac/amp for the k7xx? Are there any...

    Headphones for Gaming

    I plan on purchasing a new pair of headphones here soon, primarily being used for gaming/movies. Unfortunately, most of the headsets I have been looking at have an open back system. How much leakage is there in such a setup? I have been primarily looking at the AKG k7xx as I've heard great...

    New Laptop Battery Draining Fast

    You could try switching over to integrated graphics when you're not gaming. Might save some battery.

    Looking for a gaming laptop

    @Velo Sure, I've used CyberPowerPC, and xoticPC, both went smoothly... so I didn't experience the hiccups that some people encounter. I have heard GentechPC is a really good laptop provider, as they fix their mistakes promptly. For example, some guy had a failed graphics card (which isn't...

    Looking for a gaming laptop

    Yeah, there is... but you would end up paying $200 extra. https://www.amazon.com/Prostar-P650HP3-i7-7700HQ-Bluetooth-Warranty/dp/B01MS67B0V/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1486652279&sr=8-7&keywords=clevo Another option: https://www.gentechpc.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=Build-Sager-NP8155 $1,150...

    Looking for a gaming laptop

    I wouldn't really go with Amazon, usually they're a little more expensive and less customization. Here are a few other options though: If you're looking for 17 inches: http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np8174-clevo-p670hp6.html?startcustomization=1 About $1260 if you get rid of the SSD. (DO NOT GET...

    Clevo P755dm3 Laptop

    I appreciate the insanely fast response :) I have a feeling it is copper, as there is an option to put Coollabs Liquid Ultra on it, which is also a liquid metal thermal. However, they have an option to put Liquid Ultra on the laptop for free, should I just go ahead and do that? Or would you...

    Clevo P755dm3 Laptop

    The Clevo P775dm3 is really appealing to me, as I deal intensively with cyber security tools and virtual machines in my current studies. Right now I am using a Macbook pro, and it is lagging behind like crazy... and I have to use the schools provided VMs which is a huge pain. Whoever says you...

    The New Razer Blade (2016) or MacBook Pro 13"

    Would agree with the whole macbook thing, I definitely regret it! I personally purchased a Macbook because it was the "craze"... big mistake. I would truly consider looking into the MSI, if you want to save $500. Might even find it cheaper elsewhere. I haven't looked at reviews and such, but...

    The New Razer Blade (2016) or MacBook Pro 13"

    There's no reason to get a mac if you're going to instantly put Linux on it tbh. With Macs, I'm always under the impression you're paying for the OS. I'd get the Razer, if money isn't an issue. Have you ever considered a cheaper alternative, however...

    Solved! Laptop and Upgradeability

    I do know in previous Clevo product lines you have been able to swap out the GPU inside of their systems. Even when the GPU was a mobile chip. The CPU, not so much. Which is why I was wondering if the GPU was still swappable in this product line, as it switched over to desktop GPUs, I figured...

    Solved! Laptop and Upgradeability

    Hey, so I'm planning on getting a laptop... as I need a laptop that can handle the amount of traveling back and forth I have to do. I think I have decided on the following laptop: clevo p775dm3-g Or: http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np9172-clevo-p775dm3-g.html Now, this laptop comes with a...
