    Sager or Asus for gaming laptop quality?

    get the sager.. it's the best bang for the buck and it is fully customizable compared to the Asus.. which is direct out of the box.

    N56vz won't turn on, please help!

    i'm not so familiar with Aus voltage.. is it 110v or 220v? if there isnt any light that is on.. then you might have to RMA your unit.. this is an Asus right? and it still has global warranty... so i think you can send it to any Asus shop.. or perhaps you can call tech support... as long as it...

    if i understand it right... you want a good display for your laptop that can rival mac? Mac uses Glass coated screens... the only way you can get almost the same is the HP Specter series...if you just want wide viewing angles.. get a Matte screen..

    P270WM vs. P370EM

    either is good... although the P270WM has more cooling vents.. but be reminded that the P270 is using a desktop processor, so it might require loads of power and emit quite a lot of heat... if you want highest settings get the p370 with the specs: 3840QM 8-16GB of RAM the most important part is...

    Building my own laptop

    building a laptop is possible if you have the right tools and you can design your own chassis.. I think you want to become Ben Heck... the closest thing i could suggest you is a mini-itx board and get all parts in low profile.. and construct yourself a simple chassis that will hold all your...

    Xotic PC MSI GT70-276US or Maingear Nomad 17?

    Valkyrie CZ-17 vs GT70

    get the cz-17... 680 > 670MX... as the 680m will handle most games at ultra, and its cheaper too.. the momentus xt is quite ok.. as it gives you sort of the same speed as ssd but diff of around 20% but you do get the capacity..

    Razer Blade?

    The blade is a sort of the replacement for the discontinued 17 macbook pro.. and it might technically fit the gap of an ultrabook 17" laptop.. but if you were to buy the blade, be sure to weigh in the cost although it may look good.. be sure to ask yourself can it play the games you want at high...

    Sager NP9170 vs MSI GT70?

    for the copper cooling from Xoticpc, I read from NBR forums that it's overpriced and also does help that much.. although there is a mod which is the aluminum foil mod that is cheap and acts similar to the feature that Xoticpc is giving...

    Yet Another Gaming Laptop Suggestion Request

    I'd still go back to getting a Sager if I were you.. 15.4" is a bit hard to find since it is using the 16:10 aspect ratio.. when the 1920:1080 is using the 16:9 ratio.. i could suggest this laptop but it's a 15.6" and still sager :)...
