Clevo also has a 17.3'' W87CU, featured in anandtech's mobile i7 review: http/anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=3647&p=4

At the same time though, they also removed the NP5797 from their 17'' class: http/www.sagernotebook.com/category_browse.php?cid=&lcdsize=17

 

[Maziar]

Yup and maybe because they made an i7 model
I found an info about the Clevo W870CU
http/forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=387411
Its strange though,its not available in Sager's site

Finally out:
http/www.xoticpc.com/sager-np8760-built-clevo-w870cu-custom-gaming-laptop-order-p-2660.html

Same specs as NP8690 but 17.3"

 

[lostandwandering]

^Yup. It looks really nice and has an excellent price to match. However, they are only giving you the option of a puny 6-cell battery and for a 17'' powerhouse, that's just plain wrong.

 

[Maziar]

yup the battery should have been better
