My Toshiba Qosmio X875 3D high performance laptop was destroyed in December by TSA while I was on a trip. I have DirecTV maintenance program that guarantees repair with new parts or replace with a new equal or better system. They found everything - motherboard, graphics card, back, keyboard, power source, CPU, a few other parts (as I said - TOTALLED!!) they couldn’t find the CPU FAN - no longer manufactured.
Now they’re giving me the option to replace it with one of 2 Inspiron laptops. I paid $3000 for my Toshiba when I upgraded my Inspiron. Now they want to cram a $900 NON 3D system down my throat - expecting me to take a serious downgrade - probably thinking I’m a “stupid woman who knows nothing.” Albeit, I am 63 years old, I’m a computer engineer and technician. Needless to say, I was pretty furious with their options.
At the time I purchased my Qosmio, I had spent 9 months researching and saving money for the laptop. I’m on a fixed income due to an injury which left me 100% disabled. I don’t have 9 months. I have NOW to find and fight over an acceptable repl. I was comparing at the time every component from every manufacturer. I work on people’s systems, so chose not to get Acer or a few others because of problems and lack of support.
I don’t know much about the new VR technology. I know that with some, you use glasses and some, you don’t to get the 3d effect. I want the 3D. I ABSOLUTELY prefer the Intel Core i9-7980XE 18 core monster processor, Intel Core i7-8700K the Intel Core (8) processor), Intel Core i7-8700K hexa-core (6 Core), processor, least the i7 Quad core processor or the Xeon pr 2TB of 7200 or 10,000 RPM drives so as to avoid latency issues while recording and editing music and for video editing and rendering. I need high speed wi-fi for transferring video and audio to others to over-record and ship back. I need high speed for streaming video and 3D movies. I need BR-3D-CD Optical drive although I have a Buffalo external drive. I need Blu-Ray ,3D,HDgdaphics card - probably the NVidia MX1070 or 1080 or AMD equivalent.
If I wanted an Inspiron, I would’ve Obtained an Inspiron to begin with rather than my Qosmio. Needless to say, I’m heartbroken! All over the CPU fan! So now the fight’ll be on over an acceptable laptop, which their offer is NOT!
Now I need help. I’m looking at the following: (and do they need the VR glasses?)
Alienware R4 17” with upgrades
Cyber power - but does it need glasses
MSI
Eluktronics
Samsung
HP
Titan
Possibly a custom built system like the Xidax
I need serious help - ASAP.
Thanks - Angie
