1st off. I've been doing some research and am primarily looking at the Sager 9285 and the Sager 8850
1 What is your budget?
2k ish (really whatever works)
2 What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
17 inch
3 What screen resolution do you want?
full HD (at least 1080p)
4 Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
I want portable but know it's not going to happen.. so this doesn't affect me much.
5 How much battery life do you need?
At least an hour
6 Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
Yes, MW2/SCII High
7 What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo / Video editing,watching movies, Etc.)
Photo editing and watching movies (might get a monitor for home use though)
8 How much storage (H.D.D Capacity) do you need?
500gb
10 How long do you want to keep your laptop?
I'd love to have this for 4 years.. that's why I want to spend a lot
11 What kind of Optical drive do you need? DVD ROM/Writer,Bluray ROM/Writer,Etc ?
DVD is fine
12 Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
Sager looks very interesting, I'd prefer not to go with Dell/Alienware and no Mac for sure
13 What country do you live in?
U.S.A
14 Please tell us any additional information if needed.
Well I'm goin off to college and I would like to replace my desktop. I guess I would take this to class but I'm not worried about weight. The main thing I want is "future proof"
As I said up top, right now I am looking at the Sager 9285 or the 8850.
The only spec difference would be that the 9285 would have the GTX 285m, 6gb of RAM and the i7 Quad 930.
The 8850 would have the brand new GTX 480m, 4gb of RAM, and the i7 Dual 730.
Any new suggestions are welcome
Thanks a lot!
I've been out of the computer game for about 4 years (built a ~1k desktop a long time ago) and now I'm ready for something new!
