1269650 2012-04-13 01:47:00 The model i was thinking of getting was with hd upgrade the cost is $8500. But i might wait for ivy bridge then get one stratex5 (16685)
1269651 2012-04-13 02:06:00 That sounds good to me. ChazTheGeek (16619)
1269652 2012-04-13 03:13:00 lol just cos you can customize the laptop at their page doesnt mean you can buy parts later on and put them in silly. And remeber as your money gets transfured from your account your are gettign riped off by about $4000 bucks. my 3.7grand desktop would wipe the floor with that laptop your paying $8500 for.

1269653 2012-04-13 03:16:00 You're going to spend 8.5k on a laptop 0.o icow (15313)
1269654 2012-04-13 03:21:00 it would probably be cheaper to fly to america and buy the laptop from there then fly back. Slankydudl (16687)

1269656 2012-04-13 03:30:00 Nice.
but does that fit in a laptop?

1269657 2012-04-13 04:12:00 Probably not but anything like quarter as good as that in a laptop will make the laptop so big i wouldn't call it a laptop any more...

The point I was trying to make is the kind of PC you're missing out on.

1269658 2012-04-13 04:16:00 My idea of a good gaming laptop is

i7 cpu
8GBG ram
6990m 2GB video chipset
2TB 7200rpm HD
Whatever size screen suits

price....approx $1600-$2200 NZD
