    #129797 Most powerful laptop out there right now.

    Posted by Quinn on 14 June 2011 - 04:44 PM in Off-Topic

    wouldnt it overheat easily? Ive had some laptops thatll burn you just from surfing the internet....


    I wouldn't think so, Sager isn't exactly new, if they think they can put that hardware in a laptop, they've probably done lots and lots of testing to ensure they don't pull a Microsoft.



    #129788 Most powerful laptop out there right now.

    Posted by Quinn on 14 June 2011 - 04:20 PM in Off-Topic

    I was bored, so I searched around to find the most powerful laptop out there right now. Of course, it has to be custom built.
    Enter the Sager NP7282-S1:
    Even stock, this thing is a beast, however, it can be customized to compete with many high end desktop systems.
    Anyways, here are the specs (after customization):
    Screen: 17.3' 1080p LED
    CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-990X Processor Extreme Edition ( 12MB L3 Cache, 3.46GHz, 6.4GT/sec QPI, 6 Cores )
    Graphics: Dual Nvidia GeForce GTX 485M GPUs (2x2GB memory)
    Memory: 12GB Triple Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz
    Storage: 3 600GB Intel 320 Series SATA2 Solid State Disk Drive
    Optical: 6X BD-R Blu-ray Burner/8X DVD±R/2.4X +DL Super-Multi Drive
    (also has an upgraded wireless card, TV tuner etc)

    --

    Total cost...



















    ...wait for it....





























    $8,912.00 USD
    Ahh, if only I was rich.
    Although, it would probably have about 10 minutes of battery life.



    #129790 Most powerful laptop out there right now.

    Posted by Quinn on 14 June 2011 - 04:25 PM in Off-Topic

    and weigh 80 pounds....


    so worth it though... :drool:

    Also, there is another version of this same laptop, but customized by Xotic PC (xoticpc.com) that goes for $9593.00 fully decked out (it has a few more goodies than stock, like a better screen)



    #129800 Most powerful laptop out there right now.

    Posted by Quinn on 14 June 2011 - 05:01 PM in Off-Topic

    dang that would be nice to have then lol :)


    It would, but I would still have to keep a more modest laptop around, I need the battery life :p



    #129802 Most powerful laptop out there right now.

    Posted by Quinn on 14 June 2011 - 05:28 PM in Off-Topic

    lol if you're able to get this kind of laptop, you'd have plenty of money to keep your old one :p


    true true, although I would probably try and find one with amazing battery life...



    #131304 Morrowind 2011 Graphical Overhaul

    Posted by Quinn on 05 September 2011 - 07:56 PM in PC Gaming

    I would love Morrowind to be redone in the new engine. That game was great, if you weren't careful it would kick ya right in the teeth



    #130179 More Red Dead Redemption DLC In The Works

    Posted by Quinn on 03 July 2011 - 09:38 AM in Games

    Not like its even a good game, LA Noir would be more appreciated as a port.


    I want both...



    #130175 More Red Dead Redemption DLC In The Works

    Posted by Quinn on 02 July 2011 - 10:27 PM in Games

    Yeah, now they just need to make the game for PC :blackie:



    #130402 ModernWarfare3.com Leads To Battlefield 3 Website

    Can't say that I like either company myself (Activision and EA)



    #129881 Minecraft is coming to Xbox 360!

    Posted by Quinn on 17 June 2011 - 03:27 PM in 360 News

    At first I read the title, I thought it said "Microsoft is coming to Xbox 360!"

    lol.


    lol, nice one

    haha there's a bootleg, ripped off, version of mine-craft already in the marketplace


    Yeah, but this is legit minecraft so... :p



    #129877 Minecraft is coming to Xbox 360!

    Posted by Quinn on 17 June 2011 - 02:58 PM in 360 News

    Thats right! The news has been floating around for a while, but I figured I would re-post it here. Essentially, the company that ported TES IV to PS3 is porting Minecraft to 360 (presumably as an XBLA title). This is expected to happen around when the 1.7 (adventure) update is released. If you don't know what minecraft is, its probably the most addicting game since halo.
    I wonder how the server thing is gonna work?
    And if mods will be allowed...?
    Oh well, I think PC will still be the best platform to play it on, but we'll see

    Can't embed dynamic images :o

    Security risks.


    fair enough



    #130307 Macbuntu

    Posted by Quinn on 09 July 2011 - 01:41 PM in Programs

    Because we all like Mac look alikes, I figured I would post about Macbuntu. Basically, Macbuntu makes Ubuntu look like Snow Leopard. It can be used on any distro "based on Debian/GTK", however I would recommend sticking with Ubuntu.
    D: Stupid ipb won't let me embed the images!

    I'll be trying it out soon, I'll post some more about it later.

    Also, if you don't know what Ubuntu is, this topic is not for you.



    #128829 Looking for Cheap Custom Builds

    Posted by Quinn on 13 April 2011 - 09:56 PM in Computers

    The second motherboard you have listed, the MSI, is the same one another user (connorss) has. We have had some issues with it, mainly the "OC Genie" (automatic overclocking, not good, it makes the system unstable)
    I think that was the only real issue, and luckily it can be disabled. If he sees this then he can expand on what I've said.



    #128826 Looking for Cheap Custom Builds

    Posted by Quinn on 13 April 2011 - 09:23 PM in Computers

    EDIT: Should I trust a PSU that comes with a case?


    No, because they are the cheap no-name ones.



    #128842 Looking for Cheap Custom Builds

    Posted by Quinn on 14 April 2011 - 03:36 PM in Computers

    Well I have absolutely no idea how to overclock but it shouldn't be that hard (???)

    And considering I have the option for getting a $90 motherboard and $110 processor for $30 less, then I'll just choose that.

    This may be the final decision right here!


    Overclocking is not hard, what is hard is getting a stable overclock.

    #130226 Let us play game. It will be fun.

    Posted by Quinn on 06 July 2011 - 11:39 AM in Off-Topic

    Minecraft: You are a very blocky man in a very blocky world with 0 friends other than pigs and cows, and monsters are sent after you to enforce curfew, one of which will blow you and/or your house up if it can. You also can punch wood to make it separate from everything else. And most things magically float.
