  1. Great phone apparently. For me it's pretty much this or the OnePlus 3. We'll see what the new Nexus lineup looks like.
  2. I have a GTX970 by MSI and I want the new Polaris GPUs because they've got more VRAM lel. Thank you for the giveaway and good luck to everybody.
  3. Just so I have a more powerful alternative: what do you think about the Lenovo Y50-70?
  4. Thanks for your responses. I really wish I could afford the XPS13. If I finally manage to get a little more money maybe I can consider buying it. The thing is, I don't really mind giving up performance compared to the Asus (i5 vs i7) to get an overall better PC, but if I finally get the Dell I think will have to upgrade at least the RAM to 8Gb. As to the Alienware 13, I like it, but I've always had the feeling that you're charge more just for the brand. It's a bit thicker and price-wise is very close to the XPS. I'll consider it but right now it's not my best option I think. Thanks again.
  5. Here the XPS starts at 1099EUR, which is 200 more than the UX303, but it has an i5 CPU and only 4GB of RAM. I prefer something else but with better specs. Seems like a great laptop though.
  6. OK so I just saw the Lenovo Yoga 3 (not Pro). It's a bit more pricey than the Asus which, to be honest, was my final choice until I came across the Lenovo. It's still an ultrabook, maybe even a little thinner, but has a touchscreen and a 258GB SSD instead of a 1TB HDD. I like the looks, and I also dig Lenovo as a brand, and this particular model really caught my eye. Apart from that, it has the same CPU (i75500U) and same amount of RAM. Any opinion on this one? Which do you think it's better? I hope I can see them in person, that'd be great.
  7. Yeah, I had read that review already. That's the LN version though. I'm talking about the LA which is almost the same, only without discrete GPU. I like that ultrabook, but I have two configurations to choose from inside the price range: i75500U + 8Gb RAM or i54210U +6Gb RAM. The latter is 70 eur cheaper, and has a touchscreen, which could be nice. RAM is upgradable and I could spend those 70 euros on a mSATA 128Gb SSD to go along with the HDD the PC includes. Is there a significant difference between the i7 and the i5? I'm still looking for new suggestions just in case.
  8. Hi all. I decided I want a laptop that I can carry with me to college to take notes and do stuff on the go. I'm looking for a 13-15 inch laptop, focused on portability. The tasks I'm going to do with it are productivity stuff (edit docs, slideshows) and since I'm a computer science student, I'll be using it for coding very frequently. I don't really need fancy graphics or a laptop to be able to play, that's what I have my desktop PC for. I prefer a thinner and lighter computer than a heavier but more powerful one. Right now I'm not intersted in 2-in-1 PCs, I prefer a classic laptop with a keyboard to type on. I've already done some research and found some interesting models of which I'd like to know your opinion. I liked the Zenbook UX303(i54210U 6GbRAM/i75500U 8Gb RAM) and UX305 (this one with CoreM, I don't know if it'll be enough. It's crazy light and thing though). The UX303 cost 850EUR and 920EUR respectively, the UX305 being a bit cheaper, although I'm not sure about it because it's coming to Spain next month. Just so you know more or less what the prices are here (unfortunately more expensive) The budget is what I say in the title. Altough I could consider spending 1000EUR, it'll be best if the price tag was around 900EUR so I don't have to break the bank. I'm looking for opinion on those 2 PCs (specially the CoreM performance) and some other suggestions. Thanks in advance. EDIT: I can wait until September to buy the laptop, it's not necessary right NOW.

  10. Also, the thing that worries me the most, apart from having 2Gb of RAM (it's not that I need much considering my TV's resolution, though), is that I have a 650W power supply...
  11. Just saw that they sell an Asus Mars Dual 760 for 300 euros, roughly 25 more than the MSI. Is that any good?
  12. Is the Nvidia 960 worth considering?
  13. WOW! Thanks for the quick responses. Seems like we have a winner...
  14. So apparently my old 7950 Boost was defective and I got it replaced with a Sapphire R9 280X Vapor-X Tri-X. Unfortunately enough, the card was so huge it wouldn't even fit in my Zalman Z11, so I have to send back the new card in order to get a refund and buy a suitable one. I'd like to get something in the price range of the Sapphire (250) euros. Also, I'd prefer sticking with the shop I bought the card from, just because of the good service they've proven to offer. So I've got two main options here: an Asus with DirectCUII and slightly overclocked to 1070MHz and a MSI with the TwinFrozr cooling solution and a max frequency of 1050MHz. They both have 3Gb of VRAM. The Asus is a tad more expensive, although I can afford it, and looks a bit better to me. I really don't mind the looks all that much (both are going to look terribly bad with a basically blue build). I don't think I need more power, I currently use a 1366x768 resolution TV (Yeah, I know...) Which one should I get? I'm open to suggestions (maybe Nvidia?).
