  1. Do you think there is any value in waiting for a few months while manufacturers come out with other laptops?
  2. Alright, that's pretty compelling, thank you for the information, I guess I'll be staying quite a ways away from Razer. That said, you didn't actually recommend anything, do you have any recommendations? What about @Pendragon's recommendation of the NP8152-S NOTEBOOK from Sager?
  3. Hi, thanks for the suggestion! I was actually seriously considering the Blade, however, with Nvidia releasing their new GPUs for laptops, I wasn't sure if getting this would be the right move any more. When Razer releases their updated laptop with the 1060 or what not, this would drop in price drastically. I was hoping Razer would have some sort of information as to when they would update their laptop with the new hardware, but I couldn't find any, hence this post about my other options.
  4. $2700 is too far above what I'm willing to spend, I was hoping to hit an absolute maximum of about $2000. Do you have any other suggestions? Would waiting for more laptops to come out in the coming months be a viable strategy?
  5. I was considering the ASUS ROG GL502VS-DB71, however, reading the reviews I was worried that the laptop would not have the durability I need. I need this laptop to last for the next 3-4 years, and I'm not sure the laptop will be durable enough to last that long. That said, I must say I've never bought a windows laptop before, only ever built a windows desktop. So I'm inexperienced with all the laptop brands, can I be assured that this is of at least reasonable quality?
  6. Hi Antony, I appreciate the video, however, it's not relevant to me. I am an international student, so having a desktop and taking it to and from college in another country is impractical. I do however see his point in the video and it makes sense, but only really if I'm staying in the country I am attending college in.
  7. Hello Everyone, I am in need of a new laptop to use in university, however I'm conflicted in what to get considering Nvidia just released their Pascal line of laptop GPUs. I need a laptop that can hold its own against games today and play them at decent settings. I am also fortunate in that I can afford to spend around or above $1500 on the laptop. Another really important consideration for me is build quality, I need the laptop to last for the next 3-4 years. Right now I'm quite lost in that I don't know what I should be looking for or if I'm looking in the right places. I would very much appreciate any suggestions or help.
  8. I'm using a GTX 580 that I'm fairly certain is on it's dying breath. Winning this would go a long way to helping me build a better rig for use in college. Thank you for the giveaway guys! You guys do awesome work.
