Rumor: HP is Working on a Gaming Laptop

This is from Tom's hardware. 

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/hp-hewlett-packard-gaming-notebook-haswell,27166.html

 

 

Softpedia reports that Hewlett Packard is getting ready to launch a gaming laptop that will compete with Dell's lineup of Alienware gaming notebooks. The news arrives by way of @evleaks, who provides screenshots and hardware specs of an unannounced HP laptop that's slated to arrive this fall.

I think this is great. Not so great that Tom's hardware seems to think the dell is the only competition. 

Clevo is my personal favorite, but I do own a dual gpu alienware and love it, as I bought it used and didn't get raped by the price. I'm happy to see more competition in the gaming laptop market.

Now if MXM GPUs would just get cheaper...

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Laptop docking area- 2 1440p korean monitors mounted, one AHVA matte, one samsung PLS gloss (very annoying, yes). Trashy Razer blackwidow chroma...I mean like the J key doesn't click anymore.

Do they really need to "work" so fucking much on it? I mean unless it's something revolutionary like gaming on the size of a surface 3 or something, you just pick up your parts and that's it there's not much to it since they don't develop anything themselves

If it's like the Alienware's laptop and for the same price, I don't see the value in either. For the same price I can buy an MSI GE70 with 16 GB of RAM rather than 8, 1TB of storage rather than 500GB AND a 128 SSD.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

Believe it or not they do. No, it's not like they are responsible for the performance. But a lot goes into making the board and designing the machine. Personally I have a love-hate relationship with HP laptops. They are not bad at all most of the time

Yah that's been their trend lately. 

My GF's laptop got clogged and upon cleaning and repasting it, I discovered that part of the heatsink didn't have anything to carry the heat to it, and therefore was useless. WTF lol

u47975-0.jpg

See this? notice the smaller heatsink for dedicated graphics? Well on and AMD APU version, the heatsink is still there but the fan has plastic blocking airflow to it and there is not a heatpipe to it. Usually most manufacturers just chain both to the same pipe on APU versions . Why not just daisy chain them? lol lazy assholes.

I know I mean is not as easy as a desktop system I get that, but it is also not as hard, this "working on a gaming laptop" kind of "news" to me it's just PR manipulation most likely. I'd love to be wrong and see a truly amazing laptop or unbeatable price but the chances of that are virtually none.

Yah I'd agree. And no one will beat clevo for cost/performace. 

Id doubt hp will be great quality or enough to justify spending more. Even MSI is not the best. 

Believe it or not alienware is great quality, but way to fucking much money. And their warranty and support is shit. So despite the feel and solidness, if the do break you might very well have a bad experience. 

Now if clevos would just get better speakers and audio...

I have another prediction. Instead of having a higher-end gpu/cpu and decent ram/storage, this laptop will have shit loads of ram, top of the line storage, a fucking ridiculous screen, an ultrabook-level cpu, a GT 840/850m, and be 1.5 inches thick for $2k.

I think you're just taking it the wrong way. The article is in their news section, and HP working on a gaming-worthy laptop (something they haven't done in years since they bought VooooPC) is actual news.

 

The last laptop they made that was remotely gaming-worthy was the older Envy 15/17 aluminum laptops which were discontinued a couple years ago. They were nice laptops IMO and I was planning on getting one - only bad thing was that it was branded as a Beats by Dre laptop too.

I just looked VoodooPC up and now I really want one of those chassis.

Not interested.

 

No matter what innovations HP pull off, they damaged their brand ages ago with their POS computers on the very low end and forever cemented themselves as the maker of subpar desktops and printers. Why would i want a product from a company that takes zero pride in their work?

Marketing is going to be key on this one. Non-enthusiasts link the words 'gaming computer' to very specific brands like Alienware and Razer and this is based solely on their marketing. I'm also interested in seeing if they'll go for a more professional look or go all-out red or green color schemes.

 Can confirm HP make the worst cooled and built laptops around. I see all brands of laptop to fix and I loath HP, you need to pull the whole thing apart to do the simplest jobs, the cooling is horrifically bad and the TIM is always solid as a rock. The only thing HP has going for them is the Part numbers which makes it easy to find spares albeit not from HP themselves since they normally cost more than the machine itself but makes it easy to get the exact part for the model of laptop from ebay or other second hand dealers which is extremely use for HP since they break all the time due to they aforementioned awful design. *rant over sorry*  

 

Edit: perfect example being my misses machine, i5-4410 with HD4000 IGP overheats while playing such ball busting titles as Don't Starve and Binding of Isaac. It has one thing to cool, that being the CPU since its got an IGP and it fails uttery at that. But don't worry guys they added a (and I'm not making this up.) Coolsense button. Now don't let them tell you its just fan control because the fan will already be running full whack during regular use. All this does is underclock the shit out of everything. So its really a slow down button because we've no idea how to cool a laptop. *rant over for real this time.*

I have a picture of the thing. It was so completely fucking retarded I had to take a pic of it.

Look at that! What's the use of that heatsink on the top? Are they daft?

 I agree they are the WORST at cooling. 

Imagine a gaming laptop from them.

My m18x with the 2920xm from 2011 can OC to 4.4ghz while maintining heat. It's cooled great. 

Now hp, they better step it up if they are to cool a gaming notebook. Or underclock it.

If they could do a budget one, with a 850m and a low end i5 or high end i3 for about £500 - £600 that'd be great.

 

There's already 50 billion other "gaming laptops" out there with 870 and 880m gpu's for £1300+. Try aiming for a market that's begging to be broken into, I know at least 10 people who i'm friends with who'd be willing to buy a lower end "gaming laptop" that's capable of Minecraft, CSGO, LoL, DoTA, CoD and practically any indie game out there.

NO NO NO! The 2 hp laptops I have both needed GPU reflows.... both of them are still broken. If this is gonna be another trend with "Man I gotta reflow the GPU/CPU again" then this is gonna be horrible. But if they get it right and if its cheap then I'd love to get one myself.
