Is it wrong I want an MSI GT80 Titan?

Seriously. I tried some Cherry MX Browns the other day and thought they were okay. Blues are my fav (but i'm still on membrane) and I love the idea of a massive mobile workstation. I like being able to carry a massive workstation in my backpack. Or "desktop replacements".

 

I mean, I would love something like this. A lot.

 

Is it wrong that I do? I mean, it's probably inconvenient as fuck but 100% spec porn.

If you're rich, why not?  Get a case of brandy while you're at it, a new SLS AMG, and some cigars.  Make it an evening.

No it's not wrong to want one, but there are definitely more efficient ways to spend your money..

 

I don't think that the massive dual-GPU DTR notebooks make a ton of sense. For the laptop to include dual GPUs (and the cooling for them), it has to be inconveniently large and very expensive. For the price, you'd be better off getting one of the powerful single GPU notebooks and all the mechanical keyboards that you need (and a desktop as well, depending on what you get).

 

 

I feel like the GT80 Titan is the notebook that everybody wants but nobody's actually going to buy. I'd love a mechanical keyboard in my laptop, but the price and bulk of that thing are too much for me to consider it. Given that I'm going to be doing most of my gaming on my desktop anyway, I'd be perfectly happy with a laptop that offers midrange gaming performance (and a reasonably pricetag).

Actually, you dont have to worry about the keyboard position because it comes with a wrist rest as well as a backpack.
