I'm about to order an Alienware 14 with the i7-4700MQ, 1080p display and GTX765M. Am I about to do a dumb thing? Should I get Win8? Is it still cheaper to buy the SSD I plan to put in and more RAM separately? edit: yes I need a "gaming laptop" and I need it by the end of the month, so any other recommendations would need to be available within a few weeks. does Dell normally do a 4th of July sale or something? am I dumb of I buy today?

WHERE MY HAT IS AT posted:You very probably are. What are you using it for? Do you absolutely need the quad core and GPU? Hadlock posted:I guess I'll be seeing you at quakecon?

How is the 14" Razer Blade? edit: apparently the blade has a not so hot screen at lower resolution, but it has actual battery life and look crazy much thinner than the Alienware. welp.

I'm a dummy and didn't realize that the Razer Blade took a mSATA drive, so I have to return this 480gb SanDisk Extreme amd get an mSATA drive. However, I can't find many large (~500gb) mSATAs. What brands/models should I be looking for?

gently caress, that is a lot money. i just discovered that this thing has two mSATA ports inside (allegedly), so I might just buy another 256gb. would it be possible to JBOD them?

Did you know that the Razer Blade 14" fails to POST when a USB stick is placed in any of the ports? Did you ALSO know that the support line for this rather expensive laptop is closed on the weekends? It's true!

looking at getting the new Razer Blade Stealth ultrabook. the standard screen is QHD 2560x1440 and for like $200 more there is a 4k display. do I really need all those pixels on a 12.5" screen? i'll be using it for CS coding classes and gaming a few times a year. also the battery life on the QHD is 2 hours longer. help me, sh/sc
