http://www.razerzone.com/blade?utm_source=Razer&utm_campaign=blade&utm_medium=edm_en_cons Razer just came out with a new gaming laptop. I must say, it looks pretty impressive! The touchpad doubles as an LCD that displays game info, and includes customizable hotkeys. Anyone considering it? $2,800 MSRP It packs a 1080p, LED-backlit 17.3-inch display, 2.8GHz Core i7 processor, 8GB of RAM, an Nvidia GeForce GT 555M video card with 2GB of dedicated memory, a whopping 60Wh battery, a 320GB HDD, the standard assortment of ports and connectivity options, and the crazy Switchblade UI — which combines 10 dynamic, adaptive keys with an LCD capable of displaying in-game info or functioning as a mouse — all into a 7 lb. black aluminum chassis that's thinner than a 17-inch MacBook Pro.
wait wait wait wait.....LoL and not a WoW background? Well that just made me not wanna get it for my next computer what would you guys say, get 400-500 dollars off an Alienware computer (around $2300 pre discount) or build my own?
Build your own. I took a look at Alienware a few weeks ago and they have fallen very far since Dell took over. Only 3 or 4 processors (no AMD) choices a few unspecified make ram choices forced bloatware it's just horrible now. If you must have somebody put it together try and find a parts store that will let you pick your parts then toss it together for you for a 50 or something. I'm going to use NCIX.com but I'm Canadian and I have no idea what the import charge would be but they do have a U.S. site (but I think it's still shipped from Canada). And I'm only doing it so I don't end up playing RMA tag with parts. If you don't mind ending up with the chance for an RMA or two order from Newegg and put it together your self.
