Now i understand why you are against "Gaming Laptops" having dealt with the mediocre hardware prevalent in the Rog lineup. Oh and if you want the powerhouse 11" clevo with the 3612qm quad core (35W) and a Gt 650m, check out other Clevo resellers which are cheaper than Origin.. Here was one of the main threads on Nbr discussing it http://forum.notebookreview.com/sager-clevo/653705-new-2012-models-speculation-thread-wxxxer-series-w110er-w150er-w170er.html .
Nv i wasn't ever futilely trying to convince you to waste money on a Gaming Laptop, I understand that you prefer the stable and stationary benefits of being plugged in, not to mention the savings. Just advocating their merits to the greater masses, and attempting to curb the plethora of myths that are spouted endlessly, almost in a troll like manor as witnessed by AnyTrollName's most recent commentQuote:The thing is, that isn't the best desktop processor. If we were willing to spend large amounts of money on a desktop, we'd get a better processor than you can in a laptop.
in response to my link of a laptop with the "Best" Desktop processor the Sandy Bridge Extreme 3960x...
Well, even factoring in the fact that laptop is nearly 3" thick(and a whopping 12 pounds), I wouldn't really trust it to cool that CPU at any decent frequency.....
Also worth noting that you were a little bit off on your GPU there.
A single 7970m performs just below a 7870 - same everything with a lower clockspeed. It's obviously faster than my 5870m, but it's also 2 product cycles newer. My 480 tri setup still spits it out like old gum though.... and it should, we're comparing 200w to 750w. I don't see mobile GPUs overtaking it for another cycle or 2, depending on how monstrous Maxwell ends up being.... and irregardless, desktop GPUs will have gone through the roof as well.
Back from the grave and working on textures.
