    Hey guys,

    For some odd reason my P25W laptop review thread was taken down / delete. I have asked moderators where the thread went, but so far after 2 months they got nothing to say.

    So instead of letting my videos that I had posted on that thread go to waste I will post them here with a brief summary of FPS performance. I will update this later with other games.

    Temps:
    Idle: 34-40*C
    Games: 60*C
    FULL LOAD 84*C

    Noise:
    Yes it gets pretty loud, however keep in mind you can hear my roomate using his PS3 controller. Sorry for the bad quality also, I was holding an iPad 2 with one hand.



    It does get loud at the end, but it never goes full blast when gaming.
    Its nearly silent when idle.


    Games:

    Star Citizen

    Early Pre-Alpha Build, game is very demanding. [Not Optimized yet]
    Resolution: 720p
    FPS: 25-40 with an average of 32 FPS
    Performance: Playable

    I have a few questions that'd I'd love to hear some feedback on.
    I recently purchased an msi gt60 and ended up returning it, first off I'm not one to complain about thickness it comes with power but it was no joke as thick as my college chemistry book.
    The p25w looks to be much more acceptable could you take a picture with it next to a book r another laptop for reference?

    Second question, as far as fan noise how often does it kick on during regular task such as surfing the Web and writing papers? The gt60 literally kicked on like every 20 mins I expect this when gaming under load etc, it was probably one of the biggest deal breakers for me though not horribly loud, during a study hall it might as well be a jet engine. With Optimus technology I would of expected a more normal laptop experience when not taxing the system.

    Third question I've heard the Haswell gpu runs a little hot, I've considered having xotic pc repaste, worth it in your opinion? Was looking at the Lenovo y510p but the temp that thing runs at people imo are making a horrible investment and probably why they only cover it for a year.

    final question for anybody to awnser, has anyone seen the cf4 version available anywhere? While the yellow is not a deal breaker (how often are you looking at the back of the screen) I would prefer the matte black.
