What is the difference between this and N850KP6 ?

 

EDIT: Sorry, scrap that - thought you were asking something else!

 

It should be the same but I'm not sure

 

Yes it looks like a name change.

 

its been renamed to n950kp6

 

Hi! @clevo-extreme
Do you have photos of the cooling system for this model?

Is it just me, just the pictures or does the back of that chassis look cheap as hell?

Haven't seen one in person yet but I asked if I could get a few photos when next one goes through over here.

 

Thanks!

 

Added it to noteb.com , but hell this thing is thick! 3.7 cm ? Most people want laptops 1 inch thick. But it's the price you pay for a desktop CPU. What impressed me is that they managed to implement Optimus with a desktop CPU. The P750 series don't have Optimus.

To be honest, the price is outstanding.

 

Does look pretty good, CPU makes a big difference in price.

 

So does this mean the GPU is swappable or is that built into the board? Same with CPU, will it be swappable as well? This looks like my go-to if CFL1 laptops don't have an upgrade path.

 

From what little I can see on it, the CPU will be changeable but not the GPU.

 

Damn. Was hoping for a 1070 if that was the case.

 

Something fully socketed at that base price would indeed be amazing.

 

That's more the job of the bigger units.

 

Sure does! It will be interesting to see which CPU SKUs end up trending and which ones get opted out of, too.

 

When an h370 and a coffee lake cpu?

 

I'd also like to see how a coffeelake version would shake down, since the i3-8100 will be quad core.

 

The K I3 adds a lot but the non-k does look like very good value. A consistent 3.6GHz on 4 cores 4 threads is very decent.

 

Is that i3-8xxxk compatible with z170? Or z270?

 

Anandtech did a good article on the 8th gen information that can be currently released:

https://www.anandtech.com/show/1186...ation-coffee-lake-hex-core-desktop-processors

 

Doesn't look like it, I think they're enforcing it across the board, not just on higher end chips.

Yep, pretty much everyone should have it in now.

couldnt find GPU cooling system.

Here review in Chinese.
http://www.noteforum.co.kr/news/index.htm?nm=44027

 

I signed up as i picked up one of these to test out and see how well it is so far no complaints my version was the Sager NP7950 Version which drivers were a bit tricky at first as i opted for no windows on my build. In the last few hours i have gotten it all set up and so far everything is pretty sound i planned on benchmarking it tommorow

 

I'm really curious about your tests

 

Nice, I look forward to your results

 

Cinebench results are in an I tested it on a handful of titles that I had
i opted for an Intel Core i5 7400 for the time being with the intention of updating it to a core i7 later on

OpenGL held at 87.65 FPS
CPU got a 549 CB

Bioshock Infinite held a stable 75 FPS
Doom held a stable 79 FPS
Fallout 4 held a stable 72-75FPS

Overall even with the desktop i5 I'm impressed with what it can handle so far.

 

I forgot to mention under 1080 game loads the temps held in the 68-72 degree threshold and there was no thermal throttling either

Do you have a photo of the gpu heat sink?

 

Sounds like you are all set for nice performance across the board

 

I'll get one in the coming days the heat sink is below the plastic frame visibly see that it has two heat pipes similar to the cpu heatsink

 

Yes it could be quite hard to reveal, I would just take a shot of how you see it now.

 

what about noise under load? is it loud?

 

Coming from my Alienware 15 R3 this thing is much more quiet in comparison

 

Here is some pics of the bottom chassis unfortunately the GPU heatsink is hidden under plastic but i tried to get a pic slightly sideways showing where it is hiding at.

 

Nice pictures

 

Hello. I want to buy this laptop as well. Should i go for cheaper i5-6600k or the more expennsive i5-7400 ? They are around 80 euro diff on ceg hardcore.
