    That is a similar rationale to why my wife married me I think... I assume she puts up with my noise because of what's under the hood... she does throttle me from time to time though O.O

    No worries, Clevo's have been like this for ages. My 8 year old M570TU sounds like it will take off every time I game on it.

    Yes, they are oldest Clevo Resselers in Poland.
    I love their warranty and fast support. I had faulty GPU [dead vrm] - after informing them I had new one after 48 hours. :)
    Good contact, competent support and they are quite friendly. I gladly recommend Hyperbook. Best warranty I've ever had atm. They are also participate in many events in Poland, this year they done VR-Event in Warsaw (my friend went there).
    You should speak with them. You have nothing to loose. :)

    Thanks!
    I am also hesitant because they don't accept Paypal, Instead for online payment they only accept payment through a website called Transferuj.pl which I don't know how much is it reliable...

    I'm using transferuj.pl to pay on Aliexpress and wargaming games (WoWs, WoT). It's fast and safe. :)
    They're probably not using paypal due to high commission/provision for transactions (that's why I personally dont use it too).

    Hmm, 5 Xiaomi MiPads 2 Prime (W10) + accs (bigger order with my friends since we love Xiaomi phones/tabs). That was my biggest payment via transferuj (about 1700-1800usd).
    Company I've been working in (about 1y ago) had contract with transferuj, it was ok (I don't remember any problems).

    Can anyone explain the difference between the P775DM2 and P775DM3 ? Size, features, pros and cons, etc. ?

    im assuming its similar to the P870DM2 vs DM3: DM2 is for second-tier and lower gpu (in this case, 1070 and 1060), whereas DM3 is reserved for 1080. so a DM3 should sport a beefier internal cooling system, maybe also a vapor chamber heatsink?

    Awesome, thanks!
    Really keen on your input.... Keep it coming :)

    I am also thinking of going for this model from metabox.
    I can wait a bit though, so would like to see how the 120Hz panels go.

    Didn't check sorry, but i reran Fire Strike after a very mild OC to the CPU and GPU and got 17,322, with the CPU reaching 87 degrees, and the Gpu peaking at 70 degrees... how are these temps? I'm very inexperienced so I don't want to fry my new lappy lol

    Cpu under 90°C & Gpu under 75°C are what you should aim IIRC.

    I'm very tempted to buy this system. Anyone know if the mxm for the Gpu will let me upgrade to future gpus? (rebranding of pascal / Volta) Or it's just a gimmick?

    That's actually absolutely fine (I expected the temps to be much hotter)! The CPU is a little hot but that you could probably help that by applying new thermal paste by yourself (easiest and most effective for beginner is IC Diamond). The GPU runs pretty cool, which is definitely reassuring. In the P870DM3 the 2 reviews in this forum both report extremely high (90+) temps on the GPU and CPU (both).

    Is it only the heatsink that is different ? I mean, that's what I need to know. I;m looking to buy a P775DM2 because I only need to 1070 and I want my laptop to be lighter. I carry my laptop to work everyday.

    4693mhz on the CPU-Z, max temps seemed okay and no other evident issues, but was just a bench not a stress test ;) Just having a bit of a muck around...

    Just ordered this beast.
    I ordered 4 GB 2133mhz ram so I can upgrade.
    Which one do you recommend?
    Hyperx 2400 MHz cl14 OR Corsair 2666 MHz CL18?

    As far as I can tell, that's the only potential difference. Comparing the 2 on Clevo's site all the hardware options are the same, other than the 1080 in the DM3 of course.

    Please make short test (5-10 minutes) with Prime95 and Unigine Heaven. Then we will see real cooling performance.
    Also, which settings are you using for fans? Automatic or Overclocked?

    CPU under 90*c is good score.
    GPU temperature awesome! My 980M on OC fan profile reaches 73*c/82* automatic... :p

    From which reseller? Hyperbook?

    This is my second Clevo from Hyperbook. The first was actually purchased when Hyperbook was still called Bluemobility.
    The owners are the same, however when I bought my first Clevo (back in 2012) they had just recently purchased the company (Bluemobility).
    I was one of the first clients, and Mr Łukasz (the general manager) personally delivered the laptop to my apartment in Warsaw.
    We sat down, ran some tests together. He was really curious what I thought of the results. The laptop was a beast back then. And then he was on his way.
    I cannot say enough good things about the company.
    Hopefully this will not change after receiving my P775DM3 this Friday.
    I presume it will not. The purchasing experience has been phenomenal so far. I actually spoke to them today how the order is going.
    Will update on Friday..

    I can look at specs online as well. I was wondering if a someone who has actually seen both laptops can tell us what the difference really is.

    Those temps are really better than the 870DM3 imho, maybe delidding can help for more OC headroom & cooling, Also ICD7 is done by many Clevo re-sellers but I think they apply that too much, I would always prefer to do the TIM job first whenever I get a machine.

    Curious to see the insides of this beast, that HS is the real point of interest for many.. ;)

    Clevo's 4K GSync screens are 100% Adobe RGB @64Hz no OC anymore, this was said by Prema at T|I & 120Hz FHD AUO 5ms has pending GSync ransom license from nGreedia.

    Thanks for that info, is that that same for the 1080p g-sync panel?

    I assume that the 120Hz FHD AUO panel won't support g-sync?

    You cannot go over 64hz on 4k. That's a bandwidth limitation.

    Good to know, so my only options are:

    4k 60hz w/ G-sync
    1060p 60hz (OC to 75hz) w/ G-sync
    1080p 120hz No G-sync? (Coming soon?)
    And this is on the 15" model?

    Not sure what's in store for the 17" -- I thought I heard a 2560x1440 panel was coming at some point.

    NICE! That is quite the beast...

    Question -- on that model, if you disable SLI (let's say for travel) -- can you get away with only using 1 330watt PSU?

    I'd be curious if you can, just in case you want to travel with only one 330w (and only one 1080 active)

    It was for the P870DM3 with 2x 1080 SLI and has around 37,600 GPU points. Both cards ran at 90/89°C though, the CPU also in that region. He posted the same screenshot again in the P870DM3 thread.

    I would guess that the 120hz screen is the same as the MSI one. They get G-sync, so I would guess that the Clevo one will too, or am I wrong?

    I can wait to know for sure, but i've got the money burning in my pocket...

    that shouldnt be a problem. @HTWingNut's quick review of the P870DM3 showed wattages befitting a single 330W psu with sli disabled at stock clocks and voltages :)
