*** Official Clevo x7200 and Sager NP7280 owners lounge ***

Kobalt systems has x7200 up on there website and will start shipping from 24 September 2010.

Welcome to Kobalt Computers - High Performance Custom PC's

 

lol when i configured it , my mouth dropped.. i could have bought 2 G73s for the price.. IMO , not worth it unless u got money to splash like the guy in post 1... who sells yatchs..

 

That's why Asus created that cheap piece of junk--for "budget minded" dudes like you. Besides didn't you say you had trouble lifting something the size of the M17x? Well the X7200 is about the same size so it would probably stress your arms too much.

 

No HDMI in looks like a deal breaker for me. Its kinda ugly to me too.

I noticed that Eurocom has dual 470ms for the X8100. Its only a matter of time now before the "less expensive" resellers have it.

 

It does have a HDMI in, its a factory fit optional extra so you will have to contact the retailer to see if they can request one or have a unit with it in.

 

Oh, i stand corrected!

 

Really excited to see if this gets 470M SLI. I may go for my first dual GPU system if it happens.

 

Any news 'bout release ??
I've already ordered it with one GTX480M and the i7-930. Can upgrade to the 990 when its on table for free

But will it really take 2 (two!!!! ) more weeks ??

 

Congrats of pulling the trigger!
It'll probably take even longer than 2 weeks to ship. You will be very lucky to receive yours before mid October.
BTW, who did you order it from?

 

I've ordered it in germany - living there

The distributor of my clevo-trader said that they will be there at the latest in 2 weeks!

 

Sager NP7280 (X7200) is now in stock in Sager's inventory and under Sager final verification testing. Orders will start shipping next week.

 

Yes, and there is no pricing at this time. Very soon.....

 

Honestly I can't even decide which one to get. Speed wise, this is unmatched but the X8100 is too beautiful to ignore plus it has the 18in. screen.

Both have more power than I need currently but who said overkill in a notebook is a crime?

 

Will the 470m Sli be better than the 480m Sli ?

Thanks

 

No, but close to it and it GTX 470M SLI is about the price of ONE GTX 480M... so the price/performance ratio is way better.

 

Below is a couple of pics of the 300w PSU for the x7200...

 

^^ So you got it already?!
How about some benches?

 

Show us more pics babyhemi! I'm so fcking excited about this MONSTER ^^

and no new information for "official" release in germany :/

 

^^^^^hopefully soon....

 

God! The teasing is driving me mad!!

But I think i like it, my poor heart cant take too much more teasing, please!

 

We're waiting with eager anticipation

I'm hopefully looking to purchase one of these beasts with SLI 470M's when they become available.

 

i dont know if this is cross posting but just to let you guys know...

( already posted this on one of the other threads asking for us resellers )

finally! first one to post up that the x7200 is for sale is rjtech.com
im waiting for this for months and it finally showed up.
cant find it? click the tiny 2 and it will show you.

to rjtech reps (if theres one here)
make the tiny 1 and 2 maybe a little bit bigger

maybe by monday it will show up too on other resellers
( or rjtech will get more sales )

maybe a discount for me? just kidding.
have to save up for this beast now
( and a lot cheaper compared to.. you know )

 

That will be a nice SLI barebone, once the 470M drops.

 

Anyone have any idea of when that will happen?

 

A month or two

 

lol, german wordings, then a "made in china" at the bottom.

 

X7200 ordered!! can't wait to receive it i know is going to be next week but i don't know when

here is the reseller website he has the best prices Sager, Clevo, Gaming Laptops, Custom Notebooks, Custom Laptops, Intel Core i7 Extreme 975

 

Order or preorder

 

Congrats Speedy, I hope its a speedy delivery, hehe.

You better give a comprehensive review, and we want pics coming out of our ears everywhere!!!

I'm excited for you, dont know how I'm gonna cope when I know its arriving for me!

 

well they going to ship next week i guess is order , when order from dell or hp you have to wait like 15 days i hope i see mine before that

 

i want to be honest i am bad with reviews but i can post pics and benchmarks that's for sure

i can't even begin to tell how exited i am because i love new tech i hope you can place your order soon thanks

 

Lol, thanks man!

Waiting for Kobalt uk to have them in stock, I'm pathetic and keep looking at pics of the thing, loads of pics would be superb, thanks dude. What spec did u order?

I have 2 ocz vertex 2 ssd'd 120gb each and a 980x waiting to go into mine, the sli 480m option is just too much of a rip off, one will do for now

 

i just get the barebones with 2 480's i have ram ,ssd and i7 980x already waiting here is kind of fun when you put your components in and you know what kind of job is done

 

Ahh, they gave you the option of getting barebones huh, how much?

 

the price differences from UK and USA are big so we can keep that private i don't want to make you feel like you missing or backwards

but you can contact my reseller to get a quote if you want

 

Yes, I will contact them, you're right we do get ripped off here in UK, but it will never change and we're used to it

Did you get the all important HDMI input option?

Shame. Your reseller only ships to USA destinations

 

sweet machine, heres hoping the best for the x7200 owners.

 

Ill get the 285M to 480M changed and a WUXGA next week.

 

i don't know about the HDMI input that's something really interesting to check

sorry most of the USA resellers don't ship overseas tough

 

you already have the X7200 with 285's ?

thanks i appreciate that

 

Yep, 10 days already.

 

cool how it feels is some like the D900 or like the 870cu how is the build quality ?

 

Build quality is very good, better than D900X imo. And the CPU temp is really cool unter load.

 

Jesus Christ of Nazareth!!

Where from?? Pics pleeeaaase!!!!

I suppose the XTU overclocking is not available cause you dont have a 980x inside it??

Benches, Pics, tell us everything please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

thanks i was concern about that only , the cooling on the clevo's is the less thing i worry and specially with a 32nm CPU. is even better

 

He's so lucky, 10 days already, wow

 

Lucky indeed, though the only way that he already has one is if he works for Clevo or a reseller.....

Also make sure u account for import tax, vat and shipping
if u order from overseas, price differences are usually mostly down to VAT.

 

Yes, may just wait, if I order only VAT is payable, no import duty on Laptops, and you're right, shipping costs are a biatch!

And don't even talk about warranty claims, if I needed to claim what a nightmare that would be, will just have to wait for the sloooow and overpriced UK to catch up

Just got a reply back from Speedy's reseller though, nice price!! Buying from them even with the silly high price shipping is still cheaper than buying from UK lol, even if I get stung with customs charge tax.

 

A pity, you'd lose the warranty in that case, unless you could transfer it/buy it from a nearby reseller... Probably impossible. You could ask Neil though, he's a nice guy and may find a compromise.

 

Neil at Kobalt? Yeah they're good guys, very helpful.

I JUST GOTTA BE PATIENT! Will buy from the superb customer service company that is Kobalt, I'm so childishly imaptient, its pathetic
