Ima gitting a laptop

[Microshockk]

I know you can Custom Build computers, which I have done myself but can you make your own laptop?

 

You know, like get a laptop shell, the screen, memory, video card, battery ,etc

 

Or you need the laptop from a manufacturer and then just buy some extra parts and stick it in the laptop for better performance?

Unfortunately you can't build your own laptop, especially not unless you want high end graphics cards etc, which often work in partnership with computer makers.

 

Like nvidia worked with Dell to make their Go versions of their geforce cards to fit in the XPS laptops.

Dell XPS m1530 with a NVIDIA 8600m GT graphics card. Buy 4GB of ram for it on New Egg for under $100 and select the T7500 as your processor. Shouldn't cost you more than $1400, even with a couple of extra add ons, and I think it's a much better value than the Asus.

 

proof pls

Well perhaps one day building your own laptops will be a possibility.

 

Buy the new World of Warcraft laptop for the lulz.

Well Ima stay away from Dell since me and my friend have had bad problems and experiences with them. I heard of the Asus and saw the specs on it and it was pretty good. lol looks like I gotta sell some 360 stuff lol

I don't know, I hear a lot of bad things about Ibuypower, mainly that their customer support blows ass and that you may end up getting a busted comp, which is a hassle to fix due to the first reason.

 

Read some customer reviews here, it's basically a 50/50 on reviews :
