Hardcore games? MMORPG’s. COD4. All that good stuff
what kind of games do you think your going to be playing because 10 or less frames per second modern warfare is lame
The Sager NP8690 is one of the best 15.6″ notebooks available (along with the Asus G51J-A1). What gives it the edge over the latter is the GPU (the ATI 5870 is the best single laptop GPU in the world right now), and the warrany — no one beats Sager’s warranties.
Built upon the Clevo architecture, Sager’s chassis are one the the best (next to Asus) in the world, and now that you know this, get the Sager. You’ll be maxing out all the current games as well as perform extremely well with future DX11 games.
