I stopped reading here:


Shit :(

Lol, what a BS. 17.3 and fullHD is too mainstream ? What's the problem, lack of 4k monitor which can only be powered by SLI/CF (980 or 290x)? There is no single GPU yet which can play the most demanding PC games at max details under 60 fps min. Period. Until that 1200p is maximum.

It doesn't matter if there is a GPU to handle it or not. Here it is a question of superior display quality, something this laptop lacks.

Well, it's being marketed as a gaming laptop so whether or not it can handle 4K in gaming with only a single GTX 980m is relevant and I don't think it can handle 4K. 1440p would have been nice though.

Sadly there are plenty of laptops being marketed as "gaming" but none of them are designed to adequately handle the heat and stress caused by their components, ultimately they break down much quicker than laptops in regular usage.
I always advice those intent on gaming to build a desktop system.

Dude, this laptop is for gaming.
If you want laptops with superior displays there are dozens out there.
Besides, this puppy can barely play the games with full details on 1080p anyways.
Chill.

I would appreciate if you show me a 17-incher with 4K IPS display.

Thank you.

If you can't, then take your words back and apologize.

Even you know that you are wrong and despite this continue to protect a lost cause.... :rolleyes:

And no, I'm not trolling. The laptop is a shit even for gaming........ not to mention that you will not use it for gaming only. That would be a stupid waste and throw of your money. :D

Meh! :roll:
