The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    is the GPU upgradeable on these things? If it is that would be a killer system with a 9800gtx and a x9100

    That is such a great deal... however this notebook kinda feels cheap. The plastic feels like the bottom of the barrell kinda stuff. But i still think its a steal for that price
