PS: thanks for letting me know about HTWingNut's review, it's not listed on the review sticky so that's why I didn't realize it was out.

 

excellent choice going with LPC Digital. They have some of the best customer service in the industry.

Once you get your laptop, please do let us know if you have any doubts or concerns.

 

Will do, thanks!

 

Hi Sharphawk, did you play with your new rig yet? Just wondering how was the 120Hz display holding up - not many reviews on it.

The P151HM1 was beautiful, wasn't she?

 

oh yes there is:

EVOC P870DM3 Review by Phoenix

 

That's a hefty rig you got there, with the Prema Bios! Great review - very detailed. But I guess the display on yours is different. I was interested in the 15.6 1080p 120Hz AUO TN G-sync display option given for the NP8153 (P650RS). Not much info on the net for that particular screen type so far. Your 3K screen does look beautiful!

 

The 3K screen on 17.3" size ie perfectly readable, if you go for the same screen on a 15" laptop, then I guess you would have to do some DPI scaling which works in some apps great, and in others looks blurry or messy. I'd go for FHD / GSYNC if I were to buy a 15.6" screen/laptop

 

Yeah, I guess that is why they have only the FHD 1080p 120Hz available at the moment.

 

makes sense, more practical on a smaller screen

 

I wouldn't mind 1440p tho. I find it to be a middleground for 15.6inchers with the kind of beast GPUs out there.
