    Yes an odd mix at first glance.

    Firstly PWN PCs (Custom P150EM) were excellent, very fast (1 week to ship), understanding, and very skilled at putting up with me.

    I've ended up with an excellent base to play with and have always had excellent communication from them.

    You can certainly buy with confidence.

    Eurocom (680M upgrade pack), after the 7970 issues (out of their control) it was nice to see what they were like. The upgrade pack was very nicely packed and shipping was reasonably quick (the card was tested before shipping).

    I would feel quite happy ordering another from them in future.

    A PWN PC is the fastest notebook in the world... I can't say I'm suprised :)


    Thanks Meaker, always a pleasure, never a chore! Been following your work and I am impressed!

    I've had to stop myself from getting a 3720qm lol, would be very naughty.

    Imagine the P170EM with a +400mhz 3720qm and a 680M @ 1087mhz core clock. Just silly performance to make desktops cry.

    I'm afraid at that point you run up against Hex core x79 setups with 3x680s overclocked and running water cooling lol.

    Just wanted to say, PwnPCs have been brilliant with my order so far. Ordered a NP9150 with AMD7970m. Left it a couple of days before i started reading the trouble with those cards and enduro for BF3 multiplayer. This is going to be my main game so I decided I would need to cancel my order and get a 680m. Unfortunately I don't have the funds for that just yet but I am waiting pending funds on Ebay. Emailed them. Great response times. Very helpful and they are going to allow me to pay the extra amount for the GTX680m when I get the funds and then just change my original order. Once I have paid that amount they are changing the build and sending it off with the 680m instead. Brilliant company so far, highly recommended.
