    Hi, my question is simple, I'm in France and I don't know any reseller that ships Clevo barebones (i'm interested in the Clevo W650KK1) with nothing in it (no cpu/ram/ssd/etc), so does any exist ? (like eluktronics in the USA)

    thank you

    This chassis (launched in January 2017, so a bit out of date now with last Gen CPU and GPU) has both integrated CPU and graphics, so you can't buy the chassis without these. Without RAM, SSD, Wifi etc - lots do this including us but we don't have the W650 any more for the above reasons - it's end of life.

    thank you for your answer, maybe I've mixed up the references but it seem to me that this particular one supports desktop skylake cpu (I already have an i7 6700), checking your website out now

    Sorry - you're right. The previous W650 were integrated CPU and GPU but the KK1 is socket CPU - my bad. We didn't sell this particular model.

    You are not going to save much if anything unless you have some spare parts.

    ok guys, it seem pointless trying to find a laptop to fit the cpu that I already have so it looks like the best course of action is just sell the cpu and go for another laptop, the Tongfang GK5CN6Z is looking sexy, thanks for your help
