    hello all,

    anyone know of a Clevo reseller in USA that has good reputation (unlike hidevolution from all the bad experience posts I've read on here)?

    I am in the market for a Clevo P377SM-A (Sager NP9377-s), reason I am not going Sager is because only Clevo version seems to offer build option with 120hz screen as seen here:
    http://www.hidevolution.com/clevo-h...der-ultra-high-performance-gaming-laptop.html

    It's strange that Sager version of the laptop has no such build option, otherwise my choice would be a lot easier.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    None of them have it.. Only Eurocom has it and their prices are a rip off... Anyways, @funkybudda is looking to get one from the NBR marketplace which has the pannel + cable ready for installation..

    seems my only option is hidevolution.com, their customer reviews on this site is so bad that I dont want to deal with it. I mean does ANYONE had good experience with them?

    Sager really need to match the kind of build option that Clevo has, I dont understand why they cant...

    have you tried contacting xoticpc. On their site they do say Don't see an upgrade option you want? Contact us directly, and we'll get it added for you!

    Thanks for the recommendation all, but unfortunately we are not able to get the 120hz at this time, Sager doesn't have them available :(

    Have you tried Malibal? They seem kind of pricey, but from their website, you can configure a Nine X570 with a 120 hz screen, and dual 980's

    No idea, just what I saw from looking at various builders/resellers. I went with Mythlogic recently (just yesterday, in fact), so I can't recommend them yet, but so far, everything has been good. And all their online reviews seem good as well. They don't have a 120 hz screen, though.

    I will be finding out. I'll pave the road for future purchases. I went out of my way too make an accountant on here and several review sites because it was so difficult for me to come to a conclusion to buy a and find reseller so I chose HIDevolution and I'll be updating on my experience for sure. Hope it goes smoothly

    Sager really need to match the kind of build option that Clevo has, I dont understand why they cant...

    No hiding the facts there are complaints from HIDevolution and they are plain to see but who doesn't have complaints. Xotic reps claim to pride in at least being given the benefit of the doubt because they tend to wounds respectively and I can go with that. So now it's HIDEVOLUTION turn and I'll be the spot light for future buyers.

    I put my order today and I'm really excited!! I'm in the same state as them so let's see what happens. ($1900)

    By the way I'm being taken care of by the infamous TED! He was great pre-sale as expected . So far everything moving along great.

    I went through LPC-Digital for my Sager 8658-s and it was incredibly smooth and fast! Larry also responded within 24 hours, many times within one or two. I got the maximum discount, about 150 USD cheaper than any other reseller. Highly recommended, come to think of it I should write a proper review. Have had it for almost a month and it is perfect.

    Proper review would be nice in terms of services and time for order etc.
    Yeah lpc digital was amongst my top choices just concerns here and there led me a stray so I went with two others and finally came down to HIDEVOLUTION plus it's near my area.

    Let me know if you do a review.
