Hey, guys
I'm about to purchase a new laptop and my expected setup would be a Sager NP8265 ( Sager NP8265 Gaming Laptops - nVIDIA GTX 770M - CHRISTMAS SALE! Was $1,719 - Now $1,519 - Save up to $250 ) with a GTX 780M. I wanted to know if anyone has an idea if a GTX 780M GPU would heat too much on a 15"6 laptop, and, also if special cooling, lilke the IC Diamond thermal Compound is needed.
I'm from Brazil, and I'll buy the laptop from an online store, and ask them to deliver to my hotel or to a Fedex store when I go to the US in March. I'm kinda concerned cause if anything goes wrong, like a malfunctioning or mail problems, it would be hell to try to get ir right, cause then I would spend a fortune with mail from and to Brazil, that if I just don't lose all the money.
Would you have any advice? Powernotebooks.com really seem awesome, but do you think it would be best to just buy one from Best Buy, even if its more expensive and not quite the setup I was wanting?
I'm a bit tempted about Ibuypower.com as well, cause there's free upgrade to 4800MQ and some games and other stuff for free, but those bad reviews really make me hesitant.
Thanks

Best but won't give you any help if things go wrong...
If you are technically inclined we can work with you to diagnose any issues or fix them over the phone but if there was a hardware fault that developed after shipping and it needed to be sent back then yes shipping would be on you.
If you ring us up we can go through the options with you -
Thanks for replying.
What about the heating? is a gtx780M too much for a 15"6? The Thermal Coumpound is a must, right? -

The 15 inch and 17 inch share the same cooler.
