    Hey guys I am kind of looking at the 5792 right now since the Alienware m17x isnt out yet and would probably be to expensive anyway. I am also located in the UK.

    I wanted to know :

    1] How good the speakers are in terms of sound quality as well as the loudness? Is the bass/treble decent?

    2] Can I have two hard discs in one of these?

    3] How good the cooling system is with a Core 2 or Penryn and an 8800M GTX

    4] How much of a difference is there between the 5792 and 5793 ?

    5] Besides Rock and Novatech which other Clevo/Sager resellers can I get it from in the UK that allow atleast some customisation?

    Thanks in advance

    1. There is a review on the main page. Read it well (it's well made too).
    2. No.
    3. It's a good cooling system, but makes some noise there (clearly audible).
    4. The 5793 comes with a better cooling system (bigger heat pipes) and with 8800M GTX/extreme Intel CPUs support.
    5. There's Evesham too and DPC Tech.
    In UK, I'd very much suggest Novatech. The price is great, you get a decent warranty (with pick-up and return) and it's really loaded.

    To answer 2 of your questions...

    - No you cannot have 2 HDDs
    - 5793 has a better cooling system (read the review on the front page of NBR :))
