Question
U.S. UPS Ground is ok?


And any opinions
THX ~

 

a WUXGA would be nice.

 

those things are such a good deal right now. that seems to be made on a budget, so its hard to recommend upgrades, but if you have a little extra money i think the next cpu has twice the cache as the one you have there, it would be a decent increace in performance to have a larger cache. there is nothing wrong with UPS ground, although it does take alittle longer its proabably worth it since any extra money would be better spent on upgrades.

 

false. 6MB cache offer less than 5% performance gain compare to 3MB cache.

 

get the 4gb turbo memory and bump up the screen to 1920x1200.

 

bad recommendation. turbo memory is simply trash worth.

 

for normal user and gaming, WUSXGA is a bad idea, it will hurt your fps! WSXGA+ is good enough though!

 

yeah i am using it for mainly for gaming

 

1. MUST get intel 5300 wireless, it has 3 antennas.
2. u may want to ask sager about the specs of two lcds, current macbook lcd is 600 brightness, dell led is 400 brightness.
3. wprime score of 2.5 cpu is 30.8, 2.4 is 32.8s, 2 seconds diference. its up to u.

 

for the wireless, wts the difference in performance?

 

I have just ordered mine
same spec as above, just change 5100 to 5300
looking forward to get it !!!!!!!

 

Congrats...I think the 5300 has longer range.

Woooot mine's arriving tomorrow...it kind of feels like Christmas Eve.

 

mine arrives tomarrow tooo!
i know how ya feel splinter!

 

i just hope mine will arrive next weekend ~

 

Finally ordered it. Made the mistake of ordering the 5100 though. I have not paid yet, so I sent them an e-mail to replace it to 5300. I ordered it two days ago. do you think they will fix it for me? Traveling over to a friend in Atlanta in three weeks so it will be exciting to pick it up.

 

my order is processed
anyone knows how long does it take to build?

 

I think it wouldn't take more than a day or two. Shipping might take a little longer though.

I ordered mine last Thursday morning.
Upgraded the LCD and processor and got the 5300 as well. Can't wait to get it tomorrow since no one delivers on Thanksgiving.

 

from payment to shipped: 1 week

 

AWESOME! Now begins the worst part, the waiting!

I ordered expiated building and it took 4 days. I HAD to have mine before I left on a trip. It arrived about 2 hours before I had to leave.

 

Omg thats so close
its must be a business trip or i guess u wont have time to play games
anyway building time seem to vary

btw i think the hardest time is to choose
cos u dont want to throw $1500 on a trash
waiting is cool cos now i have the time to do researches on games

 

"Expiated building?" What's that, where the builder says s/he is sorry for f-ing up during the build process?

Just joshing

 

orz
u might get a perfect-second item

 

That's a thought! Perhaps it means that the builder has had a priest/imam/rabbi/<your favorite religious/spiritual advisor's title here> come in and give the system a blessing before it's released to shipping.

 

^^^ - Yea, must be something like that

goldenhk - Anyway nice build you got there, think you gonna be happy with it Atleast hope it will serve you just aswell as mine serves me

 

it is shipped today
and shd arrive on 21st
cant wait to get it !!!

 

how long it you get it?
very nice config im sure you'll enjoy it

 

lets hear how you like it Goldie

 

i am getting it tmr
any test i shd do on it be4 i do anything?

after that i might write sthing about it

 

Testes: The testis (or testicle) is the male *** gland.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

At any rate, most people tend to run Windows Experience Index (for all the good that does) as well as downloading 3dmark06 and giving it a shot. A reminder, there's a variation in 3dmark06 scores, so don't start panicking if your score seems lower than you expected. You may also wish to download HW monitor to check out your CPU/GPU temps.

Also, look for any physical defects. Another issue you may want to check is the 5793's headphone jack. I.E. here

 

First thing I do when I get a computer is check out/set up the bios, then run memtest to check for ram errors.

 

yep, 5300 wireless for sure. that's a pretty strong machine for the money !!

 

hi

now i have got my Sager
the built quality is just great!

however i have got questiosn
1. the font size is too small for me, since i was using a 1024x768 screen be4
2. i c 2 programme files files, 1 with a (x86) after it, which shd i install programes into it?
3. another problem: the default mp3 player now has become nero3 ?! how can i change it into window media player

ps: as for the noise problem
its pretty noisy, but not too bad IMO

 

1) Hold ctrl key and either press +/- to increase/decrease font or use the mouse wheel.


3) Right click a mp3 file, propeties, and find the Opens With option and then select "Change". WMP should be on the list of recommended programs.

 

the reason you have 2 program files folders is that you are running windows 64bit.

64bit programs go in program files, 32bit programs go in program files(x86).

In general the programs should choose the correct folder automatically
