    Greetings,

    I am looking for a new laptop, right now I have a MacBookPro Retina 13" late 2013, before that I bought a NP170HM (this one had a gorgeous matte screen).

    Been a while since I started looking for a new laptop.

    The first one I saw was the SAGER NP6850 (CLEVO N850HJ) but I have heard stranges things concerning about optimus compatibility and linux, besides that I would like something beyond the 1050 or 1050 ti.

    After that I saw the SAGER NP7850 (CLEVO N850HP6) with this configuration
    • 15.6” FHD 16:9 LED Backlit Wide screen (1920x1080) Super Clear Matte Type IPS Screen (The one with %72 NTSC)
    • NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 (6GB) GDDR5 (Pascal)
    • 16GB (1x16GB) DDR4 2400MHz Dual Channel Memory
    • 256GB Western Digital Black NVMe M.2 SSD
    • IC Diamond, no extra hdd I can buy it later.
    Seems pretty solid, but I read that the built quality was inferior to SAGER NP8156 (CLEVO P650HP6-G) and it has better cooling. And I thought well it is a little more but built quality is important.

    I wanted to check the 17" model of the P650, I think the name changed. And the current 17" model is the PA71HP6-G, I can get the same specs for a little more than $100 doesn't sound bad.

    I don't know if the cooling of one is better than the other or if the build quality of the PA71HP6-G is the same or better than the P650HP6-G.
