Sager answer to New Dell XPS M1330

This whole time I've been thinking (and waiting) to get 5790 which I might still go for as it is the "daddy" out there in its league.

However - seeing the specs and pics of this new Dell, I'm thinking it might not be so bad to have a smaller machine which I can still use for gaming from time to time. I'm not comparing this dell to the 5790, I know there is no comparison. I am just wondering if there is a Clevo/Sager comparable machine that is out or possibly coming soon that is in the same size/specs.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

 

IFL90/Sager 2090. I think the IF00 might be coming out soon. 14" iirc.

 

2090 is a 15" model, and a bigger one at that. It's not comparable to the XPS M1330 at all.

 

IFT00 will only have a 8400GS I think

 

I say theres no real comparison with 13.3" laptops that Ive seen. I think if you want a portable premium machine then go with the XPS.

 

The XPS also only has a 8400GS from what i know..

 

Well so will the XPS M1330, too. 14"s can't have the same GFX cards as 15.4"s readily have due to heat restrictions on sizes.

 

Well... the Compal HGL-30 was the 14" gaming notebook that is going to be replaced by a newer model (w/ Santa Rosa and 8600M)

The Compal HEL-80 (15.4") has already been replaced by the IFL-90.

Sager, as well as other vendors, will carry the 14" version when it comes out.

 

Well he was considering the 5790, so i didn't think size was too important.

 

Thanks everyone - I don't know why I remembered that there was some sort of similar notebook from Clevo that was on it's way later this year, but oh well.

I'll take a look at the Compal and see what they are like as I am not too familiar with these. Are these from Clevo as well? or is Compal a "clevo" like company in that they also OEM?

 

Yes, Compal is an ODM, and a very large one at that.
