So i have recently been interested in buying a new laptop and after looking on different websites and talking to people i was told of Schenker and their laptops really appealed to me since i saw some companies(at least in my opinion) overprice their products, i have been looking at some XMG laptops and i really liked the A523 especially since it has the 4th gen cpu.
Now the real question is how should i customize it, and i would really like some help and tips on my opinion.
Matte Screen
GTX 765M
i7-4700MQ(2.40-3.40)
8GB (1x8192) was thinking that if i want more ram in the future i could just add another one
750 GB Seagate Momentus 7200rpm (ST9750420AS)
As for the WIFI card i have no idea what to chose since i read mixed reviews on them and was hoping for some advice.
Win 7 Home Pro
Was posting this cause i also wanted to hear from some owners on how their laptops are since i never heard of Schenker/Clevo before and i just want to be sure i am not buying something that would break down in 1-2 years.
Thank you.
Also i should say i am buying this in the UK.

hi
ive not actually seen that model yet as its so new but on a whole clevo laptops have been going for years and have many oem resellers around the world.
Schenker only opened their uk branch last year but the german office has been going for years.
im on my second clevo now. my m860tu is 6 years old and still going strong. as soon as mysn opened their uk branch i ordered on the first day of buisiness without any doubt and its been the best lappy ive ever owned. only problem is its old now after 1 year
at work so gotta rush
the matte screen is a must. best purchase i ever made. ive got the standard matte and it has very bright vibrant colours.
best bit about clevos is they are user upgradable so yup, just add more ram at a later stage.
dont know much about the momentus. as far as i know its faster than a normal spindle drive. to compliment a new system though its best to add a ssd at a later stage as they are so much faster than spindle drives.
ive got the intel 6235 and have not had any problems with it. just wish BT broadband would be the same.
the killer cards did have quite a lot of driver issues with many dropped signals over the last year but ive not heard much lately so that could have been fixed.
if theres any other issues you have the website has live chat and the guys are very helpfull and they wont try and sell you something you dont need.
good luck and keep us posted.
