    I just purchase Eurocom racer notebook last night,
    HD6970m, i7-2720m.
    its 24 hours later, i still didnt get any email or phone call yet.
    is that Eurocom is believable???
    and how about heat dissipation of the Eurocom Racer?

    heh yea eurocom is very reputable, at least Iv never heard anything go wrong with them. The laptop in the recent xoticpc review shows its max at 93 celsius under full load which is very good. Normal gaming temps I would imagine would stay below 78 celsius. Here is the video review, its the same as the racer except the GPU is nvidias 485m.

    <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b1Kzwu_Hcqs?version=3"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b1Kzwu_Hcqs?version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width='640' height="390"></object>

    Also here is the sager racer thread in case you missed it( link).

    While I agree with Lamp, Toms hardware just posted an article of the x7200 with cf 6970's and did their review with benching in it. So, It could be possible that Eddie really is going to get that laptop, lol.

    Some of Eurocom's sales practices on this forum are pretty aggressive, but the company has been around for a long time, so they have to be at least somewhat reputable.

    It might take a while for them to get the laptop to you if you ordered one with a 6970, but I'm sure it will be delivered eventually.

    Actually are you sure you ordered one? It doesn't seem to be listed as a product on their page. I know they offered an area that would let you pre-configue a Racer, but I wasn't aware you could actually place an order from that page.

    Hmm, I would make sure that the 6970m they sent out isn't actually an engineering sample........

    The 6970m eurocom set to notebookcheck were engineering samples.

    As far as I know, the Racer isn't for sale by Eurocom yet.

    I determined and posted the link to what will be their sale page once it's officially available, but I don't think they've actually released it for sale yet.
