    Hello everybody,

    I'm just wondering, is it possible to buy some stuffs which are not listed on Sager's website like localisation keyboard buttons, a fan for the bottom part which is empty currently in extreme edition.
    As well as maybe buying only the processor, ram, or dvd/blueray device.

    If so, how can I buy them?

    Thank you in advance,

    Rudy

    Welcome to the NBR forums. :)

    Yes, if you are wanting to purchase different language keyboards, just contact the vendor that has international support, then they will ship your system with that particular keyboard.

    As for RAM, CPU, HDD, optical drive (which are all standard) you can purchase that almost anywhere online... like Newegg.com

    Thanks Gophn, I'm from australia. But, I'm unfortunately addicted to japanese... XP~~~~

    I ordered one a month ago, but then i saw somewhere around this forum that actually we can order different localisation other than english.

    There are also Australian Clevo vendors as well... although they may be more expensive than US prices.

    Check out the vendors in the Clevo Guide.... also Japanese ones as well. :)

    I was also thinking about the possibility of a small third fan in the extra vent, you probably wouldn't have to hard of a time installing one, but providing it with power might be a harder task.

    @Gophn : wow, they have vendors in japan too.... thanks for the info

    @bigjohnsonforever : doesn't it suppose to have something like a free connector available for the 3rd fan? If i need to peel off some cables and solder it then I will forget it, or maybe I'll do later someday.
    Has a clevo guy ever responded to this kind of question before? Like a sort of simple guide to put on the fan?

    The Japanese vendors actually have some better prices than US vendors.

    Sager said that a third fan is not required at this moment and would unnecesarily drain battery life.

    If I order from Japanese vendor to Australia, would it still be much more expensive because of the shipping cost :S

    I was thinking like maybe with the third fan can reduce the heat on the right hand below the numpad near the SRS WOW sticker. But correct me if I'm wrong...
    So what Sager said means they do not provide a power connector for the third fan?

    What do you guys do on your np5793 to make the system runs cooler?

    Either use a notebook cooler (Zalman NC2000 is great) or if you don't mind the noise, max fans...

    -Raise the back of the laptop some 1.5-2 inches if possibe
    -notebook cooler
    -clean the fans for dust every 1-2 months
    -if possible, run games with vsync .
    -keep it on a solid surface, not on fabric.
    Etc...
