is justin still with xoticpc?

hi guys been out of the loop for a while. planning on ordering a 8690 and was wondering if justin is still with xoticpc(hes the owner right?) and if they are still your top choice.

cheers

 

Yea he is, hes one of the people I dealed with when getting my 8690(sadly backordered the day after i ordered)

 

Talked to him when I purchased my NP8662, very helpful guy!

 

Justin is a good man. He will take good care of you when you purchase your notebook.

 

I emailed him before about the availability of laptops from XoticPC worldwide, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him. Seems to be a very nice person.

 

Yah I went with PcTorque on my purchase due to some kind of validation problem with my bank card on Xotic's end, but was happy when Justin himself was responding to my emails by the next business day. He is a dedicated owner, and really looks out for the small time consumers, unlike some people..*cough* Mark Bialic *cough*

 

On a side note, travelbug are you robert baynosa?

 

PMed him 10 days ago about my notebook (VGA died), he asked for my s/n (on the bottom of the laptop), no response yet

 

My experience with Xoticpc is a very very good one ...

I got my setup from Xoticpc and I am very very happy with it ...

Justin is extremely helpful and is always happy to hear and help ...

I highly recommend Xoticpc to anyone who wants to get a setup like a sager ...

I know that I can count and trust them ...

 

I believe their are 2 Justins @ XoticPC.

Both, i'm sure are still there I believe.

 

Both myself and Justin W are still here. Feel free to PM or email if I can help with anything.

 

Oh. Justin and Justin W are not the same person? Lol. Is Justin W active in NBR?

 

Justin?

Can you put a D900F mobo in a 18.4 inch frame? can I have sli or crossfire in that frame witht he D900F mobo?

Thanks in advance for any energy spent on my noob question, JW

 

Justin W is also active on NBR. His account is Justin_W@XoticPC.

JWnFL - Sorry we are unable to provide a D900F with a 18" Screen.

 

i thought you were justin w too

ive contacted him through email again regarding the availability of the 8690.
hope to get one between nov 10-20 which is when ill be in the states

 

There is not enough room in the 18.4" SAGER NP9850 Built on Clevo M980NU to squeeze in the D900F Mobo?

Is it a not enough room height wise.. the D900F seems taller if that makes any sense?

and if it can not be done.. do you have any good inside info for when a real i7 laptop will have an sli / crossfire option? near future.. or never now that the mobile i7's are here?

Thanks for the responce Justin and TIA for any steerage for the upcoming (if at all) sli / crossfire in a laptop..

Be well, JW

 

Unfortunately with laptops, the chassis' are not a standard design. The laptop internals are different for each model, hence a D900F mobo will not fit in an M980NU chassis due to it not being designed for it - everything would be in the wrong place, vents/fans wouldn't line up, neither would connectors, screws or anything else.

The reason the D900F does not have sli/crossfire is due to power/heat limitations. The D900 series power supply is already 220W, adding another gfx card would increase that by 75W and the power brick is bricky enough already...

The only time you will see any chance of i7 paired with sli/xfire is when the i7 refresh comes out with lower power chips, then there might be enough spare power to take another gfx card. And that's if clevo think it's worth designing another whole new laptop to take it.

 

Thanks Riko.. I was playing with the idea earlier.. but I was set straight with regard to the fact the dollars involved where not justified..

I would like to see a real i7 with sli or cross fire with a dual screen.. but I also would Like Santa to bring it to me.. both seem un-likely..

But thanks for the response Riko.

Be well, JW

 

the guy I delt with when purchasing my Sager at XoticPC is Joseph Lee

I've never been more satisfied from a company's customer service in my life. Joseph is a very knowledgeable, polite, dedicated person, he answers all questions to the best of his knowledge.

So a big thumbs up for XoticPC and their staff.
