*** Official Clevo x7200 and Sager NP7280 owners lounge ***

i've also got two "lazy" pixles, not sure what to call them but i gotta tap the screen to get em going. i hope they get better and not worse. Also, anybody's touch buttons not working? My volume + and BT dont work at all, and my wifi button is really difficult to recognize my touch.

 

Great Job, Soldier!

Whoa!

 

It's "normal" if we're talking about USB 3.0
Try booting with the 2.0 populated only.

 

Sailor *cough* thanks

 

Try reconnecting the connection under that panel

 

Well, ive reconnected it a couple times now while accessing the area under the keyboard and it hasn't made a difference yet.

 

Hmm, anyone else have any ideas? Unless that part is actually broken I cant think of any other remedy

it's all i got..

 

did you get yours dex?

 

Thanks but after just flicking it lightly a few times they havnt come back for a while. But i think we were curently talking about the touchbuttons, my volume + and BT button dont work. I've tried unplugging and plugging it back in (under the panel) and checked the cable, it seems fine.

 

no not quite yet. it will be delivered tomorrow.

 

alright..cool

 

Wow that's fast

 

yup, not bad.. 3 days to ship and it shipped on the 18th. has to go from LA to BC.

 

I just hope that sager will Hasten up their Released of those Backordered Notebooks , so fat I could get my soon (hopefully first week of November)

 

so finally pulled the trigger on the x7200. Congrats

 

Yeah! Thanks!
How about you? Are you getting it too? I'm getting way too much stuff to be delivered next month to me

 

hehehe not yet, still happy with current laptop and my desktop

will monitor the 470m performance and the bigger psu

 

I'm replacing my Current 4yr old Dell inspiron 1300 it's still working just that the screen broke down* :X

 

Mine did that the other day, i had been doing work on it, came back after lunch and to my surprise my computer was off, when i turned it on it just posted and rebooted about 6 times, then started properly... I suspected it was after a Windows update.

 

Hmm are we to turn off Automatic windows update? I'm worried.

 

Anyone of you had opt for the TV tuner? I'm still considering as I have a tv Plug near my power sockets. Just need some of the user reviews about them.

 

I have not had a problem with my 7200 and I have auto updates enabled.

 

Same, no issues.

 

i wish i could just get internet on mine, no personal internet here

 

460M SLI vs 480M SLI what kind of performance difference should I expect? I try doing search but the only system that seems to be using 460M SLI is the X7200 so if someone can point me to the right direction, I would really appreciate that.

 

It will be a few more days or so before anyone has the SLI 460M in order to compare it with the 480M SLI. By the first part of November there should be posts right here in the forum on this topic...

 

Next week, next week!!

Only I7-950 and GTX 460M SLI!! But very good to compare with a 980x and 480M SLI Setup! And I can compare direct with my X8100 (940XM/GTX 285M SLI)!

 

I would really appreciate that.

 

But it will only be a few days before YOU get hands on it right?...

 

Hi,
we offered „Upper1“ a normal x7200 (no ES / QS - ES have serialnumbers like x7200000c > march 2010!).

This notebook has no differences to the massproduction. It arrived 4 weeks earlier than the mp and Clevo has labeled these ones with specific codes.
The card isn’t a cheap engineering card.

The socket has been tested and it works without any problems. In case there are any problems we are happy to deal with it.
We will look into the problem with the WLAN.

The warranty for the main board cannot be given due to the over clocking by the customer to 3,3 GHz.

Furthermore, there were a price-reduction for little signs of use and for a test by the press.

 

ooooh...busted!
lol

i would sure hate to own a clevo now...if that's the case.

 

Why would you void someone's warranty for overclocking the X7200? Isn't that one of the features Clevo advertises? This is part of the reason I'm very reluctant to ever buy another Clevo/Sager in the future. The warranty and return policies are sketchy. When I bought a W860 from XoticPC last year, it arrived defective (Justin did a good job in ordering replacement fans right away but the problem ran deeper than that) so I opted to return the faulty system. Well I lost out on initial shipping costs and Sager required that I insure the package and use fedex/ups to return it. I ended up incurring close to $200 in losses for a system that was defective to start with. Their policy does state that if you return a system you will lose initial shipping fees but I wasn't aware of the insurance portion of returning it. Nonetheless, I think a defective system should be excluded from such policies and the responsibility should fall on the reseller/ODM and not the customer. In several years of dealing with Dell, I have never paid for shipping expenses for a defective system or otherwise.

 

Yes, overclocking is part of the whole advertising and one of the main points of this lappy, overclocking should not void your warranty at all!!!

 

only time it should come in question is if you
a: hard mod the board for more voltage
b: the circuits are clearly shown as to be tampered with.
c: you have burn spots all over the board
d: you altered the cpu to use more voltage
e: you have soldering skills of a 5th grader - lol j/k

 

no doubt... when i first broke into ocing the d90x series.. bios hacking and processors.. i had vendors asking me to write howto's for them to post on their website to gain more customers as a selling point.

 

Overcloking aside the system, as bought, should not trip the power source, no matter how intesive of a software it runs. slowing down, yes, thats normal, but shuting down, that's not.

ANd myself, i dont plan on overclocking whatever laptop i will end up buying, but even so, im not sure even a 460m sli and a 950 cpu will fit inside the 300w power brick, allthouhgh i might be wrong.

Speaking of wich, could i use the 300w power brick on the x8100 ?(wich comes with a 220w power brick)(45or55w cpu, + 150w GPUs leaves little room for everythingelse)

 

how is the plug for the x8100? because i believe the x7200 is using the 4 point plug like the older d900 series?

 

I have no ideea what so ever, never seen live any of these laptops. So that's why im askin'

If that's the type of treatment you get after sales support from Clevo you can keep it.Poor show.

 

^^^^Yeah...she is a cool running machine...
_____________

 

I notice in there video that all 4 of the ports on the bottom are open. Mine and others I have seen have one that is sealed up? Any ideas?

 

The GPU benchmarks of 5870 vs 480's are very similar... The 5870's still somehow have the GPU benchmark records to this date, kind of dissapointed no ones broken it by now.

 

lol.. not many people have these units ..yet.. just you wait.. when i am done with this beast.. it will at minimum need that extra 300w psu.. and murder those amd gpu's...

nvidia--there can be only 1

 

ya.. but if you don't want to go permanently cross-eyed and have a brain aneurysm.. you need at minimum 120hz to do 3d properly.. 60hz per eye.. heck my tv has 600hz.. yay viera!

 

sorry...not one to easily to be fooled.. . and 3d is not something im into. a cool gimic and all, but that's about it.

and no benchmarks yet?

 

heh, most theatrical movies are 2,35:1. ya still get black bars

i setup my projector for a 2,35:1 constant height screen for those movies.

 

Eurocrap is the exception the rule.. they have a stockpile of video cards.. and also claim to have cards they don't have too :S

 

Could you be a little less obvious you're a Eurocom smurf account? Calm down on the postings and you could've pulled it off.

 

rotflmao!

say it aint so.

lol
