I've been looking at ASUS G53SW laptops, and it confused the hell out of me how many different sub-types (the ***** in the thread title) there are! @@"
I've seen some such as G53SW-A1, G53SW-SZsomething, G53SW-XR1 etc etc.
As long as it has: i7 2630QM and GT 460M or better, I'm pretty much happy; the RAM and other stuff doesn't really matter to me (as long as it's not below 4GB).
I've looked at sites such as Xoticpc, HIDevolution, and others. All of them seem to only offer the G53SW-A1 customized laptops (~$1550), which I believe is not the cheapest of the G53SW-*****.
I'm looking for only 15'' laptops, it's surprising that for only roughly $150 more (compared to the G53SW-A1) that I can get a Sager8150 (~$1700) which has pretty much the same specs (less RAM and HDD perhaps) but a MUCH better 6970M graphics.
So I'm hoping there is a significantly cheaper G53SW-***** out there somewhere
1) Does anyone have any idea where I can get the cheapest G53SW model possible that ALSO has an option to ship internationally (to New Zealand)?
2) I'm thinking about ditching the Sager8150, despite the MUCH better 6970M it has, just because I think it looks nowhere near the awesome look of ASUS G-series
Is such thinking foolish because of how much better the GPU is? Perhaps someone who has a Sager can tell me that it in fact looks pretty damn good too? Or even better, is there a good-looking Sager?
Thanks in advance!
