    Need Advice for Laptop purchase!

    You should take a look at the Clevo W230ST/W230SS. 13" with 1920*1080 IPS display. Mine has an i7 4702MQ with a GTX765M. The new W230SS has a GTX860M. Most suppliers of these laptops allow you to choose HDD/RAM/CPU to suit your needs. You can probably get one new for £650ish drop in an SSD and...

    This worth £999? :) HP Envy 17-j110ea

    Agreed, the amount I see for repair or faulty returns on a daily basis is unbelievable! Stay away from HP.

If you can rip the product key out of the machine (built into the bios) you can download the .iso from Microsoft. Was it Norton Ghost? One i use in my workplace...

    £500 gaming laptop

    I am guessing i can't specify sites on here? They also appear on the bay now and again both in the 15.6 and 17inch (G74, G73) version. Luckily with mine it was basically a customer return, had a mouse, bag and 3D vision glasses with it. All unopened!

    ***The Official MSI 5850 Twin FrozeR Thread***

    You'll just have to try and see, ide say that 600watt is too little really, ive only got a 750watt power supply now, and im a little uncomfortable with that!

    ***The Official MSI 5850 Twin FrozeR Thread***

    You need to disable ULPS in the registry mate, had the exact same problem. Google disabling ULPS. Its pretty straight forward, however powerplay wont work after you do it. So its a case of weighing up whether you want higher framerates or a cheaper electricity bill :)

    I would like the bios, cant even overclock my cards unless i turn off ULPS in the registry and enable unofficialoverclocking in msi :( these cards arent that great really, i expected more, im having to pump 1.28V just to get a 900mhz core, my memory screws up on anything over 1100mhz
