The Piranha is just 13.3" in size, making it truly mobile at just 2kg in weight with battery. The unit has a GTX 765M which can handle the latest games with medium/high details, also more impressively the unit features a 1920x1080 screen, which means the quality is absolutely immense on such a small screen having such a high resolution. So again for any kind of photography work the Piranha is ideal. Infact the Piranha is the laptop which does it all, being truly mobile whilst amazingly powerful in such a small footprint.

















If your looking for a laptop more dedicated to gaming we have the same level of specification as the Piranha available in 15.6" and 17.3" chassis with NVIDIA GTX 765M 2GB graphics, both of these are extremely popular as they represent excellent value for money at under £1000 for true gaming laptops, plus they feature NVIDIA optimus technology so battery life is very respectable, check them both out here:-





OcUK Gamer W350STQ 15.6" LED Full HD Intel Haswell Processor, 1600MHz DDR3, SSD + HDD, NVIDIA GTX 765M 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card - Windows Laptop - Cosmic Grey @ £929.90 inc VAT

LT-019-OE_400.jpg


For gamers the OcUK Gamer W350STQ is the perfect choice. There is no more powerful or better constructed option, with the latest 4th generation (Haswell) Intel Core I7 Processor there is no shortage of power and for those who only demand the most powerful, we can construct the OcUK Gamer W350STQ with an Intel I7 Extreme processor too. Though our own in house testing shows the best bang for buck performance comes from the Intel Core I7 4702MQ & 4700MQ processors, so we highly recommend these when choosing a processor option.

This chassis uses the absolute very latest in technology such as SATA3, USB3.0, Bluetooth, WiFi but the most impressive of all is the fact this system feature an NVIDIA GTX 765M with 2GB of GDDR5 dedicated memory for absolutely blistering performance. With NVIDIA Optimus technology means you can game on move whilst still maintaining respectable battery life.

With a LED backlit 15.6" screen with True HD (1920x1080) resolution games have never looked so good on the go or ran so smooth due to the power of the NVIDIA GTX 765M onboard graphics. The OcUK Gamer W350STQ features high quality THX speakers with Sound Blaster cinema technology for the ultimate gaming experience.

For memory we only use the highest performance and most reliable for laptops, which is Corsair Vengeance which is set to run at 1600MHz with T1 memory timings resulting in absolute instant response. 8GB is the default choice which is more than adequate for all task and gaming, we only recommend 16GB kit if your also doing a lot of photography work or heavy multi-tasking. Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz will extract the very best performance from the OcUK Gamer W370ST causing zero bottlenecks in the system.

For hard drive options, we recommend the primary drive as an SSD drive, this means from point of pressing power on your should be at the Windows 8 Desktop in approx 10 seconds and with an SSD applications and games load more or less instantly. Of course if you preferre capacity you can choose a large capacity HDD or a Hybrid drive too. Our recommendation is to select an SSD for the primary drive along with a HDD as the secondary drive for storage.

When you buy a Overclockers UK system/laptop the only software you’ll find is your choice of operating system. We guarantee that there will be no third party apps, useless bloatware or unnecessary trial software, to keep your machine running at peak performance from the start. We also only install the latest drivers which are proven to provide maximum performance when gaming.

OcUK Hardcore Gamer P177SM 17.3" LED Full HD Intel Haswell Processor, 1600MHz DDR3, SSD + HDD, ATI Radeon HD 8970M 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card - Windows Laptop - Black **PRE-ORDER** @ £1229.90 inc VAT

LT-020-OE_400.jpg


For hardcore gamers who want the best in mobile gaming, look no further than the OcUK Hardcore Gamer P177SM. There is no more powerful or better constructed option, with the latest 4th generation (Haswell) Intel Core I7 Processor there is no shortage of power and for those who only demand the most powerful, we can construct the OcUK Hardcore Gamer P177SM with an Intel I7 Extreme processor too. Though our own in house testing shows the best bang for buck performance comes from the Intel Core I7 4800MQ & 4700MQ processors, so we highly recommend these when choosing a processor option.

This chassis uses the absolute very latest in technology such as SATA3, USB3.0, Bluetooth, WiFi but the most impressive of all is the fact this system features an ATI Radeon HD 8970M with 4GB of GDDR5 dedicated memory for absolutely blistering performance. With so much video memory and such horsepower you can even output to a 30" monitor and still have great gaming performance or run a multi-monitor setup.

With an LED backlit 17.3" screen with True HD (1920x1080) resolution games have never looked so good on the go or ran so smooth due to the power of the ATI HD 8970M's onboard graphics. The OcUK Hardcore Gamer P177SM features high quality THX speakers with Sound Blaster cinema technology for the ultimate gaming experience.

For memory we only use the highest performance and most reliable for laptops, which is Corsair Vengeance which is set to run at 1600MHz with T1 memory timings resulting in absolute instant response. 8GB is the default choice which is more than adequate for all task and gaming, we only recommend 16GB kit if your also doing a lot of photography work or heavy multi-tasking. Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz will extract the very best performance from the OcUK Hardcore Gamer P177SM causing zero bottlenecks in the system.

For hard drive options, we recommend the primary drive as an SSD drive, this means from point of pressing power on your should be at the Windows 8 Desktop in approx 10 seconds and with an SSD applications and games load more or less instantly. Of course if you preferre capacity you can choose a large capacity HDD or a Hybrid drive too. Our recommendation is to select an SSD for the primary drive along with a HDD as the secondary drive for storage.

When you buy a Overclockers UK system/laptop the only software you’ll find is your choice of operating system. We guarantee that there will be no third party apps, useless bloatware or unnecessary trial software, to keep your machine running at peak performance from the start. We also only install the latest drivers which are proven to provide maximum performance when gaming.

OcUK recommends the HD 8970M models as they represent the best value for money as the 8970M outperforms the GTX 770M by quite a margin and comes very close to the GTX 780M though is not as fast, so if you do want the best the GTX 780M is the way to go.













Extreme/Ultimate Gaming Laptops


Our Ultimate Gaming laptops are so fast they actually outperform most desktop gaming PC's as they utilise Crossfire/SLI technology, of course a desktop utilising the same technology will be faster than these laptops. But when you consider that a GTX 780M SLI Gaming laptop has more graphics horsepower than a GeForce Titan you can truly recognise how powerful these SLI/Crossfire laptops truly are, so check them out here:-


OcUK Ultimate Gamer P370SM 17.3" LED Full HD Intel Haswell Processor, 1600MHz DDR3, SSD + HDD, ATI Radeon HD 8970M 4GB GDDR5 Crossfire Graphics Cards - Windows Laptop - Black **PRE-ORDER** @ £1,679.90 inc VAT

For those who want the ultimate gaming laptop then look no further than the OcUK Ultimate Gamer P370SM. If you need serious graphics gaming horsepower, this laptop features a pair of ATI Radeon HD 8970M 4GB cards configured in Crossfire. With the latest 4th generation (Haswell) Intel Core I7 Processor there is no shortage of power and for those who only demand the most powerful, we can construct the OcUK Ultimate Gamer P370SM with an Intel I7 Extreme processor too. Though our own in house testing shows the best bang for buck performance comes from the Intel Core I7 4800MQ & 4700MQ processors, so we highly recommend these when choosing a processor option.

This chassis uses the absolute very latest in technology such as SATA3, USB3.0, Bluetooth, WiFi but the most impressive of all is the fact this system features two ATI Radeon HD 8970M with 4GB of GDDR5 in Crossfire configuration. dedicated memory for absolutely blistering performance. With so much video memory and such horsepower you can even output to a 30" monitor and still have great gaming performance or run a multi-monitor setup.

With an LED backlit 17.3" screen with True HD (1920x1080) resolution games have never looked so good on the go or ran so smooth due to the power of the ATI Radeon HD 8970M onboard graphics cards in Crossfire. The OcUK Ultimate Gamer P370SM features high quality THX speakers with Sound Blaster cinema technology for the ultimate gaming experience.

For memory we only use the highest performance and most reliable for laptops, which is Corsair Vengeance which is set to run at 1600MHz with T1 memory timings resulting in absolute instant response. 8GB is the default choice which is more than adequate for all task and gaming, we only recommend 16GB kit if your also doing a lot of photography work or heavy multi-tasking. Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz will extract the very best performance from the OcUK Ultimate Gamer P370SM causing zero bottlenecks in the system.

For hard drive options, we recommend the primary drive as an SSD drive, this means from point of pressing power on your should be at the Windows 8 Desktop in approx 10 seconds and with an SSD applications and games load more or less instantly. Of course if you preferre capacity you can choose a large capacity HDD or a Hybrid drive too. Our recommendation is to select an SSD for the primary drive along with a HDD as the secondary drive for storage.

When you buy a Overclockers UK system/laptop the only software you’ll find is your choice of operating system. We guarantee that there will be no third party apps, useless bloatware or unnecessary trial software, to keep your machine running at peak performance from the start. We also only install the latest drivers which are proven to provide maximum performance when gaming.

Most of you are probably wondering why is the NVIDIA unit so much more expensive, well first reason is the obvious one, which is that the GTX 780M's are a lot more expensive than the AMD HD 8970M's, but the not so easy to spot reason is because the NVIDIA powered laptop uses a 120Hz screen with 3D Vision and also comes with 3D Vision glasses. So you get improved fluidity of a 120Hz screen and the ability to game in 3D. Infact the 780M SLi laptop is so powerful it has no issue playing games on a 30" monitor at 2560x1600 or running NVIDIA surround, it truly is a powerhouse!













So I see their are options - what should I select?


All our laptops are customisable by you the customer, you specify it and we shall build your dream laptop. Of course these options can be confusing to some, so to help you understand the choices better here is an explanation of them and our recommendations:-


Processor

Even the entry level Haswell processor - the 4700MQ is so powerful with 4 cores and hyperthreading, giving a total of 8 threads, this is actually our recommendation as it has more than enough power for the very latest games and most demanding task. Of course should you feel the need we can build your laptop with an Extreme Processor, but in reality it will not give much more performance in games when gaming at 1920x1080 or higher resolutions as this depends mainly on the GPU being used.


Memory

We only build our laptops with Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz SODIMM memory which delivers excellent performance, so all you need to decide upon is the quantity of memory you require. By default they come with 4GB of RAM which is setup as single channel, for the most part 4GB of memory is enough, but we recommend 8GB of RAM. This way there is slim chance you will run short of memory plus you get the small performance boost of dual channel mode. Of course if your doing photography you can even select 16GB of memory and should you need to a later date most of our laptops are upgradable too 32GB.


Primary Drive

For the primary drive, or otherwise known as the boot drive, we highly recommend an SSD for many reasons. SSD's have a 0.1ms random access time, which is over 100x faster than your fastest hard drives resulting in much faster loading times, for example from a cold boot the OS can load as quickly as sub 10s and browsing images or loading guys is vastly quicker. Of course SSD's have much faster read/write times too along with much lower power usage so they help to extend battery life. As such we highly recommend a 60GB/120GB SSD as the primary/OS drive.


Secondary Drive

If your laptop has the option of taking a secondary drive, you can either choose not to have a secondary drive or you can install another SSD or a larger mechanical SSHD from Seagate. SSHD or otherwise known as Hybrids try to the mix traditional technology of a HDD along with SSD, you get the best of both worlds essentially, near SSD performance, but the capacity of a HDD. We'd recommend a 500GB-1TB SSHD as the secondary drive.


Optical Drive

If your laptop has this option you can select a DVD-RW which will allow you to install applications, play music CD's or even create your own music CD's or backup data. Alternatively you can select a Blu-ray drive so you can watch the latest movies in Blu-ray quality.


WiFi Options

Our OcUK Custom Laptops come with a plethora of high end WiFi options. These options include a host of Centrino certified Intel PCIe cards that feature Wireless N, Bluetooth and unparalleled compatibility with intel chipsets.

We also offer a range of Killer Gaming Gaming Network Card.
A Killer Gaming card delivers maximum networking performance for online games, whether you're playing MMOs or first-person shooters. Featuring Advanced Game Detect™, Killer 2100 automatically classifies and accelerates traffic to your game ahead of other network traffic for maximum online game performance and a competitive edge.


Build Options - Fastrack Service

We typically aim to get your laptop to you within 5 workings days, of course this can be longer in extremely busy times like Christmas. As such we offer a Fastrack service for a small premium where you can essentially skip the queue and get your laptop within 48hrs or even 24hrs as long as you order before 10am on the basis everything is in stock and its not a laptop on pre-order. So if you need that laptop urgently then use the Fastrack service or buy one of our pre-built Express laptops.


Operating System

We highly recommend you choose and operating system as we shall install the O.S. along with all the latest drivers and ensure everything is working perfectly. If you don't choose an O.S. then you are responsible for installing the operating system and all drivers yourself.






I hope this guide makes your experience of shopping with OcUK easier. :)

I've built a 15.6" HD 8970M 4GB one last night and OMG is it fast. In heaven it is practically matching the GTX 780M, gonna run some game benchmarks and get a video done today/tomorrow. :)

Also one thing we have noticed is the stock TIM's which come in place for the CPU/VGA really don't cool well enough, causing even throttling issues when ambient temperatures are hovering around 30c due to the current hot weather.

As such I've given the instruction that all OcUK built laptops shall now only be built using our own special ultra high performance thermal compound, in my testing we've seen as much as a 20c improvement and of course this makes the units operate more quietly as the fans don't have to spin as fast.

Were not willing to name the compound simply because we've spent hours testing all the various makes but its the stuff 8pack uses and gives the best results. :)

Hi there

I've just ran same benchmarks on an OcUK P157SM with 8970M 4GB Graphics using exactly same settings as yourself at 1920x1080 as I assumed that is the resolution you ran at:-

Lastly a picture of the laptop. :)

Sorry about the photo's just took them with my phone on my very messy desk. :D


Too summarise:-
GTX 780M 4GB is 11% faster in Tomb Raider at 1920x1080p over HD 8970M 4GB
GTX 780M 4GB is 20% faster in Hitman Absolution at 1920x1080p over HD 8970M 4GB


In short the GTX 780M is hugely powerful, but for the money the HD 8970M sometimes comes within 10% in games of 780M and cost considerably less. :)
