For grown-up gamers the Samsung Series 7 700G7 is the notebook you’ve always dreamed of. Hidden within its discrete and elegant design is the most powerful graphics card currently available – the AMD RadeonTM HD 6970M 2GB GDDR5. It also includes the blistering processing power of the very latest Intel® CoreTM i7 processor, Windows® 7 Home Premium and innovative Express Cache technology, so you can enjoy thrilling high-speed action all the way. An optimized Gaming mode and ergonomic backlit gaming keyboard also give you even more performance and control, while awesome 3D surround sound and a full HD 17.3” display bring games bursting into life. So if you want to play faster, bigger and harder, but do it with a real touch of style then you need to own the 700G7 notebook.

With its state-of-the-art graphics, powerful, high speed processing and stylishly elegant design the 700G7 notebook is the perfect companion for sophisticated gamers. Serious gaming calls for serious hardware. The AMD RadeonTM HD 6970M 2GB GDDR5 graphics card features a new and advanced architecture delivering unprecedented video quality and supercharged performance for the uncompromising gamer. With full support for DirectX® 11 it delivers visually stunning games, as well as significant performance improvements when viewing websites and using everyday applications.

Innovative Express Cache technology provides 8GB of flash memory on the motherboard that works as an ultra fast HDD. So it significantly improves startup, application launch, Internet surfing and information access speeds, while maintaining the safety and integrity of your data. Its intelligent, automatic caching takes 25% less time to boot up and starts Internet Explorer 50% times faster.

A next generation quad-core Intel® CoreTM i7 processor delivers bestin-class performance for the most demanding applications and games. It dynamically allocates processing power where it’s needed most using intelligent Turbo Boost technology. And when the notebook is in gaming mode it turbo cools the CPU, so it always delivers maximum performance even in extreme situations.

Give yourself an advantage by switching to Gaming mode. It turbo cools the CPU to keep it working at full speed for non-stop gaming action. The Windows key and touch pad are also disabled to avoid accidental interruptions, and the main gaming keys are highlighted in red, so you can play faster with fewer errors. Plus it activates special wall paper and theme controls. And when you’ve finished playing a simple Mode Dial lets you switch quickly to 3 other modes for optimum performance. Balanced mode is ideal for general use. In Library mode fan noise is reduced and any unnecessary lighting or sound is switched off. And in Green mode you can save power eg. during long downloads.

Features a high quality gaming keyboard with a desktop layout, including ergonomic u-shaped key caps, a 2.7mm keystroke and separated arrow keys. The keyboard is also backlit in white in dark environments or blue in Gaming mode, which also highlights the main gaming keys in red and disables the Windows key, so you can play quickly and precisely for maximum results.

With a full HD 17.3” LED display you’ll enjoy clearer, more vivid images in 16 million colors. Its 400nit brightness is also 2x brighter than normal laptop displays, so you’ll never miss a thing. And it has less mirror effect from surrounding lights, like lamps, so you can game for longer without your eyes getting tired. Enter a new dimension in 3D gaming and enjoy 3D movies and games in full HD quality. The combination of a 3D screen*1 working at 120Hz and active shuttering 3D glasses*1, using proven Bluetooth technology, produces much smoother image playback and more natural colors with noticeably less visual disruption. Enjoy high quality cinematic surround sound with Dolby® Home Theater ® v4. It delivers crisp and clear 5.1 or 7.1 channel sound through the built-in speakers and subwoofer, headphones, external speakers or a home theater system. So wherever you’re playing you can immerse yourself in full-impact surround sound and savor all the subtle nuances of today’s games.

Presumably this is effectively 20% off so you do still pay VAT and can still reclaim it as a VAT registered business? Is that right?

Nice deal from Samsung :D, but a bit :mad: they don't allow people that jumped onto that laptop early to claim back a % on the VAT even if it was half as a goodwill gesture :mad:. I could have saved £280 on it that way and it would have really been an amazing deal and I might have even grabbed 2 back then one for home and one for work. Ohh well, was still a good buy I think even without the VAT back and should not think about it because i'm really enjoying it and felt I got a good deal then too and still do, but this promotion from Samsung rubbed salt in the wounds of the early adopters of their technology.. Guys/Girls grab the laptop while the deal is on it really is a good deal from Samsung for 20% less but do shop around there is some really good deals floating about on that laptop and with the added 20% VAT claim back from Samsung it really is a deal not worth missing out on if you are looking for a highend 17" laptop.


Also the laptop price Gibbo quoted in the first post is wrong it is currently £1559.99 inc VAT £1299.99 ex VAT . Not £1599.99 inc VAT.

Heh, me too. I'm one of those people who always buy something expensive just before an awesome deal.

I can cornfirm that if you use the ONLINE claim procedure you DO NOT have to send anything by post to anyone. I.e. no claim form, no proof of purchase and no warranty card. It says this on the first page of the claim process. They haven't got round to updating the rest of the process though, so it still says to print and send off on the final page of the process. However I have rung them and they confirmed you don't have to send anyting by post.

Also, if you *are* claiming by post rather than online, then you don't have to hunt round for a warranty card if you product does not come with one. The laptop I bought does not have a warranty card, I would guess this only applies to things like tellys. But if you do it online you don't have to worry either way.
