*** Coming soon *** custom built laptops from OcUK

[d|b]

I hope the cases look pretty...

A "No OS option" would be nice. I guess you're just getting ODM laptops, rather than designed from scratch (the case) One thing I found lacking is cooling.

 

[bledd]

nice..


you should make a 'super battery life' model (ie, using slower, low power usage components), with a bad ass battery in it

 

[rjk]

why do you always make me spend money in you shop!!!
stop with the temptation!

 

[ninja2000]

Are these likely to be clevo's?

Really interested if you will be doing the 15" capable of 9800gt

 

[Slinger]

oOoO, where are these pre orders....

 

[iraiguana]

^ sounding interesting!

This is great news. My girlfriend really wants a midrange laptop but with a decent gpu so she can play her games.

Will be perfect in getting her a new one for college

 

[taz488]

could you give us a price range? im looking to buy a lappy for £300 and wanting to know if you can beat the acer aspire range for price/performance

 

[Xiler]

sounds good might just hold off buying a laptop for a few weeks, could use 12-14" versions

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

What sort of warranty would be available on the GPU's? We wouldn't want a mobile 8 series farce like we're currently witnessing.

 

[Scoobie Dave]

This sounds like a really good idea!

Now you can get the laptop spec that you really want.

Would be great to be able to build it yourself and have upgrades in the future etc.

Does anyone have any pics of what the case would look like?

 

[fail at the internets]

This could be interesting if the prices are right!

 

[.:MBK:.]

like others have said, if the price is right this should fly, id certainly look at it if the price was good

Hi,

The first batch of mid to high end laptops are now on the site - value and higher end to follow within the next couple of days.

We have used the latest Centrino 2 chips and included solid state hard drive options; other things on the list include - oc versions & blu ray.

We'll have some close up shots of the laptops tomorrow when we receive the high res images from the manufacturer.

Interested in any feedback that you have!

Cheers,

Rupert

pics of the chassis please!

hope they're lookers too, spent all day browsing for a new notebook and now found this thread!


/edit, ooops laoded this thread hours ago and din;t refresh before my reply, looking good!

 

[Gilbretto]

Too expensive for me i'm afraid.

 

[Slinger]

Too pricey for me too, will have to wait what the lower to higher end ones will be priced.

 

[ninja2000]

Also agree price is a little high.
there is not enough customisable options either.

I personally am looking for a 15.4" clevo with 9800gt for approx 1k. I am not bothered about cpu as I would upgrade that later.
