Hi there


EVGA have entered the flagship Gaming Laptop sector with their hugely impressive SC17. I have one myself and was deeply impressed when I enabled SC mode the CPU was running between 3800-3900MHz in benchmarks and games. The GPU had a substantial overclock and even the memory was running at a sweet 3000MHz.

On a laptop this level of performance is mighty impressive and even though the chassis gets toasty after hours of benchmark looping the GPU remained under 75c and showed little to no throttling.

The overall build quality reminds me of the Razor laptop as well with no keyboard flex and what feels like a solid metal chassis. It is a great bit of kit and I can see it selling well especially with EVGA's UK RMA support team also handling after care along with OcUK. :)

Introducing the first ever laptop that is 100% designed in house by EVGA, the EVGA SC17 Gaming Laptop. This new 4k ready, high performance laptop was meticulously created from the groun dup for the hardcore gamer, performance enthusiast, and even overclocker. No shortcuts here!

It all starts with power, an in house EVGA designed power supply with a new unique form factor helps delivery up to 240 watts of power when needed, without compromising battery life.

An Intel Core i7 6820HK CPU that is unlocked and capable of being overclocked to 3800MHz and beyond, combined with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M, also capable of being overclocked, lets you get the performance you always wanted from a gaming laptop.

Did we mention that the EVGA SC17 Gaming Laptop is built for overclocking?

A sleek design rounds out the package with a full unibody chassis, and slim design that is under 1.05" at its thickest point. This is just the beginning. USB 3.1 Type C, excellent sound with an integrated subwoofer, and a beautiful 4K 17" display is what you get when you cross performance with art.

The bad news is we only have 10 of these laptops for April/May and they could sell out fast.
 
Who looking for high performance gaming does it on a heavy, hot £2400 laptop? I can build a desktop with a 4k monitor for £500 less and it will kill this laptop in games.


No idea but we sold 50 units last week of the Asus 980M £2000 laptop, these high-end laptops sell, infact they sell extremely well. :)
 
Gibbo,
Do you have any pictures of the actual unit. The pictures/videos show what looks like an american style keyboard (by this I mean a "single row" enter key, with the pipe/backslash above the enter.).
