Topic: New 17inch laptop Posted: 13 May 2012 at 5:28pm |
Hello, I am new here, and am looking for a laptop. After looking at every manufacturer I decided to use DS. Mainly because of the great community and the price is very reasonable for a high quality system. Here is the laptop I am looking at....
$1996 Rules of this build are as follows, Wife says it has to stay under 2k It is used for gaming only and to watch online video Questions I have are as follows Is the Diamond thermal necessary? I for some reason need to be convinced to spend that extra 35 bucks Does it void the warranty to install a HD myself? Reason I ask is because with the 2k budget, I would rather buy the 240GB now and add one whenever I need another. I figure 20GB per game, if I have 5 loaded up at a time, i should be fine, I usually delete the game after I tire of it, and usually only play 2 or 3 at any one time. I don’t want a HDD. Thanks for your help! |

Looks great! You don't need the diamond thermal paste, it's just to lower temps. However, for $35, and if your budget allows, it's worth it.
Adding a hard drive does not VOID the warranty. Hope that helps!
