Sager NP 9850/ Clevo M980NU Gameplay and Benchmarks

EDIT: New video of NFS Shift gameplay cinematics at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-4G-iEYgpg
This is my video review of the Sager NP9850(built on the Clevo M980NU).
My main complaints are driver issues, which are to be expected with a laptop that was just released. In two months, I've had 2 blue screens. The drivers that come with the laptop cause constant crashes and you need to update the drivers on Nvidias site. Hotkeys are not functioning. After Win7 loads, the hotkey program immediately crashes so I have disabled them for now.

If you have any questions or want to request another video just send me a message.
And to those who will call me "stupid" for spending so much on a laptop, I cannot buy a desktop due to the fact that I will be moving from country to country very often for awhile so my only option is a laptop.

alot of noise from comp

[Darkray16]

@lumpyman123456789 it's mostly because of the camera.

[john0022]

Darkray16, I'm thinking about buying a sager computer and I wanted to ask you whether you had any problems with the computer and how is the reliability?

[Darkray16]

@john0022 its still going as good as it was the first day, though the fan is running at max speed more than usual. but I think that has more to do with me not cleaning out the dust 14 months after buying it.

Not complaints at all.

[devonte614]

is this a good 1st gaming pc?

[Darkray16]

@devonte614 if you can afford it yes. Sager laptops run very well and I haven't had any problems so far. It has a ton of raw power, so if all you'll be running is Sim City and WoW, then it's overkill.

HELLO.I have 3 questions.

Do you recommend buying this notebook? Is this beast still working? and the last question...if you ever asked RMA from Sager,did they respond properly and did they cover everything according to warranty?Thanks

[NDogg15]

I want to make sweet love to that laptop.
