        This is not as cheap as the last deal where you could get it for $750. Kinda disappointing really.

        As feedback, the terms of your voucher are deceptive to me, when I checked there was no where to find out which models it applied to. The voucher is accepted at checkout for the w110er. Imagine the disappointmet if you customer was expecting the 240gb ssd.

        Your comment in the other thread about the voucher was also not very clear on which models it applied to.

        All a bit disappointing and not up to the high standards you have demonstrated elsewhere in this thread.

      Yes we had an unacceptable delay on this model due to high demand at the factory. We have received the notebooks and are nearly complete with the orders.

      Unfortunately it was a pre-order to begin with which made the lead time long to begin with, now it is also overdue.

      As this model is in stock the lead time is only around 15 business days approximately.

          Yes, I agree if it's just pre-order and release is delayed. That is acceptable because it's out of the re-seller's control.
          But Jack's reply was high demand at the factory. Which indicates the vendor or the factory did not manage their order carefully?

    From a gaming and heat perspective, is the Horize P150SM better than Horize W355SS?
    P150SM is about $300 more, but you get a GTX 870m instead of GTX 860m.

    Thanks.

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 11/06/2014 - 18:14

      Welcome.

      The P150SM is absolutely more designed for gaming. It runs an independent fan for the CPU and another for the GPU. The heatsinks are very large also.

      The other added advantage is that the P150SM can have it's graphics upgraded later. We still have customers that had one of the earlier models from 3 years ago still buying graphics card upgrades instead of a whole new machine. It works out well because CPU power isn't that much better than the old one.

      Under high load. Because of the way our product options work on the site every time you open a new model it has to generate new attributes. So if we have more than 1000 people on the site it pretty much kills our server. And it's a fast dedicated machine. The more you know.

    I have the Ivy Bridge version of this and can vouch for the quality of the laptop. My experience with the 8 cell battery would be unless you are doing some serious power saving you're more likely to get 3-4 hours (although Haswell will improve this somewhat).

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 11/06/2014 - 18:37

      Yes, i'd say you are spot on there. I use the Ivy Bridge version also and get maybe 5 hours watching a DVD or something. To get it further than this you would have to be very conservative with power.

      It would be fine for a good 5 hours or so as long as you aren't doing anything too intensive. If you are just taking notes I would power down the wireless and the screen brightness (it's a very bright panel anyway) and you could get 6 hours. Alternatively get a spare battery.

      no laptop is okay for 4k gaming, older game doesnt support 4k and you wont enjoy the benefit of 4k for later games on a laptop. i'd say even a high end desktop is struggling with 4k gaming, you want more pixels and you lower other settings to make it playable. that just give you a more clear image of poor details. better wait for a 4k ready gaming console in future.

          In terms of PassMark, i7-4500U vs i5-4330M — the mobile i5 seems to be faster than the ULV i7, so in theory this would be faster than Toshiba Kira.

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 12/06/2014 - 13:12

      Sure light bleed can be an issue on some of the IPS panels. We try and watch out for that when running our pixel tests and we will replace the panel if the bleeding is bad. Yes absolutely I use my model to watch movies on and it's perfect. ( I have the older model).

      • spanks on 13/06/2014 - 10:08

        Thanks for the info, good to hear about your quality control. If you don't mind, I have a couple more questions:
        How loud is the fan during movies/browsing?
        What's the quality like on the keyboard/touchpad? I'm a bit worried about this aspect, I've read that they might not be the greatest.

        • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 13/06/2014 - 10:21

          The fan for movies and browsing shouldn't be heard, or barely. As this doesn't have a discrete GPU it handles noise much better.

          The keyboards and touchpad are fine. I wouldn't rate it as the best available, but still good.

        • spanks on 13/06/2014 - 13:53

          Thanks again, really appreciate your replies. Some final questions if you're still around:
          How's the motion clarity of the screen? Do movies play completely smoothly, or is there some ghosting? Sounds like this could be a weakness of IPS tech.
          And does the matte finish affect the richness/depth of the color a lot, or does the power of IPS balance that out?

      • furyou on 24/06/2014 - 09:05
