Thanks for the help guys, I've placed the order. I retained the core components from the initial suggestion and avoided dialling them back. I even stayed with the suggested case, it's a bit pricier but looks nice. It should arrive around the start of my next week of booked holiday, which'll be...

Understood, I'm with ya now, I didn't realise the top of the line GPU's had grown that power hungry. Kinda sounds like GPU industry steered away from Crossfire/SLI configurations. I hear ya, buy as far ahead as you can to stay relevant for longer. Like my previous error of ignorance, I didn't...

Cheers for the response, you've gone a bit out of my comfort zone, haha, but I will roll with it, I need to be open minded since I'm asking for help. I've always been an Nvidia guy (FX5600, 7950GT, GTX275, GTX760 and the 1080TI is my history), I'm familiar with their stuff, so switching to the...

Hey folks, Normally I don't panic about Heat issues (It's a gaming laptop, it's going to heat up), but this was quite unusual and a first for me with this unit. I turned my Optimus VI on about 20 minutes ago, and realised after a while it was continuously ramping up-and-down Fans to help...

Hey guys, posting a review here of my first ever PCSpecialist order; the 15.6" Optimus VI Laptop. Also angling for the free memory stick, nice incentive guys :P I remember looking through the Forums when investigating this particular model and I don't recall seeing many threads for it, so here...
