Can you give a model number and I can look around

My laptop (asus g73sw) keeps breaking and along with several other issues(it\'s too big and has a very short 1h30m battery life) I\'ve decided to start looking for suggestion. My hopes for a laptop: Core i5 (2nd or 3rd gen) or comparable amd chip - the i7 is just too much and very power hungry A dedicated card (I prefer nVidia but AMD is good as well) that could run most games well at medium or better settings 6 gb of ram (4 at min with room to upgrade) HDD doesnt matter as I have a spare 750gb 7200rpm to use Good battery life 6h would be awesome but 4h is good Size and weight no larger than 16inch display and no more than 7 pounds EDIT: Oh and a backlit keyboard is a plus Thanks in advance

Same here cpu only but I went with the rasa rs240 kit, granted I did mess up my 580 but thats because I didnt leak check like an idiot (MSI fixed it for free though 8))

Well I did liquid in my first build make sure you leak test a lot during the first few days and that you are careful with it

Its pretty simple to do it yourself and hard to mess up(unless you do water cooling like me) every part only fits in one way and if you look on youtube or newegg there are a ton of people that post videos of them doing it themselves. Only thing you can do to really messup on a new computer is static discharge or putting too much pressure on a part. if you leave cables disconnected or a heatsink off it will alert you or wont turn so just take it slow when I did mine I forgot to plug in my front panel connectors and it took a minute to figure out why I couldnt start it with the main power button but the diagnostic card would start it

Yeah i agree with that I have a 750 7200rpm in my laptop its fast but the ssd in my desktop kicks but its 25 seconds - the splash screen to boot up. it you start to get bogged down on a hard drive try defragging

Great idea I love my desktop to death I\'d recommend building your own as its cheaper, if you have the time to pick the parts out. My first build took me 2 or 3 hours to actually build with me not having the knowledge to do such For laptop upgrades if you are running a 5400 rpm hdd try to get a 7000rpm or a solid state drive usually youll get great improvements with just that much

Its probably more good than bad but tons of people love theirs im probably just unlucky and in general I hate tech support so (only good experience with tech support was MSI but I may or may not of caused that one, I didnt leak check my water cooling completely and well a week latter one drop fell onto my gpu and fried it) But in all seriousness this thing ways a ton I carted mine with me around the city for 7 or 8 hours yesterday it sucks no matter what in that respect, the other issue I had was trying to find a bag for something this big

Well I have the g73sw(the model before that one was realeased) and it runs ksp fairly well but dont get it for the following reasons 1) Asus support sucks (I don\'t know how many times I\'ve had to call but seriously the tech support people are idiots, ( the best example of such is the motherboard in my desktop went bad called and gave the S/N they said it was wrong I had to call back 4 more times before just cussing one of the guys out and talking to the manager which as it turns out my S/N was correct) 1 continued) Their parts are unreliable( My laptop is now 2 months out of warrenty and heres a list of what has went bad ( battery, charger, touchpad, 2 keyboards, the hard drive and the charge plug that is on the mother board) and parts to go bad in my 1 year old desktop (Motherboard, cd drive, and 2 graphics cards) 2) Its too big IMO to carry around ( I have to walk to class with over 10 pounds of laptop + charger) and then add books on top 3) If I were to buy again I would go with an i5 and having Optimus technology for battery life and smaller size 15.6in Im not trying to slam asus but the issues have convinced me that I shouldnt trust them if you do buy it then I hope your experiance is better than mine. Its a solid laptop if everything stays working and you are planning to keep it at home on a deskl.

Glad to help

I know there are two such mods the nav-lights mod http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=8535.0 and the bigtrak mod http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=9404.0 I cant view the video so this is the best I can do

On my second year of ROTC not an officer yet but I will be probably commissioned December 2015

Best of luck to ya and enjoy your time in the fleet from talking to friends Navy boot camp wasn\'t too bad but I chose ROTC instead so no first hand info on it

I just read 650 and hes even scarier imo than 173

Scp-173 didn\'t really scare me and then I played the game and now I\'m terrifed of it

I just played scp containment breach and it scared the crap outta me

This looks so awesome Keep up the great work 8)
