Lenovo Y510p can't handle well the heat generated by the SLI GPUs
The Y50 is great BUT people are experiencing multiples issues with it, probably from the first units and they will fix it later. If you were to buy it avoid getting it directly from Lenovo and try others renown sellers like Xotic ( http

About cyberpower I cant really say much, if the price is right and you hear good things about their tech support why not

Thanks. Yeah ive heard about heat problems on the y510p... Thanks for telling me about buying the y50 elsewhere, ill do that. What do u think about the Cyberpower Laptops? Waste of time?
Im posting from mobile so sorry for Bad grammar.

HusseinH :

I really can't say much about Cyberpower. Their Xplorer laptops are a rebrand from Clevo's ( XPLORER X7-7500 = Clevo P177SM-A), which isnt a bad thing, Clevos are reliable and cheap.

As for the Fangbook I don't know anything, didnt find a review.

Okay. I also found some good value laptops on Xotic PC, the Sager ones. They seem to have a similar chassis to the Cyberpower laptops, or some anyway. They're also much cheaper than Lenovo and therefore I can get significantly better hardware in them, meaning of course better performance.
There is also a Gygabyte laptop at 70% off, but it has an older 700 series GPU...I can't actually remember which one it is at the moment... Anyway, I will have to go busking and earn some extra pocket money to buy any of these laptops. I'm about a hundred pounds short on cash!

HusseinH :

The Gigabyte is just $70 bucks off, not 70% =P
They are indeed the same chassis, from Clevo. It's a good brand, you often hear it's "the best bang for the buck". The laptops are simple looking (nothing fancy, nothing "gamer"), and the build quality is okay. During my searches for a laptop I considered one, Sager owners are happy with it and usually buy it again.
