    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST 15.6" Cosmos IX - Excellent value

    Haven't notices any crashes due to power, had it both plugged in and on battery while I played DIRT and there were no issues at all. Also has the benefit of charging pretty quick when you're all out of juice :)

    WiFi performance is excellent, so is the ethernet. I haven't used it in direct sunlight yet but I rate the screen, the brightness is pretty average when cranked. Don't find myself any more than half brightness in doors.

    Yes indeed it is for what I've used it for so far. One important thing to note is the fans can ramp up slightly when you use and charge due to the extra heat. Doesn't always but has for me

    Had a go with Dirt Rally this afternoon just for you :) Yes fans were very loud but temps stayed low so I guess you could do some tuning :)

    Desktop and websurfing you'll be fine! They're totally off or they were on so quiet I couldn't hear them. Same goes for Netflix and YouTube too just make sure you've got good airflow all round etc like you normally would. In the hotter weather we've been having I've noticed them more in a couple...

    Yeah that was pretty impressive to me when I first unboxed it, the sheer amount of copper under that chassis is impressive. Also I'll have to concur about the drivers etc etc, I just guess that it assumes worst case scenario until all the updated drivers are installed a bit like a car when a...

    Coming from a Surface Laptop 2, the bar was set pretty high in terms of looks and efficiency, but this laptop delivered far better than I could've imagined. The laptop, whilst being thicker, is still managable in my backpack and remains fairly light compared to other systems with the same specs...
