Hello community,
I need advice on a laptop purchase. Its down between [company named removed] vs. PC Specialist.
Since they are both clevo resellers and have almost identical models i wonder who builds the better laptops and has the better cooling.
I want to buy a clevo laptop with 980 (desktop) graphics card and after research it comes down to 3 models:
1. Octane II Pro £1969
2. [company named removed] U716 £2238
3. [company named removed] U726 £2273
The Octane II Pro and the [company named removed] U716 have the same Clevo chasis and with the same setup (i7 6700 - 16GB - Nvidia GTX 980 - 250GB SSD/2TB HDD) and 2 year pick up & return but Octane costs £1969 while the [company named removed] U716 Laptop costs £2238. The bigger model [company named removed] U726 (identical to the vortex) with the same components costs even more.
Why are the [company named removed] Laptop almost £300 more expensive with the same components?
I read certain reviews on [company named removed] and they all seem to have a quite good cooling solution while running quite silent for so much power.
Where is PC Specialist saving the money to make it that much cheaper?
At the moment i dont know from which seller i should buy my clevo laptop since i could not find many reviews on the 980 Laptops from PC Specialist but heard that [company named removed] has a bad customer service which seems PCS strength.
Any advice would be welcome. Its just too much money to buy without enough info
