Hi, i will buy with desktop pc this laptop for gaming and i have 4 questions:

why others gaming laptop(for example m15x alienware) have 150w power supply and this only 120w?

example
Intel® Core™i7 Mobile Processor Extreme Edition i7-940XM (2.13GHz) 8MB Cache
8GB SAMSUNG 1333MHz SODIMM DDR3 MEMORY (2 x 4GB)
nVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 460M - 1.5GB GDDR5 Video RAM - DirectX® 11
60GB OCZ VERTEX 2 SATA II 2.5" SSD (upto 285MB/sR | 275MB/sW)
320GB WD SCORPIO BLACK WD3200BEKT, SATA 3 Gb/s, 16MB CACHE (7200 rpm)

120w it`s enough for these components?
Because I would not want to insufficient power components not working 100%


the cooling system is enough for these components ?

Where can I find bios updates ?


thanks in advance for the answer and sorry for my bad enlgish

You don't need to worry about the power cables supplied with PCSpecialist laptops, they have been tested to ensure that they can provide enough power to the laptop under heavy stress. The cooling will be sufficient as long as you keep the laptop on a hard surface, don't put it on a fluffy pillow or something that will block the vents, the BIOS updates will be available from the manufacturers website.

Well an SSD will be much quicker, quieter, lighter and use less power but it is a lot more expensive. While it will load up games faster it won't make a difference in terms of performance so it's not really necessary but it is very nice.
