If you could report back after you've got it that would be helpful. I think I'm tempted by this model.

Does Recoil 16" have the clicky mechanical keyboard ?

If you have the Recoil 16", does it have a clicky mechanical keyboard ?

I don't think budget is going to be the limiting factor but if you need a figure then I'll say £4000. If you came up with something more than £4000 then I'd raise my eyebrows but it wouldn't necessarily be a barrier to purchase. I think other factors that are important to me will constraint the...

I hear your comments re 990. On my current laptop I have 2TB 970 pro - and am currently at around 1.25Tb - at current rates of increase I will surpass 1.5TB within the next year or so (I tend to consider anything above 75% usage as 'full' and time to upgrade). I guess from your comments a...

I'm after a laptop... I'm after a 15-16" laptop... if you find me an £8000 laptop here at pcspecialist that fits that bill I'd like to hear. :) I'm in the meantime any feedback on my spec ?

I don't have a budget as such. I can pay what I need to pay for what I need. How long for the latest cpu/gpu do you reckon ? Are there alternative chasis I should look at ? Lafite Pro ? I'm thinking not.

Hi, What do you reckon ? This will be used mostly for work, gaming and photography. Needs to be light, thin, portable and multi-purpose with lots of headroom for future growth. This will be an upgrade from a Vyper which is not available now - that's been good. I had a Recoil that was a...

ANY thoughts on this spec.... which should I be considering instead ??? Wanting 15.6" lightweight but powerful Gaming is World of Warships/Tanks, COD, etc Want lots of headroom for future use... Chassis & Display Vyper Series: 15.6" Matte Full HD 144Hz 72% NTSC LED Widescreen (1920x1080)...

I have a Vortex with the internal 9 in 1 card reader. I have a SDXC 64Gb Class 4 card which works fine. And a SDXC 64Gb Class 10 card which doesn't. It looks as if the Class 10 card (80mb/s) isn't being recognised. Anyone got any ideas of the maximum that will work on this PC ?

When I try to awake from hibernation I get a bios message saying "Your system's firmware did not preserve the system memory map across the hibernation transition.... kindly check for a firmware update with your system vendor".... (see attached pic)... Then if I continue the resume I get...

Hi, Just got a Vortex IV 15.6"... I ordered it with a SDD drive and a 2nd/3rd HDD HARD DRIVE OPTICAL BAY CADDY... My question is how do I get access to the caddy ? It has what looks like a DVD bay but is I assume a blank cover for the caddy bay. There is what looks like a DVD eject button...

What do you reckon to this spec ? Wasn't sure about the SSD/drive caddy option - and wondering whether heat is likely to be an issue. I'm unlikely to be needing sound system and can use the digital output to drive ext sound system if necessary... Am happy with Win7 but not convinced about...
