Hi, I have taken delivery of my Vortex 3 laptop and cannot see any options to enable hardware virtualization in the BIOS. I am a developer and will be using the laptop with Oracle VirtualBox and need the vt-x feature enabled in the BIOS. Running the HWiNFO64 tool shows that the CPU does...

Just taken delivery of a Vortex III tody but I don't see the Intel 80gb mSATA SSD. It doesn't show up in device manager and I am concerned that PCS may have forgotten to put it in. Can anyone help?

This is probably a stupid question, but if I amend my order such that it reduces the amount I have paid will PCS refund the difference?

I was just about to pull the trigger on a Vortex III 17" laptop and got to the end of the order page and I couldn't see anywhere to enter a different delivery address. Is it possible to deliver to a work address as there is no way I can take the time off work to sit at home waiting for the...

I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this, but is it possible to unplug the stock NVIDIA GTX 670M graphics card in the Vortex III 17" and replace it with a Quadro FX3800M card (from eBay)? I am considering purchasing this laptop at some point, but I am unsure if the 675M card will...

If I select the 80GB Intel 310 mSATA SSD and a normal HDD in the configurator does that mean the O/S will be installed to the mSATA by default?

I am planning on ordering this shortly: Chassis & Display Vortex Series:17.3" Matte Full HD LED Widescreen (1920x1080) (£79) Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Mobile Processor i7-3720QM (2.60GHz) 6MB Memory (RAM) 16GB SAMSUNG 1600MHz SODIMM DDR3 MEMORY (4 x 4GB) Graphics Card NVIDIA®...

I have just been to PWN PCS website and they offer the Clevo P150EM with 30/60/120 GB mSATA drives. Would PCS be offering this as an option via the configurator (the Intel SRT cache drive isn't the same as a proper mSATA SSD)? Ideally I'd want the 15.6" form factor for portability, but need an...

Once Ivy Bridge is released (hopefully tomorrow, on the 23rd April) I am considering ordered a Vortex III (17.3 or 15.6) chassis with the GTX675m option. Can I upgrade to the Kepler GTX680m once nVidia release it? Is the GPU soldered to the motherboard, or can it be easily replaced?

I am wondering why there is a £170 price difference between these two chassis, even though they're the same size (17.3"). Is this because the Clevo (Vortex) chassis offers a better build quality than the Skyfire (MSI) ? Also, are the 1920 x 1080 LED screens the same in both models?

What model is the Vortex III 17.3 72% matte screen? Is it an AUO panel?
