Looking to order by end of August


1. What Clevo build is the Enigma based on (Just trying to see if there are any more photos out there, that have a clearer view of the keyboard and surround)
2. With regards the wireless options Lan or Killer is there much or any difference between the two
3. Questions for PCS can a slot loading Drive drive still be sourced for the Enigma III, and if so at what cost (approx). Assuming this can be done how do I go about adding a Slot Loading Drive to my order.

Cheers

1. The Enigma III is based on the Compal PBL21 chassis.

2. There's not a huge difference, but worth considering for avid gamers who don't want their internet connection slowing down by other applications that consume bandwidth (the Killer blocks access to other programs to dedicate the internet to your game).

3. At present we cannot source slot sloding drivers - they are approximately £20 - £30 more expensive than the tray loading drives.

We don't supply wireless Killer cards for desktop PCs and it will only benefit the PC that it is installed in.

Unfortunately not. Do you need Bluetooth though? Most customers only use Bluetooth occasionally to connect their phones, for example.

Hi PCS can the slot load dvd be sourced for the 15.6" Optimus II, happy to pay the additional cost as detailed above

Fantastic that PCS,

I've checked out the link is there any one Drive you would prefer me to order or indeed recommend ?

Also i'm guessing i'd just order the laptop/chassis without any Drive ?

Yes - order without a drive - you might need to call us to have the order manually amended because our configurator won't let you order a laptop with a blank hole...

Any model will suffice as long as it's a slim SATA 12.7mm drive.
