Amazon is price matching.

Looking to buy an AMD 6790, since this is one of my first posts, I'll pay first / do what is needed of me to make a good transaction. I'm around Chicago if anyone local has one. Thanks!

I have been dying to do a review on hardware. This looks like a good piece of kit to start.

I made a mistake on my post. I didn't realize this comes with a bigger battery than the version I got. If so this WILL last close to as long as they are claiming on the website.

I leave my profile on quiet office with a very low processor speed and the screen brightness in the 30%s. I normally get anywhere from 5 to 7 hours of battery life on strong wifi signal and these settings. I've never gotten the 9+ battery life on my laptop but I could be doing something wrong :)

I am typing this from that very laptop. It is awesome...some faults though: 1. Keyboard bends slightly when typing (mine was replaced with metal) 2. The lcd screen is miserable. 3. The laptop can get hot when the discrete graphics are on. It is a great laptop and I would buy again even...

Corsair is the first company that I used for RAM in my first computer build and will continue to be my memory of choice!

I have the UL30VT and it is amazing. I am a constant web surfer so I don't get the full 12 hours but it does everything I need, is light, and lasts forever. It is everything I thought when I was buying it and more.

so far so good with the UL30VT, great build quality, great battery life (between 6-10 hours of normal web browsing) and overall great laptop. I'm very impressed and would buy it again. love it.

I just got it (amazon prime free trial thank you) I haven't fired it up yet but when I do I'll post my findings...will be a few days until I have it fully set up how I want...(newborn boy at home and not a lot of time to dedicate :) )

just bought the ul30vt...Should be arriving tomorrow...I'm pumped, has all the features I want!

Quadro FX 5800, the workstation card, not the desktop card from a few years back.

doesn't matter which company, both have great performance...Figure out how much your budget is and then select that card or cards in that price range. if you have a 30 inch screen will you be playing games at that full resolution or just have that high of a resolution for the desktop and play...

i did use driver cleaner and the drives never get the chance to get a drive letter, they show up but get errors when I try to do anything to them in Disk Management.
