XMG claims this to be the fastest gaming laptop but with its size and power requirements should this be even considered a laptop anymore??

Today when I walked into my economics class I saw something I dread every time I close my eyes. Someone had brought their XMG Ultra 17 to class. The Forklift he used to bring it was still running idle at the back. I started sweating as I sat down and gazed over at the 700lb beast that was his laptop. He had already reinforced his desk with steel support beams and was in the process of finding an outlet for a power cable thicker than Amy Schumer's thigh. I start shaking. I keep telling myself I'm going to be alright and that there's nothing to worry about. He somehow finds a fucking outlet. Tears are running down my cheeks as I send my last texts to my family saying I love them. The teacher starts the lecture, and the student turns his laptop on. The colored lights on his RGB Backlit keyboard flare to life like a nuclear flash, and a deep humming fills my ears and shakes my very soul. The entire city power grid goes dark. The classroom begins to shake as the massive fans begin to spin. In mere seconds my world has gone from vibrant life, to a dark, earth shattering void where my body is getting torn apart by the 150mph gale force winds and the 500 decibel groan of the cooling fans. As my body finally surrenders, I weep, as my school and my city go under. I fucking hate gaming laptops.

@@aliefr2984 Tons of. Diablo 1 for example came out in late 1996, and was already 810 megabytes in size, and then there's the behemoths like Final Fantasy 7 and 8 with 3-4 CDs worth of data. One thing to note is that only truly few games yet REQUIRED a full installation on the user's hard-disk at that point. Many games instead opted to do a basic bare minimum installation of some few dozen megs, where as all the heavy data was played from the CD. Some later games started providing multiple install-size options (ie. Daggerfall's largest was 500 mb) , reducing or even outright removing the need of CDs in case of the larger install sizes.

This would be amazing for a music producer!! They could use it in their room for gaming on a big monitor, with the lid closed (assuming the cooling allows for this) and then bring it to the studio or a gig and have it run around 32 live audio inputs being processed (with after effects applied) all at once, and have no issues at all. Audio is so data heavy too, so the massive storage would make it easy to not have to swap external drives around all the time. This is like a dream laptop omg. It is me, I am the music producer who wants this laptop! The fact that it is so loud would possibly make it hard to record audio in a bedroom though.

My Dell XPS M1730 Laptop from Years ago had upgradable Dual SLI (8700M GT’s and I think there were 8800’s you could get that weren’t released widely IIRC, but still not that hard to get). It had the separate AGEIA PhysX Accelerator Card too. It all still in great shape, except the Battery won’t hold a Charge. Then I bought an Aurora R4 Desktop and a M13 R3 Laptop together. I’m just returning to Windows, waiting for my M15 R3 after living in Apple Land for too long.

It's a German keyboard style thing - the Caps Lock is upside-down sign (I guess because they put Shift facing up and wanted to avoid letters for that key). Also, all shift+ keys or upper/ alternate keys are placed at the bottom (e.g. @ sits below 2). My ROCCAT keyboard has a similar layout.

My Alienware 17r5 came with 2 full-size M.2 slots, an odd one about the size of a large postage stamp, and a 2.5" drive bay. It came with a 256GB M.2 and a 1TB hard drive. I replaced the hard drive with a 2TB SSD, replaced the one M.2 with a 2TB one, added another 2TB one, and put a 256GB one in the small bay. Thus, I have a bit over 6TB of space. Got a boot drive that also holds programs, a data drive, a game drive which is almost full, and a little spare space. I really like the twin coffee warmers on the sides, it really keeps the teacup warm. Also, headphones are needed when it's under load. I got it refurbished for about $2700, but then put in about $700 of upgrades, plus another $300 for the graphics accelerator and another $300 for the 2060. Turns out, a 2060 with 6GB has almost identical performance to the built-in 1080Ti with 8GB, other than the ray tracing. The Graphics Accelerator makes for a nice dock, but I could have used the USB-C port for that for under $100. Even with the new 30XX cards coming out, the Ultra 17 is going to shine for years to come. 8TB should be good for about 10 AAA games, or the core Microsoft Flight Simulator plus a light operating system.

@curvingfyre6810 3 года назад

Always had a soft spot for this style of rig. My first real machine in 2014 was the 2014 equivalent. Got it as a gift, and hell, for a mediocre but serviceable machine, it still holds up, aside from the graphics card. Processor is good, rams good, storage is good, the only problem is running a graphics card.
