My wife is playing Tome Raider the Lenovo Y500SLI and it's truly a great machine. It's fairly light and small for having such great performance. It makes my 7970m m17x look really oversized.

I absolutely love love my m17x r3 upgraded 7970m & m18x r2 7970m CFX. Being able to open up your laptop/repaste yourself under warranty is nice. Using standard mxm3.0 cards and being able to upgrade just makes it even nicer. I feel like there's some control to the laptop. I really enjoyed how...

I have an idea of where this is going.

Honestly, Have you seen a more rice inspired laptop? I think not. We put the laptops away for the sake of cleanliness and lack of clutter.

My wife and I have a traditional japanese style home (floor tables, floor chairs, tatami mat floors, shrines, traditional sliding paper doors, etc) When I told her that a desktop was 1,000 usd less for the same amount of gaming power...she got pretty angry at me for suggesting a computer...

$2000+ ASUS UX51VZ-XH71 650m in an ULTRABOOK! Gaming capable, ULTRA Showy. Otherwise an m18x with two 680m in sli. $1500-$1999. Sager NP9150 or m17x r4 680m $1000-$1499 MSI 16F3 - 675m 1,100 Sub-$1000 Sager NP6165 -650m $823.53

I loved every single second of this game, especially all the cut scenes which I thought were insanely well done. I usually hate cut scenes. Do I wish the AI was smarter? Yes. Do I wish there was a sexy Lisa scene at the end? Yes. Would I play it through again? Yes.

ofcourse, the iPad/iPhone can't do any of the pages I mentioned. I packaged a vpn into my iphone's jailbreak to get it to work, but I still need to do it for my wife's ipad. My router is only broadcasting 10Mbps :[, but the wired is doing the correct speed. laptop: killer n-1105, ipad...

This is my speed test from Tokyo -> LA Tokyo-> Palo Alto Tokyo -> NY,NY So I did a tracert and apparently my entry point into the US is in New York as opposed to California? (http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/206.132.169.82) 5ms 5ms 5ms tky.009bf00.IIJ.net (58.138.80.17)...

My seedbox from whatbox.ca. It has 300Mbps up/down and 100MB storage for ftp/remote ui seeding/video streaming & vpn. I've been really happy with them so far, and I keep finding more reasons to keep my service.

so I configured a openvpn on my server, rerouted my traffic though the east coast and with its help 100Mbps(1.5TB upload/month metered) I can load all those websites I couldn't before. I wonder how far that will get me though. I'm going to start looking for a unmetered server(100GB storage) soon.

That same thing happened to me. I ended up flashing to DD-WRT instead. I did this half a year ago or so. I found that bridging only seemed to work for me if both routers were running tomato.

I figured this board would be filled with people who could answer this for me. I have some pretty decent Japanese internet and yet I still have issues loading some american websites like Facebook/Steam/imgur/mangafox/usaa.com I play games like Dota2/Guild Wars2 on west coast servers with...

Yeah, you're completely right, but when I could get a game to work I'd be more likely to finish the game rather then quit after a day. Eyefinity/surround isnt for the normal enthusiast who is angered by poor support. I personally liked when a game had minor issues that needed to be resolved...
