Today I received my Sager 8173-S. Upgraded to the I7 6820HK and added the killer wifi.
I purchased this laptop because I'm on the go and don't spend as much time home anymore.
Spent $1799 on it.
Did I do good or am I a fucking retard?

Sager = Clevo = Chink shit. It may work for a while, but it may break at any moment as well.
My story:
> Be teacher
> Live in a cold country, -20 to -30 F at winter is OK
> Take my Clevo laptop at work every morning
> Not too far, 10-15 minutes at foot, so I don't drive
> After 2 or 3 winter months it stops working in the middle of the day
> I disassemble it
> Metal power connector latch falls apart literally the second I touch it, didn't even have to pull it or anything
> Can't turn it on
> Bought a cheap Lenovo Ideapad after a month, still works perfectly, 3 year old now.

I did a lot of research before I made my purchase and read a lot of positive stories about people with them for 3+ years.

I accessed it's innards this afternoon to install my m.2 and additional HDD and the build quality seemed rather nice, despite it weighing a lot. I went with the 17 over the 15 because it's going to be my main machine for a bit and my vision isn't the best.

I should add too I'm going to use this machine for school, vms, gaymen, and making dank memes in Photoshop.

Welcome home, Bob.

It does have a hybrid mode in BIOS to extend battery.

Nope.

Irrelevant, I use my own SSD+HDD and don't rely on preinstalled junk.

Godspeed to you, then.

OP here. I've owned a T530 & T550. Both were great machines. I would have kept my T550 but i needed something more powerful for my classes.

>>57551239
This is actually a nice fucking deal, last time I checked these kind of laptops they would reach the 3k mark.

Maybe next year I'll get one.
>>
>>57551405
I'm sure they'll drop in price. If you don't mind a 1060 card you can pick them up in the $1400 area.
>>
>>57551412
Nah, I'm waiting a year because I want the HBM2 equivalent in a laptop.
I can afford that easily, I just am in the opinion that's a waste of money going over 2k
>>
>>57551239
You FUCKED up. Return it now.

>>57551239
>Bought a Sager
>Didn't buy it from Sager

You fucked up bad
>>
>>57551239
Only thing you fucked up on is choosing Killer NIC over Intel.
>>
>>57551239
You did good except for the killer WiFi. Shit is kyfe. Welcome to the Clevo club though.
>>
>>57551294

>This one very specific laptop had issues, therefore everything the brand makes is shit

Meanwhile I have a Clevo for 4 years now running like a champ. What's your excuse?

Also
>chink laptops are shit
>proceeds to buy a chink laptop
>>
>>57552218
I bought a Sager from Xoticpc like 6 years ago
I'm using it right now.
I haven't done anything to it other than recently have formatted the hard drive because I don't play games on it anymore and just use it to browse the web and watch streams and Netflix.

Clevos had always been pretty cheap. Paid 1150€ for mine, i7-3610qm and 670m, also helped that I already had ram and hard drives laying around, so I ordered it without them. At the time and equivalent Asus G55 would go for 2k€+
