    PCSPECIALIST Gaming Laptop Sanity Check

    Yea im leaning onto this option to either see what the iconio is like or if anything new comes out. Don't suppose you've heard anything on Clevo ones of similar specs being released?

    Thanks a lot i'll have a look into that! On the battery I've always figured it was accepted that gaming laptops are more just moving from plug in to plug with the occasional ability to watch TV or work on battery for a couple hours. Would never expect to play anything beyond Catan on battery.
