Hi guys, I've had my laptop - a 17.3" Vortex III - from PC Specialist for two years this month and am still really happy with the performance it provides me. However, over the past two years, I've accrued a lot of rubbish on the hard drives, and feel like it's time for a Spring clean. What I'd...

I am planning on housing a mini PC on my TV stand, beneath my TV and PS4, and using my TV as my gaming display instead of my current laptop. My needs are simple: I want something that will perform as well as my current gaming machine, but that will sit easily on one of my TV stand shelves which...

I bought a well-specced Vortex III late in April (see my signature for details). What I need to know is whether there is any GPU and/or CPU upgrade potential from this particular chassis, i.e. could I have a 780m GPU or 4th generation Intel CPU installed at some point?

After many months (possibly years) being tempted by PC Specialist's offerings, I have finally taken the plunge and ordered my very first PC Specialist product, a 17.3" Vortex III. Laptop Specification Chassis & Display Vortex Series: 17.3" Matte Full HD LED Widescreen (1920x1080) Processor...

I play a lot of World of Warcraft, and move around quite a lot, so a desktop isn't a possibility for me. I am looking for a laptop that will run WoW on maximum/ultra settings and allow me to record my gameplay using FRAPS, or the like. It would also be a huge bonus if I could do the same when...

I've been toying with the idea of getting a new laptop for a while. I play a lot of World of Warcraft, and would play more Diablo III, Starcraft II, and plenty of other things if my laptop could actually cope! I was initially looking at forking out ~£1300 for a 17" Vortex, but after much...

I am very close to ordering a 17.3" Vortex III, but I can't quite make my mind up on the spec. What I really need to know is whether the graphics card is upgradeable. I am looking at getting the Nvidia 670M instead of the AMD 7970M as it is £153 cheaper, but will provide me with the performance...

I am looking at replacing my current laptop, a five year old Acer 7720g (Intel Core Duo @ 2.00GHz, 4GB RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon 2300 HD). I play a lot of World of Warcraft, and my current laptop is holding me back performance wise. I would ideally like a laptop that can run World of Warcraft on...
