Does anyone have a list of the chassis manufacturers for the current crop of PCSpecialist 17" gaming laptops? Ionico and Recoil are both Tongfang I see mentioned, as is the Valeon.

Here's what I have found. Any with ? mean I can't proceed to the "Post to forum" stage that reveals the secret incantation of manufacturer chassis model.

Some of the chassis model numbers will vary if you change the CPU or graphics card, I just picked the default or an available configuration.

* Summary says "Intel Core or AMD Ryzen", but AMD is not an option in the configurator.

If you proceed on a build in the configurator and then post to forum, at the bottom it states what chassis it is.

There was a list drawn up by @Bhuna50 but there will be a couple of newer chassis not mentioned

17.3" RTX 3000 SERIES LAPTOPS AT PCS.

OK - I have done something similar for the 15.6" laptops, so here is the 17.3" version. Was interesting to see that the Defiance price gap between the 15.6 and 17.3 is a huge whopping £1 for the two models and the same price for the third model - yes I did go check the 15.6" to ensure I hadnt...

Turns out I was wrong, Recoil is Clevo. I saw it mentioned in a post somewhere, maybe that was an older iteration of the Recoil brand. Details in first post.

@PhilHibbs please note that Tongfang P/N changes given some part soldered in being different.
E.g.
GM7MG0P is the Ionico 17 with RTX3060 GPU, but
GM7MG7P is the Ionico 17 with RTX3070 GPU.

(and GM5xxx is the same but in the 15 inch chassis, but it's out of the scope of this thread).

I see the 17" Elimina has come back ( https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/elimina-ii-17/ ) - does anyone know if this is still Clevo? It's unclear if this is exactly the same but with newer Intel, or a newer model - given PCS's habit of reusing the same brand name for both Clevo and Tongfang, it seems worth double checking!

ETA: Found it myself, using the post-to-forum method got me:

Clevo NH77HPQ (6GB RTX-3060, i7-11800H, 144Hz N7)
Clevo NH77HKQ (4GB RTX-3050 Ti, i7-11800H, 144Hz N7)
Clevo NH77HJQ (4GB RTX-3050, i7-11800H, 144Hz N7)

I've added a few more stats: number of SATA and M.2 slots, and number of USB ports (Thunderbolt, USB-C, USB 3.2, USB 2.0)

you'll find the 17" recoil (from tongfang) in the 15" laptop section of the website
(i reported this "problem" to pcs with the tchat, but they did not modified it yet)

and do you think you can add the 16" elimina pro from clevo here ?
