HTWingNut's Sager NP6110 / Clevo W110ER First Look & Review

[WCFire]

HT, would you conclude that you were happy going with the W110ER over the P150EM?

[HTWingNut]

Thats due to the fact that the power saving is enabled in the driver other than the hardware. So when disabled the GPU is running in "idle" speeds instead of "off" speed.

I figured something like that. I'm not used to nVidia GPU's in laptops as I've only used AMD/Radeon as of late. But AMD has something similar, thanks.

Wingnut...come now.

I think you did an excellent job on this video. No fluff...just a good description. I personally love a video where a person wastes no time in ripping off the bottom so I can see the goodies inside.



Two Thumbs Up! and frankly, I want one...not crazy about the power brick, but I could live with it. I'm selling my v131 and buying this. Not joking.

Best Regards,

Nice. I like that v131. Obviously not quite a gaming juggernaut, but still a nice slim little no-nonsense machine.

thanks for the video, it's pretty awesome!

if you plan on doing more in the future, would it be possible for you to do some gameplay videos? just to get an idea of what it looks like?

I have every intent on doing some gaming benchmarks. I think I need to invest in a new camera though.

Is it just me or is there anyone else who finds the 1366X768 resolution terrible for productivity?

1366x768 is not that great for productivity, so you should consider that in your buying decision. For home/school/work, whatever consider an HDMI monitor. Plug in and away you go at whatever resolution you want. I wouldn't consider 1366x768 if you frequently manage tons of windows.

Na, i wouldn't want to go higher on 11".

Right. 1600x900 would be nice, but I'll take a high quality (IPS?) 1366x768 matte screen over 1600x900 any day in an 11.6".

Great job on both the review in the OP and the video HTWing!
Mine shipped yesterday so i should have it this evening or tomorrow. Ill report the temps with the i7-3612QM when ive got it up and running with an ICD repaste .

Yes PLEASE report temps and battery life. That feedback would be so beneficial. In any case I'm waiting on Ivy Bridge dual core. Then I will likely spring for the 3612QM or an i5/i7 dual core if temps and battery life show significant improvement.

Hello. I think I will buy this computer. It s amazing what they do in a small 11" !

Could someone (HeavenCry? :-)) who have the computer with i7-3612QM make battery test ?

In France this model is not sell with i7-3610QM but only with 3612. The sellors told me that the 3610 would heat more and the battery life would be worse.
I would like check these information like difference of price between US version with i7-3610 and French version with i7-3612 is quite big.

Thank you.

EDIT: on the officiel site of Clevo : CLEVO - Products the I7-3610 is not showed like forecast in the computer...

No the 3610QM is not "officially" supported. But Sager and Clevo builders like Mythlogic have done extensive testing showing it has sufficient cooling.

HT, would you conclude that you were happy going with the W110ER over the P150EM?

I think so. I don't use my computer for gaming that much nowadays. Only for an occasional romp. I absolutely would prefer 13" though any day and will drop this machine in a heartbeat if a Clevo or any other quality brand offers a 13" with similar or better specs than this W110ER, well I'd actually expect it to have 1600x900 and GDDR5 if it's going to sport a larger resolution screen.

Hey HT,can you check if this Clevo has turbo fan? Used to be FN+F1 on other models,maybe this one has too?

Yeah, I'd like to know this too, it would certainly come in handy.

[HTWingNut]

Already checked, and it's usually Fn+1 not Fn+F1. In any case, no unfortunately.

Well done comprehensive review HTWingNut -- appreciate your hard work. Can you please provide the LiteOn PA model number of the 120w ac adapter? Is it - PA-1131-07 or something similar to that family of ac adapters? Looking for generic ones out there. Thanks
