I picked up the new Alienware 13 with the OLED display and the GTX 1060. The laptop is pretty sweet. The OLED display is amazing. The only downside is the weight. Let me know if any of you guys have a question about it.

I just got my hands on a 1080 but I was thinking about leaving 1 of my old 980s in my rig and dedicate it to PhyX. Is that possible? Right now I have both cards installed but only the 1080 is working. The 980 is showing up as a "Microsoft basic graphics adapter". Not sure how to get the Nvidia...
I had no idea that Acer was working on a new variant of the Predator X34. This new monitor is the Acer Predator Z35 and it's using a VA Panel instead of the X34s IPS display. Using VA might help eliminate issues like back light bleed and IPS glow and now the refresh rate goes all the way up to...

I guess my search for a truly portable gaming notebook continues.
Does anyone know what's going on with the Asus Taichi? It came up for per-order on October 12th with a release date of October 27th but that date came and went with no product in sight. Is this ultra book vaporware or the real deal?
