Hello, and welcome to OcUK TV. (Overclockers UK TV)
Today we're going to be looking at one of our in-house built laptops
the OCUK Hardcore Gamer. The model we have here
is the 15.6" screen - you can also get this laptop with a 17.3 inch screen too.
It features a minimalistic design, with soft-touch plastics for a real premium feel.
It also has a full backlit keyboard, and a backlit trackpad.
so when you gaming in the dark or in low light conditions
you can always see where you're pressing.
So let's take a look at some of the internal components of the OCUK Hardcore Gamer laptop.
Well it features a range of the fourth generation Intel Haswell processes
this particular one is outfitted with an Intel Core i7
490MQ, which runs at 2.8GHz - so it can plough through
even the hardiest of applications
and of course games.
It can carry up to a maximum of 16GB of DDR3 RAM.
This one also has the Corsair Vengeance memory fitted.
Storage options, you have two slots - so you can have a SSD
and a hard drive, which is perfect having a quick boot drive for Windows
and all of your games and applications and large storage drive to backup all your important information.
and of course game saves.
As with most premium grade gaming laptops
the OCUK Hardcore Gamer comes with a full complement outputs.
It features a HDMI port, a DisplayPort,
a mini DisplayPort, USB 2.0,
USB 3.0, ESATA - and it even has a DVD drive.
Audio is handled by Creative Sound Blaster X53 so you have crystal-clear surround sound.
So when you deep in the game and you really need to hear where the enemies are coming from... it's got your back.
So now it's time for the part piece of the OCUK Hardcore Gamer; as it's graphics card
it has the AMD HD8970M 4GB graphics card. This is one of the higher end graphics card and delivers
supreme DX11 performance, and if you're so inclined
you can even BitCoin on it - make a bit of money.
So now we're going to take this badboy for a test ride, and put it into it's natural habitat: gaming.
We've been running Tomb Raider (2013) and Hitman: Absolution on this
which runs on high settings completely maxed out.
What you can see here though, is me doing a lap of Grid 2
and winning obviously.
(NO!)
So we decided to benchmark
the OCUK Hardcore Gamer, with the Heaven Benchmark V3. As you can see it's got an average FPS
of 55.4 - and an overall score of 1,396. A minimum FPS of 34.6
and a maximum FPS of 109.8 - impressive figures for gaming laptop.
So after looking at the specs
of the OCUK Hardcore Gamer - you can see it's a real weapon when it comes to mobile gaming
but for those you require a little bit more on-screen real estate
we actually do offer in a 17.3" screen, as mentioned previously.
Now as we build all of the ease in house at OcUK - our expert technicians
actually put uprated thermal compound - to manage the extra heat
from the uprated components. Something that you probably won't find anywhere else.
And of course we have a legendary 24-month warranty
which means, God forbid, anything ever happens to your purchase
we will collect, and return it - absolutely free of charge.
