I've done a cure with it we are here taking a look at the main gear nomad 17 now there is still a place in the world for big desktop replacement laptops even though a lot of what we've seen lately are super slim ultrabooks are kind of inventive touchscreen hybrid convertible laptops every once in a while especially if you're a PC gamer you're gonna want a big honking tank of a laptop like this the problem is even if you're willing to spend $2,000 or more in one of these systems if you get it from a boutique PC maker like main gear like Origen a couple of others you'll get great attention to detail watch the configuration options a very powerful system but it's built into a very generic body some companies use a Cleveland some companies use an msi body like this particular case right here what you end up with is something that does not exactly look like maybe you spent $2,000 on it laptop wise at the very least in main gears case they take some automotive paint and give you a custom colored back lid with a kind of baked on almost glisteny car finish to it but there's so much cool high design stuff going on in laptops right now it doesn't feel particularly modern that point aside when you can do with something like the main gear no man 17 is it started about $1,500 for a decent set of components but then you can upgrade all the way up to a quad core Core i7 on the latest Nvidia graphics big hard drives even big SSD hard drives this particular configuration there's a little bit north of $2,000 and we could have gone up even more if we added let's say like a 256 gig SSD to it performance wise this or any of the super high-end the laptop you're gonna spend this kind of money on which is below our benchmarks away and everyday use even things like HD video editing or something other some other tasks that's very sort of intensive like that no problem at all I'm Dan Ackerman and that is the main gear nomad 17
