Ya Allah Khair I hope I'm paying in the correct thread. This is my first post on PG after stalking it for ages now.
I recently had the bright idea of purchasing a gaming laptop. With the market in the horrible state as it is right now I couldn't find a decent one (what a surprise) at a reasonable price. But then I stumbled onto something truly interesting.
I7-9750H?
GtX 1660ti?!
144hz display??!!
Mechanical keyboard?!
PAKISTANI GAMING LAPTOP?!
I am ofcourse refering to the viper expeder c71a for sale on telemart.pk for 2 Lacs something. Now that sounds pretty good but is it really a rebranded eluktronics mag 15? does anyone have any experience ordering from telemart or if this machine is all that it claims to be?

@Phoenix997 telemart.pk is a legit site afaik but I haven't heard of this laptop tbh, but if its a eluktronics mag 15 then its a rebrand like you said alot of boutique manufacturers do this like buying barebones from clevo/sager and selling them.

Im not sure about the viper though sorry.

@Phoenix997 I would suggest to get a gaming machine from one of the big name companies, I know prices are ridiculous at this time but at least you will have some peace of mind with your purchase. Alternatively you can check out the marketplace here on PG maybe someone is selling a laptop that fits your requirement for a reasonable price.

Better go for Intel than Ryzen in that range 3rd gen mobile ryzen are not that great. They get bottlenecked by the Gtx 1660ti a lot. The specs in your first post looks great. I have the asus tuf fx505du laptop with 3750h processor. AMD has locked any kind of undervolting and stuff for temperature improvements and this model has very bad ventilation. Your only best bet to lower temps on this laptop is by using a third party app Ryzen Controller.
The fan is also very noisy because of the temps.

My point is whatever laptop you buy please research about its temps, whether the processor can be undervolted etc and the fan noises.

@Kronos865 can you get me in touch with your friend so I can get some ease of mind before I order this?
I've also got my eyes on an Acer predator Helios 300. Going for 210k. If this doesn't pan out I'll go for that.
Btw... How does laptop shipping work?

@Kronos865 wait... I just realized you're talking about techglobe.pk yeah they're good. I have been in contact with them for quite a while now but unfortunately they don't have anything in stock anymore I asked them.
I have a couple of options.
1. Acer predator Helios 300 for 210k
i7 -9750h, gtx 1660ti, 144hz display
2. Viper expeder c71a for 201.5k
i7 -9750h, gtx 1660ti, 144hz display and mech keyboard, plus I've heard it's got good thermal performance
3. Acer predator Triton 700 (2018)
i7-7700hq, gtx 1080, 32 gigs ram, 145 Hz display

The predator Triton is box packed and going for 235k

I'd suggest you look at the laptops available in Pakistan. The import scene is a little tight these days due to Corona and dollar fluctuations. However someone should be able to guide you better

I have also been looking into this laptop from the time it was released. It looks like they are just using Eluktronics MAG 15 pics, no pic of their laptop on the estores where it is available show their logo and most of all the pics on Viper website shows a different product which looks like they tried to copy MAG 15 buy failed. Also they increased the price in a very short time idk why. Better stay away un till any review comes...

Guys a friend I know recently bought this laptop. According to him it's performing pretty much like a standard eluktronics mag-15 which is great news! I think.
In other news, I am now the proud owner of an absolutely breathtaking hp omen 15.
i5-9300H
rtx 2060
144hz 1080p display
512 GB SSD
1TB HDD
8GB installed ram which I'll be upping to 16 at the end of the month.
God bless and thank you to everyone who was kind enough to offer me advice!
I'll put up some more details and hopefully pictures of the viper expeder as soon as I can get my friend to send some.

I am also looking to buy a laptop. Need some guidance.

I have Asus GL702VM with GTX 1060 17.3" 75Hz GSync screen and all but I am planning to upgrade.

So if you can help me with some questions ?


1. How much i can sell this laptop for ?

2. What are my options to go for ? 1660Ti or RTX 2060/2070 ?

3. How much extra money I should have ?

Kindly give me suggestions with laptop options and prices and how to get them.

Really appreciate any help.
