The ultimate laptop for gaming


PC MicroWorks wants to set the record straight by claiming that its Edge gaming laptop is the most powerful in the world, but I would take that pitch with a grain of salt. Check out the specifications below and judge for yourself :-

- Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad Core QX9300 (2.53GHz) Processor
- 8GB Ultra Speed DDR3 1333MHz Memory
- 500GB HDD or 128GB SSD
- NVIDIA Geforce 9800M GT graphics with 512MB DDR3 memory
- Blu-ray drive
- 15.4" HD WUXGA 1920 x1200 Crystal-View X-treme Bright LCD
- 8 Channel Advanced SRS WOW Surround Sound System
- Wireless a/b/g/n, Bluetooth, optional EV-DO, GPS
- TV Tuner
- Finger Print Reader
- Windows Vista Ultimate

Prices start from $2,634 upwards, and if you think you must get your high-end gaming no matter where you are, the top-of-the-line configuration will cost you a pocket-burning $6,659 thereabouts.

The Ultimate Gaming Chair

Sick and tired of the chair you sit on when you play games, watch movies or while using your computer? There are a couple of alternatives, namely the lazyboy. The New lazyboy model has a lot of things built in it but it doesn’t have a gaming support. Ultimate Renegade Gaming chair has everything the lazyboy has plus a games controller built into the chair. People will also be able to plug this chair in with the top games console like the playstation 3, xbox 360, Nintendo Wii. You can also plug it in your PC. The Renegade also features 3D stereo speakers in the headrest with a 12 motor vibration system system for massage and games effect. The Ultimate Renegade Gaming chair also features a sound system that is synced with games. It also has a lot of inputs you can plug in for other peripheral devices. Another great thing about this system is, you can plug in your iPod and listen to the music in your ipod in 3D while getting a massage.

The Ultimate Gaming chair costs $399 excluding shipping and its baby brother, The Renegade Gaming chair will set you back $299 excluding shipping. The Renegade Gaming doesn’t have the reclining option though. From the looks of it, both The Ultimate Gaming chair and The Renegade Gaming chair looks very comfortable but The Ultimate Gaming chair seems to have more options built into it.

Car Loans UK: Stop Dreaming For A Car, Own It Today

It is a real tough decision to employ huge amounts of money in purchasing any asset. It must involve a careful approach to ensure that you are signing the best deal suited to your financial status. It is clearly known that you need huge amount of money in order to be a car owner in UK.



You may consider an option of external financing for your car by applying for a car loan UK. There are number of lenders present in the loan industry of the country who are willing to lend huge bucks for the purpose. These loans can be availed by all. However, they are specifically designed for the class of people who do not have enough funds and can not afford to spend their earnings and savings altogether. One can even get the particular loan from a bank or other financial institutions.

Car loans UK are classified in two broad categories, namely secured car loan and unsecured car loan. Both of them are distinct in their own kind. The separate terms and conditions carried by both the forms are described below.

The first category of these loans are named as "Secured Car Loans", it can be simply defined as a secured financial plan where a person needs to pledge a collateral with the lender against the loan amount. The security to be placed as a collateral can be any of your property. It can be your home, other property or any other important documents which hold value. The loan amount under secured form is definitely higher as compared to the unsecured form.

You are required to repay the total amount in easy monthly installments. Here, the repayment term can be stretched up to a s long as 25 years. Longer time duration facilitates the borrower to adjust the total monthly payment, but an overall higher interest rate. It depends on the convenience of the borrower. Also, the interest rates offered in this form is lower than the other forms. Thus this loan tool is really beneficial for those who desire to purchase a car and also own an asset which they can pledge to get the large sum of cash at one go.

In case of the unsecured car loans UK, you are not required to pledge any collateral for getting the much needed financial support. This form of loan is also known as a short term loan. Due to the fact that in comparison to the secured form of car loan, you need to pay off the amount much faster. The term of repayment of the loan amount can be extended up to 5 years, not more than that, The interest rates are higher in such cases. Reason being the risk on the part of the lender. Since, no collateral has to be submitted, you obtain lesses amount of loan that too on the higher rates.

With a wide accessibility of Internet, everyone is free to search across for various deals offered by different lenders. Further, people with bad credit who otherwise faced rejections on the approval of their loans can avail these car loans UK and make the use of money to their best advantage. Unlike, earlier times, even the lenders have become open to the entire concept of lending money to those who feel neglected by the loan industry due to their adverse credit profiles
