Call me slightly confused... Does anyone have any info on what the delay is regarding full release to North America /US would be? I see the Wingman has been available in Europe for about a month, but nothing can be found on my side of the Atlantic from US vendors. What gives?
-
I was hopeful that Wingman would have made its debut by now. My thoughts now turn toward CES. Anyone in the know want to unofficially give this an acknowledgment?

Somewhat interesting (and I hope is a mistake), is that the specs do NOT list NVidia GTX 980 (desktop) nor does it list a QFHD display. Again, I'm hopeful this is just a mistake on their web site.
OK. This is a bit interesting, and I misinterpretted Clevo's model numbering scheme.
According to their website correctly, the "P775DM" will be the model for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M/970M (mobile GPUs). However, the P775DM1 (notice the trailing "1" - which is also the title for this thread), will be the model sporting the GeForce GTX 980 (Desktop GPU). So for those awaiting the appearance of this model on vendor websites using the Clevo numbering scheme, make sure you verify the correct model number / feature before ordering.
[ Not that you wouldn't do that in the first place. :>) ]
On a related note, here's one of the first reviews I've come across - http://www.notebookcheck.net/Schenker-XMG-U716-Clevo-P775DM1-Notebook-Review.155740.0.html

Argh... Stupid IPad auto-correct. While I do enjoy the word-play, the text was inadvertent.
My apologies to Eurocom.

The Eurocom DLX7 is up. I would guess we won't be waiting too much longer to start seeing the Wingman start appearing with other vendors / boutiques.

If that is like the other Clevo models, the "-G" will mean the Wingman with G-Sync monitor/graphics adapter. And BTW, P775DMx-G will also mean a non-4K panel as nVidia has not yet certified any 4K panels as G-Sync. And yes, the desktop GTX 980 for Wingman is the 180W version.??ClevoIsn´t that the gtx980 180W version?... ( P775dm1-G instead of P775dm )
I saw that too. I hope: 1) Clevo updates their web site and 2) North American/USA resellers gets those displays.PS: here is the 4k Auo panel version of the laptop: Eurocom Configure Model -
Yeah. The Wingman is $500 CAD ($375 USD) LESS than the P870DM when configured with similar cpu, memory, display and graphics card. I was hoping there would be a bigger difference in pricing between the two models.Pretty expensive though, compared to their p770DM! -
Yes. This is what we've read in the public arena, but to me it is not official until Clevo says so. So, how do they do that? By putting out the info on their web-site or issuing an official Press Release. I guess a vendor's configuration page would suffice too.It will support both GTX 980 (180W version, not 200W) And 4k display.Since we've seen so much reportage about GTX 980 (desktop 180W), my guess is there is just a mistake on Clevo's web site.

I'm trying to get out in front of the release and get stuff lined up ahead of time.
For a TIM, I was leaning toward Coolaboratory LU, but I have some other hardware I'd like to use it on as well, and I believe there are some aluminum pieces involved. Is Gelid GC-Extreme my next best option? Note, I'm not positive, but I thought I read it is safe for almost all heatsink materials.
Any advice?
TIA

since NDAs are in place all we have is the rumor mill. In that vein, someone posted thought they heard near end of Dec.Do you guys know, when P775DM will be relased?- 1
-
So, the difference b/w Phoenix and Wingman is just a little more design for cooling? Anything else?

Strange. Maybe they had some kind of production snafu. I guess it works out for the best. With the latest Skylake BIOS bug, I was waiting for a fix to that regardless of availability.
