thanks alot for the info bro!

this is really an affordable gaming notebook. i've been trying to customize dell's 14 studio/inspiron but afterall only asus have a 14' gaming laptop with an affordable price which dells 14 would easily lead me to 2.5k> after customizing the graphic's card! i think ppl might turn their eye on this little machine very soon as it's more portable (>2kg considered light to me and smaller in size too) than studio 15.

im looking for a light gaming subnotebook (light weight and long battery life) actually, but this caught mah eye so easily and i'm really tempting to examine the notebook by myself!

k40ab
14inches
2.36kg (macbook 13' already weighted 2.27kg)
RM2199

studio15
15inches
2.55kg
RM2799

really hope u can give more reviews (like battery life) as i can hardly find these info.
*
yup, it is light n it has a nice body colour tat look like carbon fibre. Battery life, if refer the site, it mention about 6 hours. 6 hours of battery b4 kong thx to the cooling architecture in the notebook. tongue.gif

ya.. b4 the purchase i also struggle between studio & K40.. but check back the spec, warranty given, n quality, i must admit i prefer Asus. I'm also using Dell precision M4400, but the quality of the casing, it like a pc of junk plastic but the core is okay la. K40 more solid & better feeling when touch on it icon_idea.gif

For K40Ab, tested with vista. Y it startup so slow? is it bcos of vista application? (1st time vista user).

ya, palm rest area indeed never feel hot for whole night long.

smart logon, not smart at all, cant detect my face to logon. hmm.gif

Played PES 2009, the graphic so nice & smooth (thx to the 512mb GC) .. but the user (me) sucks in this game tongue.gif

overall, price over performance, worth!~

For vista, do not install too much program. It will slower down the laptop performance.

Asus have a lot of additional softwares to install n not really sure wat the reasons for it. it really slow down my startup as most of it run during the startup. I had deleted a few. tongue.gif

K40 series all in the same casing, just different spec.
K50 depends on which you are referring to.  blush.gif
No problem. check it out in your inbox.
blush.gif
Not many, jz K series and U series.  blush.gif
Ohh ^^
Bro, yes, you may sennd it to the service network in Selangor.
Ok, it's all depends on the company's policy.
For Evernew, they will change it for you within one week or you switch from one model to another model.
But it depends on which type of customer they are dealing with.
If okok one, can persuade one, then send it for service without changing it.

For warranty wise, it depends on the parts availability.
No charges take into consideration since your laptop is covered under warranty. If you need to pay anything extra, do let me do the warranty claiming for you.  smile.gif
Depends on which spec you are going for. For K40IN, you can have Nvidia Chipset, but do put this in mind, K40series doesn't comes with Bluetooth and HDMI port.
blush.gif
Not yet bro  wink.gif

bro, you mean in this case, i can go back to evernew for 1 to 1 change? or seek their help to send for services without charges? if part need to be change, do i need to pay for the as well? any specific procedure for claiming? thanks 1st for offering your help blush.gif u working in asus or reseller?

Em, 1005HA. Incoming model, haven't reach yet.
Pricing at RM 1499- 1699.

I'm Asus Authorised dealer. So i should know all this stuff  blush.gif
Well, it's better for you to lodge a complain to Evernew and request them to change a brand new unit for you.
Otherwise, ask them to send it for service for you.
No charges is needed during warranty period.
Eventhough major parts like Screen or mobo, all FOC during warranty period. Unless it's proven by the service centre that the faulty of the laptop is due to customer's carelessness. Since warranty only covers manufacturer defect, in that case, you need to pay for it.

Bring your receipt and give it together with the laptop to them. They will service it nicely for you. But of coz, do chec kyour laptop once u receive it back from the service centre.  laugh.gif
