Actually after customization, my selection of Studio 15 is RM3682. If I buy this laptop, I can save RM1682 which is very tempting

i remembered last time i did ask the shop and he told me asus cover everything for 2 yrs except the adapter and battery only 1 yr... so i dun think the waranty for ram, hdd and processor is from dealer..suppose to send to asus service centre then the centre will go claim from the manufacturer... if those thing cover by dealer, then they also quite busy doing the replacement tongue.gif unless u upgrade the ram or HDD when u purchase, then the extra ram or HDD is cover by the dealer who you purchase and he will claim from the manufacturer...correct me if i am wrong..just my own opinion.. biggrin.gif

Dealer, reseller, retail won't want to cover the RAM and HDD themselves for sure.

Unless you willing pay more for longer & local warranty
*
true...even if you buy the ram or hdd from them, they will help you to claim but not waranty by them.. same like HDD first yr shop wil help you to claim..2nd yr u have to send back to the manufacturer urself oledi.. ram also the same.. tats what i did b4..send back directly to WD for my faulty HDD after 1 yr..

For me I did not send to dealer at all. I directly deal with the distributor or manufacturer unless I don't have a choice at all. Much faster. Retailer something delay your RMA.  doh.gif

yalo..no choice..i am not from kl..so have to depend on the shop i bought.. or else need to send by post..dangerous also if missing or anything happen during delivery.. blush.gif

I would not say it is pricing matter, but inconvenience issue. smile.gif


Added on October 8, 2009, 12:54 pmJust to double confirm. By default the 2GB ram will come in 2x1GB or 1x2GB ram?

I got one which is just a bit wider than the usb hub by few mm.
The smaller, the better so we can just plug it and forget it was there.

ya..my friend one also like that..after plug in, cant even see you are using bluetooth as it is black colour too.. rclxms.gif

That is lame, really if they only change that. QL64 and QL65, you know the difference between those? Only 200MHz HyperTransport speed increase, I was thinking at least 100MHz clock speed increase to 2.2GHz or maybe DDR2-800MHz support but I don't think this 'new' so-called K45 is going to be any faster doh.gif

EDIT: I don't even believe it called K45, because at different place the CPU is different, look at the K40AB specs all around, they even got Turion X2 Ultra selling somewhere
*
who knows the name is given by the seller themselves? doh.gif
anyway since there is not much different then not worth to spend rm100 more..rather stick to k50 tongue.gif now the only shop i can find k50 is with 250gb..since like no luck with 320gb anymore cry.gif

hypertransport speed is used for wat??

anyways both QL-64 & 65 are 2.1ghz. The ONLY diff is, QL 65 has higher HTT 2000mhz vs 1800mhz, which doesn't make much diff in real life
yeah it does, pretty cool to see fusion shutting down those unnecessary task behind..not sure if it actually does much diff
*
maybe new batch k40ab all come with QL65 oledi...hopefully the price can go like rm1999 too.. or else have to pay extra rm100 for a not much different cpu .. tongue.gif
