vy nicely done eric!!! now i wonder why there isn't much interest in this brand... given that the specs & features are tremendously much better than its competitors. some more @ cheaper prices!!!

Any members can provide any info??

Is it coz dis brand juz came to the local scene???

1 main reason i cud think is due to the service/ or lacking customer service faciilities.. It seems that a lot of notebook purchasers are very particulars on after sales services..

For example ppl are so excited when dell upgraded the XPS 16 with the ATI 4670 card.. seems like its heaven send!! Given that the GX725 comes with ATI 4850 a much better card @ similar price, nobody pay attention to MSI..

Hem, why??
*
1. The brand has been around say 4-5 years already. But due to the lack of advertising etc, not many ppl know about MSI laptops.

2. Well, usually the place that sells this notebook offers warranty service as well.

3. Like before, Dell is an established brand, so ppl trust Dell to offer better quality and aftersales service.

Well, I do hope that I created this thread, more ppl will understand more about MSI and perhaps jump onto the MSI bandwagon.

Well, as I said before, mine is also a MSI.

Minor intermittent problems like randomly hang happens. But lately I noticed that my WiFi adapter is dead also. Since mine is an older model, and the WiFi adapter is of the Mini PCI type, looking for a replacement will be harder.

Keyboard, touchpad and screen are still fine. Screen has no dead pixels whatsoever. Oh, since I used to plug in and plug out of the audio jack a wee bit too rough+often, it is also dead. Using an external USB sound card to power my speakers.

Nice spec actually... Been eyeing this laptop early this year...
Ok la for the price less than RM5000...  rclxms.gif 
including freebies: gaming mouse and MSI design laptop bag..
For me.. is worth the investment... biggrin.gif

The Spec:
MSI GT725 | C2D P8600 | 500GB | ATI Radeon HD4850 512MB GDDR3

Main drawback for this laptop... Heavy... 3.5kg...  sweat.gif

The build... better than Acer... (no offence guys... this is my opinion)...
I found out ok... giving scale - I will rate 8/10...

Weird about MSI - Malaysia will always left out from their market radar...  sweat.gif

My point is that before buying this model,  MSI have already begin promoting GT729..
Did ask the seller about this latest model but it seem they (seller) doesn't know that this new model exist...
unsure.gif

That's the prob. And in terms of warranty claims, it will be a bit tough.

Thank god mine did not give me any major problems.

Running solid after 2 years of rough usage.
