Just an update, with my 'lightweight' modification, I get about 2 hours of browsing time, in dGPU mode! Its not bad actually, I even multitask a bit by opening multiple Adobe Reader and my usual more-than-10-page tabbed browsing using Firefox

for those who have webcam prob, just uninstall the driver inside device manager first, and without restarting the laptop, install the driver from the asus website. and restart.
if this does not fix it, keep repeating uninstall the driver, and install the other driver on the website, (there are 2 driver there to choose from).
mine works correctly now.

Guys, quick question. Is there a onboard GPU for this lappie, possibly allowing a switch to increase the battery life?

QUOTE(Hico @ Dec 16 2009, 06:17 AM) wow..u r very luck to get k50am..i heard there is no stock in whole malaysia now... i have booked one from the supplier here which he said is the last he got.. hopefully he not cheat me  U mean k50ab rite? I think now they got stock. Today i found out 1 of Asus distri already received their stock for k40ab and k50ab model. the price is slightly higher due to this model using turion rm75 processor. Will snap the pic for reference.

Nice, but its only slightly faster than 2.1GHz QL-64. But I think it'll save more power on the go as Turion have 3 power planes as compared to only 2 on QL Athlons

Sorry,im not dare to post the price since im not sure about RSP yet. (due to respect the retailers)  Will update (the price) once i got the pricelist from distributor. But wat can i say is the cost (me as supplier) is almost rm100 different from previous k40ab (with athlon Q65) processor. But it still comes with asus bag and mouse.

IMO worth buying.. as ram supports up to 800Mhz.. well.. CPU performance not much diff thou. ram is the thing
