Power4Gear that Asus provided?

Drooling over this new baby...

4 USB ports???

that's little for a 17"...

even my 14" also got 5...

Great desktop replacement!

Looks stealthy

really impressed with ASUS comeback to the gaming scene with this no nonsense gaming notebook!! they really took to heart the strong complains bout the heating issues on its prev batch of gaming notebooks & rectified the problem by having this new "exhaust" system in th G73...

Good to see alienware having a new competitor!! Good for us gamers!!

Sager is always there to compete wit Alienware...

however the 2 are more established in the gaming industry since they both concentrate on this niche market...

Asus on the other hand have virtually a model for each and different market... the original G series (G1 and G2) were actually pretty disappointing... but starting from the 2nd gen (G50, G70, G71), it's much more promising, and could throw out some good performance compared to AW and Sager...

now come the 3rd gen (G51 and G73), i do hope Asus can bring out some surprises...

yeap

Quite a monster this one, hope Asus G Series will have what it takes to compete with others gaming laptop ...but after reading and doing some research on spec, it really A MONSTER ...

not really help to reduce the battery.. haha
I using this system for my Asus too..
ony reduce few mins like 10-15 mins.

Already place order from XoticPC.
hopefully need not wait more than 2 months.

how much u brought including all the tax and shipping fees?
MYR ty..

wow congrats!

Malaysia don't tax computer product.
total including shipping is around RM6.1k

Basic spec?
For now, we cannot customize the thermal compound at xoticPC anymore.. If not the cooling system not bad..

the default thermal compound is already sufficient.
unless you willing to spend more of your dime.

yeh, the default is sufficient enough already.
click the review link in 1st post.
the temp stayed pleasantly cool.

got 4 model to chose from.
i pre-ordered the A1 model.

the other spec remain same, the only differences is.
A1 - Bluray Optical Drive, 2x500gb HDD, Bag & Mouse
A2 - DVD Optical Drive, 2x500gb HDD, Bag & Mouse
X1 - DVD Optical Drive, 1x500gb HDD
X3 - DVD Optical Drive, 2x320gb HDD

Congratulation ... XoticPC is an US company right? Do they have the service to deliver it to Malaysia? How much you pay for the delivery price and why you say IT product no need tax one. I thought Malaysia's custom will check it one?
