the fan speed, said to be 2400rpm.

OIC. The thing I like the most of this notebook cooler is that the fans are detachable. Perhaps for cleaning purpose.

USB 3.0 requires it the USB 3.0 Controller which is the NEC/JMicron(can't remember) chip found in major boards with USB 3.0.

oh i just realize something... the power adapter for the G53 from gentech... is it our type? or the american one? the voltage the same?

It is still usable. The voltage is the same, just that the head of the cable is US... so if u have existing laptop aside from dell, u could use back the head cable and plug it directly to the power brick.

The power adapter plug is US standard and not the UK type. For me, I just simply use a plug converter.

oh the cable from the brick to the power source is the standard 3 pin one right? well i guess voltage most important...

actually... could someone upload the pic? see whether i got the cable or i need go get an adapter...

I will snap some photos for you. Wait for a moment.

Oh well, it happens.

No wonder Ken Lee always said that Asus's ETA never right. LOL!

Shipment always delay, so best order it when its on stock.

What to do. New G53 selling is just like the fresh + hot muffin cakes from oven. Have to sacrifice the time of waiting in order to get the 1st hands on the new notebook.

Ah, im currently at UNSW. Seems like im gonna get a G-series friend next year.

Yeah, if there is a Steam offer, get it on Steam sales. Probably around RM50.

I would take Justin's words with a grain of salt. He'll probably post again with some "good news" about having a special batch coming in.

to G73 owners, is there any difference with the standard wireless card vs Intel cards ? Since GenTech reduced their prices on their HDD,RAM,Blueray etc I've got about 150USD in credit to spend so wondering if there are any advantages between these cards.

Standard G73JH wifi card is atheros ones, a lot of ppl complaining connection drop, then they get Intel N6200.

Hmmmm, im using Atheros.

Feels the same.

Hope it doesnt drop much.

Anyway, isnt the wifi card upgradable?
