well, planning to ask my bro to help me buy some 2nd hand bluray movies from UK, they can go as low at 3 pounds (usually 5 pounds) imo its a very good price for original.
Thinking of adding a 2nd 500GB hard drive instead of changing the first one to a momentus XT. What do you think?
cause i can afford around 100 USD of upgrade only, so its either bluray + 500GB vs momentus XT only.
Both have their own pros and cons IMHO. If you expect a faster boot up, momentus might contributes to your need. As for 500 GB normal HDD, it can serves you in terms of capacity.
To all possible buyers, you guys can try to e-mail Ken Lee of GenTechPC if you guys have any doubts in mind. I can assure to you guys that he offers a really GREAT customer service. You guys can try to mention my name: Jeffrey or Mark (Viperion) when you e-mail him.
GentechPC or XoticPC, both have very good representatives, i prefer xoticpc though, they seemed.. more professional. but alas, the deliver was slightly more expensive so I opted for Gentech.
yes it is indeed cheaper to get from US rather than SGD, even at conversion rate of 3.14, you'll most likely get that number nowadays when doing TT. Delivery will cost you around 100+ USD.
when i calculated my total cost, it came down to RM5.7k, which is cheaper than SGD 2500 = approx. RM6k.
hm, I hope my delivery calculations are correct, using comgateway pricing, i got under 100USD (70USD actually since the weight i got for the G53 is 8kg) if it goes over 100 USD.... there goes my budget... maybe can't get rokkat kave =\
i also remember ken posting some temperature benchmarks and with the stock paste the G53 was quite cool...
hahha not entirely sure yet. I placed my order already... but i think its still under pre-order, something about running out of hdd brackets? (i think someone said that's what happened to his pre-order he placed back in september)
So i probably have to wait awhile.
Yea. I heard from others that G53 now is lacking of HDD bracket and have to wait for a while. If I'm not mistaken, Ken said that almost every Asus notebooks have diff. HDD brackets.
Added on October 26, 2010, 7:51 pm hi if u compare the asus g73jw with the alienware m17x which do u pick?
For me, I certainly will choose Asus G73Jw as it has higher performance/ price ratio. It is way way way cheaper than AW M17x and it has a spectacular specs too. In terms of quality, Asus has improved a lot since G73 gaming notebooks. Brand new cooling system and it has 2 years global warranty too.
unless you really want the bling bling lights that alienware has... but imo, the G73 has a better design... you can look up putochip if you want to get the alienware cheaper... i think now he doing M15x for 4.8K MYR.... so wait until he got the M17x instock
price dropped by 20USD on the G53jw =\
I'm agree with you too that I still prefer Asus plain design compared to AW bling bling design.

For me, it is kinda useless as I have no blu-ray discs.
