QUOTE(Viperion @ Sep 8 2010, 01:41 PM) Actually it's not about breaking it or not. Seriously the stock vBios code is atrocious. The measly 2hours battery life is caused by the high clocks. With the new vBIos this issue is resolved. Running on stock Catalyst is never an option because newer games will never be able to run on it  Yup, new vbios and catalyst 10.8 seems to allow more low profile operating hours on ur stealth fighter.

QUOTE(Trrienty @ Sep 9 2010, 10:08 PM) Yea..GenTechPC i bought G73JH-B1! they keep telling ship tomorrow till now still no news yet  Good for u, but still A1 would be worth a lot better than B1. There are still some reseller selling A1 batch like BTO Tech or XopticPC. I just notice G53/73jw comes with Creative Eax 5.0 surround than G73JH Eax 4.0 surround.

I guess ur drive is a bit sensitive. But its still normal if out of the 20 dvds u read only 5 failed. But I'd rather ask for more info? Out of how many? or totally 5 dvds fail? Coz urs problem is one awkward ones. QUOTE(coolman91 @ Sep 11 2010, 01:06 PM) If the price fits ur prefered price then its fine. Cheers.

QUOTE(coolman91 @ Sep 11 2010, 04:32 PM) hmm sure.... but how do i check is refurbished units or brand neW ??? uh... that's a bit hard to tell. But If its a refurbish unit, they should be label the unit as "Asus G73Jh-RBBX05-REFURB" on the box packaging. Though i can't be too osure if that's fairly accurate. Cheers.

QUOTE(coolman91 @ Sep 12 2010, 08:36 PM) oh thanks then how about G73jh-A1CUSTOM ?? brand new or refurbish unit ?  Like jeffrey said, it could be some upgrade done than refurbish. But did u custom anything? If u didn't then i guess it could be retailer upgraded ur core i7 720QM to 740QM?  AFAIK, there's 2 retailers i know for selling Refurbished Asus Laptop, one is tigerdirect, another is BTO Tech.

QUOTE(coolman91 @ Sep 13 2010, 12:12 AM) haiz........ but refurbished got warranty ?? and wat is the cons and good about refurbished ...=.= need 2 get rdy is refurbished le haiz refurbish got 3 months warranty from Asus iinm. Mostly its due to customer rejected the RMA unit and thus its labeled Refurbished in most cases. Added on September 13, 2010, 12:26 amAs for pros, well its tested after re-assembled and new box and stuff. Cons, if ur unlucky then u might need to RMA it again.  But let's hope ur unit is new.

QUOTE(Viperion @ Sep 14 2010, 12:20 AM) Hmmm, are you sure refurbished units come with 3 months warranty only? I thought Asus will honor the warranty from the date of purchase with an actual invoice and if the invoice cannot be produced they will follow the manufacturing date stated on the notebook. The reason why I suspect it's refurbished is because the statement the seller declared, units might come with or without packing. Some of these units were returned before the 30 days money back guarantee and the seller repackage the unit and resell. Hence the suspicion, for warranty I think Asus will honor the 2 years warranty as long as you have an actual invoice or if not they will at least follow from date of manufacture  I was refering to here about that refurbished warranty.

QUOTE(Viperion @ Sep 14 2010, 01:27 PM) LMAO! 3 months refurbished product warranty at the price USD 1049? I think they will be stuck with a lot of REFURB stocks  I think the best is to check with Asus on the validity of the warranty period  The fact is i did consider of that refurbish unit, and u can custom to get 2 years warranty from Asus. But the only warranty u won't get is Asus ZBD valid.

QUOTE(Viperion @ Sep 14 2010, 03:17 PM) Ah, that makes more sense then. Nobody would invest USD 1K ++ just to get 3 months warranty  Asus ZBD is only valid in the USA  Before B1 was up for pre-order, its retail price was USD 999.  Added on September 14, 2010, 4:20 pmQUOTE(Jeffrey1987 @ Sep 14 2010, 04:01 PM) Unfortunately NO.  After I have ran the Windows Memory Diagnostic, it diagnosed my notebook has a memory problem. Its solution is to identify and repair the problem by contacting the computer manufacturer. (according to the report generated) Currently, I'm still thinking whether I want to send it for RMA or not. Anyway, do you guys know what is this memory problem? I keep BSOD since then . . .  RMA it. could be the bad memory chip starting to acting up.

Even Malaysia price G73jh-A1 batch at RM9999 with win 7 ultimate and bundled headset, mouse, backpack. Since ur from JB why not get from Mucro Asia which is so close to u.
