hopping u can get your baby soonXD

Kudos! PM me when your stealth bomber has arrived . . . I will put you into the proud owner list.

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

You sorted out your BSOD issue yet?

then bro got any to check or verify it ??

I was refering to here about that refurbished warranty.

Don't worry mate, that is good news for you as even if refurbished your warranty should still be at least 2 years or more than 3 months It's very hard to check as even buying from a retail store at times you can get refurbished unit if the boss/employees are not honest. What matters is your units comes without damage, your windows should be at first start mode and the warranty is 2 years

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.

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

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 . . .

Before B1 was up for pre-order, its retail price was USD 999.

Is another problem again on how to send my notebook for RMA in Germany.

Just take it to germany asus service center and they'll scan the barcode on the bottom of ur chasis to verify the warranty validity to proceed for RMA.

hey guys, if I order with gentech, using the usps standart (149 USD) one... how long will it take? 2 months? cause its freight right? It doesn't include insurance either right?

So its better to use the UPS one that comes with insurance? Is gentech the best one to use if i'm shipping it back to msia? and also... with the item be taxed when it arrives here?

I used USPS and it just took me 7 days to reach my doorstep.

I used a freight forwarding service comgateway.com, using DHL..they charge only usd100 (and I used Gentech Pc within US free shipping)..takes about 1 1/2 weeks (due to weekend) to reach my doorstep...

Do you have an account here? If you registered your laptop, login and click on warranty info. Check under Notebook and the click on the link Notebook Global Service on the right. Click on Asus Global Service Center. Look for the country you are in, in this case:

Germany
01805-010920 (09:00-18:00, Mon.~Fri., £á14cent/min German fix line; mobile communication max £á42cent/min)

You should download a memtest program to check your memory modules out to confirm there is a hardware issue before RMA. I will search for one later and post it here

I have pull out a memory module and ran my notebook the whole day without any BSOD. My guess is that the particular memory module is faulty and I have asked Ken Lee to issue a RMA form/ letter to me. Hopefully everything will be OK.

Anyway, how many days it would take for RMA?

Well, in Malaysia it will take usually 1~2 weeks if they have the item in stock. For my case, the LCD will take 2~3 weeks to reach Malaysia and then another week or so for them to replace it. The RMA depends on how efficient the staff are and the return rate for that particular center
