Hello there! Welcome to our thread.  biggrin.gif

For the TT prcedures, I'm not really familiar with it as I bought mine via PayPal. Nevertheless, I can tell you how is the procedures roughly.

I heard from other members that Maybank is the most ideal local bank to do the wire transfer. They will charge you some money for the transfer but I forgot how much. If I'm not mistaken, it will cost you around RM30. You must bear in mind that the bank at US wil charge you too, that is, 30 USD.

As for the freight forwarder, usually we assign USPS and it will cost you 149 USD. However, there are a member called Kaizoku who assigned DHL via comGateway as his freight forwarder because he claimed that the package will not be detained by local customs then.

If you assign USPS as your freight forwarder, there will be a possibility that your package will be detained at your local customs office.  smile.gif

Hope that's helpful for you! Cheers . . .  thumbup.gif

How about Roccat Sota? Is the surface rougher or smoother than the Vespula (not the speed side).. Does the wrist rest helps a lot?lol..

aww -.-

but i do mild gaming only. what i need more is a comfortable and not-so-smooth mousepad. so vespula does a better job in this?  shocking.gif

Maybe Razer Vespula will perform a greater job as it has the wrist rest. Nevertheless, I would like to share my exp with you, that is, I'm currently more prefer to have a smooth surface gaming mousepad after I have tried Roccat Sota (before this I used a precision type of mousepad just like the Kabuto)  biggrin.gif

With the Razer Vespula you get the option for a super smooth surface and a surface for control which is less smooth. It really also depends on the mouse you are using and with the right combination you could tweak the mouse and mouse pad to work to your needs wink.gif I'm in KL and if we ever have a gathering you can check my mouse pad out.

You can also click on my nick and check my post. The information is in the previous thread and I posted the exact instructions with my experiences with wire transfer from Maybank to GentechPC.

For monitoring software use these:

AMD GPU Clock Tool
~ For monitoring your GPU and setting overclock and undercock settings

CPUID HWMonitor~ Overall system monitor, good for main CPU

GPU-Z ~ Another good GPU monitoring software. You can backup your original Vbios with this software wink.gif

The software maybe couldn't recognize because he/she might not be human shocking.gif laugh.gif

The software depends on the number of different angles you took your snapshots. The more snapshots of your beautiful face you take the easier it will be for you to login. The ambient lighting in your surroundings also place a major part. I use the software and it's a novelty bloatware that is fun to miss with at times.

I paid 1706.08 usd and I chose USPS express mail shipping option.

1549 (laptop) + 15 (burn recovery DVD) - 46.92 (discount eCheck) + 189 (USPS express shipping)

- Gentech only burn the os dvd. In the end, I burn my own recovery dvd. sweat.gif
- For USPS express shipping is awesome, unless u unlucky and ur laptop stuck at custom. My G73 arrived to UK in 5 days but stuck at custom for 4 days. vmad.gif
