133MHz???

True, hybrid HDD and EAX 4.0.

The only thing i dont really like is, i need to do the repasting myself.

u sure that's even consider a problem for ppl like us???

G53/73jw are using EAX 5.0.

I know it;s 133MHz, but will it be noticeable?

Maybe a couple of frames different?

The reason that Gentech owns is because they can do the repasting for me,BIOS update,3 years international warranty and i get 133 MHz more. I dont get EAX4.0 and hybrid HDD,though. The bad thing if i get form Gentech is, i might get fined and lost RM1k to the damn customs if they found out it's a brand new laptop.

Added on October 18, 2010, 3:10 pmIm quite scared to be frank, as i never did a repasting myself.

Scared i destroy my whole com.

Other than that, im actually ok with it.

Yea, but im pretty much wanting G73JH now, and the one at Gentech does not have EAX4.0 if im not wrong.

nah... u won;t see any difference unless u re benchmarking...

anyway, imho 720QM is already good enuf... tried on my friend's Sager NP8690 before (with GTX 285M)... everything is butter smooth, except for loading windows (since i am using Momentus XT )...

Then u could actually go outside the ocean and wait for the ship to come, then u go up the shipping ship, collect urself and save urself and the laptop from passing custom and avoided Aussie's GST.

No, SSD is better.

Well, worth considering, as both option are quite good, IMO.

I need to learn how to do repasting then. Starting with my old laptop. Maybe i should file a complain and get the GC fixed before the warranty runs out.

the main hard part is to figure out how to disassemble and reach the CPU... other than that it's pretty easy...

That's just some crazy suggestions though.... But better let the Dell Fixes ur problem but will Dell AU fix ur laptop if ur Warranty is MY ones?

well, if you google on how to change the thermal paste, it's quite complicated for G73, as you need to remove the monitor,keyboard to reach the GPU and CPU. Then, thats the problem with dual fan system, you need to remove 2 fans separately.

After, if nothing goes wrong, awesome!!

Added on October 18, 2010, 3:21 pmLOL, i know.

Well, the problem is, the Dell AU service is slow. Really really slow.

Gawd knows where the guy come from.

It took me 1 and half weeks to fix the HDD, while in Malaysia, 3 days max.

most of the repaste guy are following btotech video on disassembling.

I know, but the problem is, if i repaste and i screw up everything, i only can blame myself. If the repaste guy do and he screw up, i can ask for replacement.

Thats just a minor concern, though. I have to try la, on my aging Dell first, as it's ridiculously hot now.

It seems the pasting isnt really the problem, but the wifi is overheating like crazy.

Wifi overheating?

I dont know, i just know that part of the laptop that is hot, there is a wifi card. Nothing else.

No idea why.

On the other hand, this is sweet too. Non HD screen is even better. It's G53, though.

Their G73,has Bluray too.

I suddenly thought of Online Computers because they sponsored Malaysian Fest last month.

G53 with HD 1366x768 res + GTX 460m = Flying frame rates!!

Seriously, thats what i want, and it's under 2k!

I'll take a lower res screen than a high res one any day.

Flying frame rates >>>> Full HD.

maybe mafia 2 can play max details + physx on.
Crysis 2? No comment yet.

G73JW seem to have better thermal pasting. Seems like Asus has learnt it's lesson with G73JH.

I might as well just wait for the low res G53 then. 1300x700 is more than enough for me. Hell, im still playing 800x600 on some older games because i want more flashy effects.
