I placed a pre-order to the G53 back in August ... and got all excited when I got an email from GenTech saying their first shipment was coming last week. Only to be shot down yesterday after being told earliest ship date will be Nov due to hdd bracket shortage

QUOTE(DoubleU @ Oct 23 2010, 10:04 PM) hahah can't play too long... wait awhile longer... and HD7000 series will be upon us. And i want G53 la... not the monster G73 (too big) I had the same order with xoticpc, but canceled it after they quoted me a stupid shipping fee of 295USD ! @corad... it seems xoticpc hasn't started shipping either.  I've been buying Sager laptops with them for the past 5 years , and even with that leverage they stuck to their price while GenTech quoted 120USD. This will be my 1st Asus tho, see-ing they have similar specs as the Sager NP8690 , but about 50USD cheaper  |

QUOTE(asusg73 @ Oct 25 2010, 10:11 AM) Today Cubehub reply and quote me the G73JW-A1 at SGD2500 net come with keyboard backlight and WASD in blue color(exclusive at Cubehub the website mention).compare with gentech they are more cheaper and they ship by UPS insured.So far USPS think is no a good shipment mention at the forum here thats why its cheap????? hi dude, i've replied you on the sager thread but now I feel obliged to point out your promoting is useless. clubehub is not cheaper than gentech/xoticpc, even with a backlight keyboard or shipping. i'm afraid this sort of false advertisement will only hurt the/your company. |

QUOTE(riku2replica @ Oct 27 2010, 09:33 AM) G73 is more like budget single GPU laptop. They rarely do dual GPU configuration like Clevo/Sager/Alienware. I'm just glad that Asus is serious about their gaming line while keeping the price reasonable It's what the XPS from Dell should have been. |

QUOTE(Jeffrey1987 @ Oct 28 2010, 12:11 AM) Added on October 28, 2010, 7:48 amBad News! G53 shipment which is expected to be on tomorrow is delayed till 08 Nov.  to G73 owners, is there any difference with the standard wireless card vs Intel cards ? Since GenTech reduced their prices on their HDD,RAM,Blueray etc I've got about 150USD in credit to spend so wondering if there are any advantages between these cards. |

QUOTE(Cheesenium @ Oct 28 2010, 09:43 AM) Hmmmm, im using Atheros. It is, but I was thinking of spending my credit on either extra RAM / HDD space. But if the intel cards make a big difference, I might just sacrifice abit and go for the intel 6200. Feels the same. Hope it doesnt drop much.  Anyway, isnt the wifi card upgradable? GenTech are still saying their orders will ship this Friday, so fingers crossed ! |
