QUOTE(astria @ Oct 16 2010, 10:42 AM) well, so are some owners of A42Jv... their HDD also kong after a short while Seagate 2.5" HDD dun seem to be as durable as others...  Like mine. 8 days and the Seagate HDD died-ded.  I would be happier if they gave me a Hitachi, WD or Samsung as a replacement instead of another Seagate.

Finally managed to overclock my CPU, unfortunately like Kizwan, it BSODs when trying to increase it to 160MHz.

The one you told me to use last time. Added on October 26, 2010, 5:14 pmQUOTE(kizwan @ Oct 26 2010, 02:50 PM) Yeah, that is correct but it still real processor speed.  Not something we calculate on paper & dream for it when sleeping.  In my opinion, for budget gaming notebook, because it doesn't have fancy cooling system (fancy heatsink), i5 processor is much better than i7 in real life performance. I found i7 (mobile) processor, especially quad core processor is very lazy to achieve highest turbo boost compare to i5 because of the insufficient cooling system. Nvidia released new driver very fast. Maybe a lot of complains to 260.89 driver. I also found if installed without fresh install option selected, nvidia control panel seems not stable. Our i5-450M runs at 4X degress and lower when idling. My friend's X42Jr's i7 runs more than 5X degrees on idle. This post has been edited by AlexLai: Oct 26 2010, 05:14 PM

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Oct 26 2010, 05:30 PM) So, how much you got the CPU run at? Stopped at 2.66GHz. QUOTE(kizwan @ Oct 26 2010, 10:01 PM) On unrelated matter, anyone use "keyboard protective film" on their notebook? I have two things worried me; heat air dissipated at keyboard area & accuracy when typing. Any thoughts are welcome.  I don't trust it. It doesn't affect typing accuracy but then I'm concerned about the heat dissipation. It seems slightly hotter on my friend's laptop when it's applied on.

New driver kinda sucks for some games. I can't play COD on it.

EOLed around 2+ months already and there's nothing to really fill the void it left.

QUOTE(astria @ Nov 7 2010, 01:33 PM) well, there's Acer Aspire TimelineX 4820TG...  juz nothing from Asus only... i ve a feeling it's becuz of the new U series... If only the A42JA drops down to that price point.  But I feel a replacement may be imminent. Like how the A42Jr finally got its true successor in the form of the A42Je after a good 5+ months after it EOLed.
