No worries, KenLee are very reputable seller, your baby will definitely reach you safely wink.gif. Just count the days and track the shipping from their website. Estimated about 7~10 days, if Pos Malaysia have not called you to collect your parcel. Call them! else you will have to wait for a really long time.

Something bout what happen to mine:

I bought 2x GX660r when it's release, i counted about 10 days and yet no call from Pos Malaysia *as the UPS Tracking stated that they have delivered to Malaysia and cleared custom*. Then i call Pos Malaysia then found out it's already there and requested them to send to the closest outlet to me but they say have to wait for approval blablabla..so i immedietly drive there to collect it. When i reach, they notify me that there's only one that had arrived and the other one they had no idea. *as kenlee do a seperate shipping for them*

Went back, check out the other parcel and it states had already arrive, next day give them a call again, then they say arrived a few days ago. So i'll say they are not very reliable
Anyway! back to topic! ckyned. You're from Sarawak? tongue.gif my hometown/country is at Brunei brows.gif.. wonder how many users are from Borneo, probably can organize an event tongue.gif
*
If we collect ourselves, Pos Msia will not charge rm50? Kinda confused right now. rclxub.gif Somes said the parcel will be held @ Kastam.
Yes, lives in Sibu right now, but not sure about 1-2months after this cause I will be posting out. doh.gif
Sure can organize if got free time. nod.gif

FYI, I came to this MSI after changed my mind for Asus G74SX. Doing a month surfing before final decission. The main concern is about customer service & support. unsure.gif As many said they're not very happy with Asus'.

rm50? O.O why wud they charge u rm50? they already got $$ from UPS when it reach here isnt it?

and it will be stuck at pos Malaysia as they need to check what is inside it..after that they will let u go

ooo..but i heard Asus warranty and customer service is great isnt it? O.O..but i can assure u, anything happen just contact msi-my in LYN and i can personally guarantee you will like their customer service tongue.gif
*
LoL~ I'm not sure either because I read it somewhere about the charges. Maybe it's for delivery fee if we want them to send it to our doorstep.
laugh.gif we heard/read from different sources maybe. nod.gif
Okay, thanks for the info, I will take note. thumbup.gif

@razorboy: You pluck in ur battery + play ur laptop? if ur at home and gona leave ur laptop on for a long time, take out battery..overcharge or constant charge is not good for the battery..it will degrade the battery thus performing weaker..

glad to hear that! ur officially the first 780 user rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

lowest also hurt? hmm try use the nvidia control panel to decrease contrast n brightness further..or turn off the movie pro function that makes images looks more vivid..that shud help out biggrin.gif

btw, where did u get ur everki?
i cant wait to see the poison pics as well biggrin.gif
ckyned, do get some benchmarks or temps for us to see yea tongue.gif..HWMonitor works well

It'll be super expensive.

Quoted at USD2399, it's just very costly. The only extras are a 128GB SSD and the GTX580m.

You be the judge, would that extra hardware make it worth if it cost an additional USD500?

It's limited by the way smile.gif
*
that's too expensive! gtx570m far than enough as for me. but i believe the upgrade also with processor also.
my 780 still waiting for BF3, will testing it by tonight. nod.gif
