I recommend getting a TPU keyboard protector instead of silicone. Even more see thru and nicer to use. smile.gif

No other reasons le? Ah...if it's really mobo problem, roughly how long will it take them to replace a new one?
*
Well I don't like to speculate but if you replaced your HDD and the problem still occurs, it might be something affecting the laptop itself. But I think if it's a mobo issue, it might take 2 weeks+ to get it replaced.

did asus stopped the culv laptops? will there be any sandy bridge culvs?

Asus doesn't really believe in CULV laptops anymore I guess. Even their U series are being equipped with regular notebook CPUs.

You should start getting rid of the bloatwares and update the Nvidia drivers. The driver update might solve your lag in COD.

i think that is the LED light showing your system switching between nvidia and intel GPU. blue is nvidia while white is intel...
*
Double check with my friend. White is Nvidia while blue is Intel. The older N series like the N82 used to have a sticker that tells you what color is which.

The CPU and GPU is not the main concern, because it can tolerate much higher heat than that, what concerns me that made me sold my A42Je is the harddrive temperature, just look at that, 48-49C is not a good sight at all, mine could reach 52C when gaming.

To compare, on 4743ZG right now while browsing no air conditioner and balanced profile

Exactly! I'm not surprised it's that high heat that leads to some of the hard drive problems some owners of the series are having. I wonder how much your HD temp will be if you used an SSD though.

Planning to buy ASUS this upcoming PC Fair,
which one is the newer one, U45JC or U41JC
from what i see,
1.U45JC :has better sound (Altec Lansing with SRS sound,
            :RM no idea yet
2.U41JC:Ram can extend up to 8Gig;
            :Price :RM2999
ASUS gurus, which one better?
*
The U45 is an older series, less powerful than the U41 and at a higher price as well. Altec Lansing with SRS sound is merely a gimmick. Mine has it too but they are soft and the sound quality is downright unimpressive.

QUOTE(LoonFay @ Apr 11 2011, 04:37 PM)
Just contacted ASUS helpline, stated that U41SV will be available end of this month, April, but not available in PC fair
*
Great to hear! It's a good model. SB proc with an Nvidia GT540M makes a powerful combination.
