Thanks a lot Alex for the heads up. Gave them a mail already. They'd better walk the talk.

got reply from asus's product manager after i call and complaint..after he help me call and follow up the progress, he said my request to exchange to G53SX should not have problem.. it should reach next week.. but i ask how much i need top up to my seller..he say duno..he help me ask again..

ya..he said all the stock in msia will fully distributed to the distributor and the quantity not much.. and the stock will arrive next week... so for my case, need to send out again separately from taiwan after head office approved .. hopefully it is true.. but i think mostly you guy will get earlier than me..

i dont think so..cos my seller say i might need to top up for the different... but no confirmation from asus yet.. i asked him how if asus ask me to pay more? he cant ans me..he said will help me check again.. i am wondering can i ask  Asus to compensate me for this 4 months plus without laptop and without proper feedback? .. come to end of this month will be 5 months..  i should have the consumer's right? 

I have to wait till 2nd WEEK of November rawr. T_T

They told you that? Holy crap that's a long wait. only for the G74SX?

very, very dead indeed. We just have to wait and well... keep waiting.

No.

3D model is built in nVidia 3D emitter.

Another question, does the operating system affect the speed of a computer /etc?

maybe about rm74 for 4gb.

today im finish update bios 203 and 205 for G53sx.

BIOS 203
1.Update SandyBridge CPU <--- i dont know, feel same like before.
>Update Bios to support newer Sandy Bridge CPU such as 2670QM, 2760QM,2860QM and 2960XM.

2.Add new VGA SSID for support naked 3D. <--- i think i need software for detect my eye.. 
>This could be referring to upcoming naked eye model, not the current non-3D nor 3D.

3.Apply New Lighting Cancellation Behavior <--- what that mean?? got problem on this.. when turn off light cancellation key, keyboard light wont turn off. but now fix it by uninstall ATKPackage and install back ATKPackage. 
>Keyboard lighting as u mentioned. Doubt u can control any other thing aside from screen brightness/keyboard lighting.

4.Fix that power leakage will happen from BIOS ROM to VSUS in Main Board with DC mode. <-- dont know.
>Current AC/DC issue. Power leakage probably refer to static shock.

BIOS 205
Fixed that system will appear delay situation at ASUS logo. <--- yes it true.. after update bios 203 startup ASUS logo slow. it fixed back.

yes.. for gaming i get around 80-81.. in games with 99% gpu usage... if less gpu intensive game like fifa... around 70-75
what do u mean for 70+ ?? u mean idle around 70??

danger danger danger !!!       dude vacuum will cause electrostatic and can harm any electric hardware including pc chips and circuit board.

so the screen is matte?
T_T

how would vacuuming cause electrostatic build up on the laptop?

Added on October 13, 2011, 2:30 pmyou probably have a higher chance getting static electricity using a brush like kahtsin than using vacuum

The static actually comes from the air friction of the vacuum if im not wrong. I wouldn't use the vacuum either, rather source for an air can.

I would prefer matte screen over glossy, but oh well.

@eenong89

The panel around the screen is matte LOL

why not? an air can is around RM30-RM50, i can use and keep it for long anyway. u dont have to use the whole can. lololol.

gooding for secret agents n spies.. leave no fingerprints behind yo 

^ wtf, really? good info..... hw it possible to boom??

are you sure it is coming tomorrow???
lol.................

wah delayed again ah? D: i think mine's gonna be delayed till CNY too liek that T_T

one easy OC button... i presss, nothing happen?? need inst thing?

What do you expect it to happen? Turn into an Alienware? /troll

Get CPU-Z and see if your frequency or core speed increases.

Recently, I found out that the game (FIFA 2011) will jitter while I'm playing it. What do you guys think about this?

cud be cpu throttling ... r u on throttlestop ??

did u turn on v-sync?? i realize that with that on, gpu usage around 20-25% , with that , 80%

hm, looking from a neutral stand point. Seller posting was dodgy with the lack of proper proof for the 16GB ram.

However shychenko, you responded rather badly. There's no point scolding him publicly. You'll appear as abusive and that automatically puts you in the wrong, no matter how dodgy the seller was. Especially in the mod's eyes.

And if the seller happens to see this post, the easiest way right now is to open up the laptop you're selling, take a photo of the hard drive, and post it up. Or if you sold it already, ask the buyer to verify your specs. But you are oh so dodgy...
