afag, a SB 2630QM is on par with an i7 920XM, imagine the cost that you saved to obtain such processor power. However, if you are not patient enough, u can jz go for the 1st gen i7's.

Lol, u wouldn't have to tell us that you have a collection of 'ahem ahem' XD

riku, I thought using a vacuum especially household types are not advisable?
After all,the electrostatic produced by vacuum could be harmful to the system.
Please advise.

owh, then its a worth to wait..
thanks

I wonder why Asus didn't equip their weapon with GTX 470m/485m GPU.
Is it coz heat problem?

Thanks for watching my review. 

It is a stereo speakers.

The sound quality is considered good in that form factor. However, I still recommend you to get a decent 2.1 or 5.1 speakers for home theater set up as this tiny speakers will cost you very much too. If I'm not mistaken, RM210 at Malaysia.

Added on February 21, 2011, 5:26 amDang it. My notebook has a problem again. This time is speakers (audio) problem.

The problem details as follow:

1. When I was watching some YouTube videos. suddenly the speakers went MAD as it produced annoying high pitch sound which scared the shit out of me as it happened suddenly. At first, I ignored it and assumed that it would be something wrong to the vid.

2. Few hours later, the sound appeared again while I was listening to my songs. That scared the shit out of me too as it came out of sudden. Dang it!

What do you guys think is wrong with this notebook.

damage wires to the speakers. possibly.

All's not well in hybrid solid state storage land, as owners of Seagate's Momentus XT are facing serious issues with their drives -- despite glowing initial reviews, a number of long-term users claim that the drives chirp, crash, stutter, and freeze with alarming regularity, particularly when installed in a Mac. Seagate forumgoers speculate these are symptoms of the XT's magnetic platters spinning down inappropriately, due to an overzealous power management scheme. That's the bad news -- and it sounds pretty bad -- but the good news is this: Seagate's owning up to the issues, and is actively involved in getting them fixed. So far, a pair of new firmware updates have addressed some symptoms, a third is on the way, and a Seagate engineer known only as STX_NB is proactively chatting with affected customers about possible fixes. That's what we call technical support -- take notes, tech companies.

Nope. This problem didn't pop up when I used the Razer Ferox.

I'm thinking now how exactly I messed up with the driver? 

The plug-and-play Razer Ferox can mess up the sound driver?

But some say that even if it's not connected to any power cords anymore, it still has some charges in the system. Therefore, static shocks might occur and would damage the system gradually.

Do you guys wear any anti-static strap or something like that while cleaning the pc?

By the way, riku, can u elaborate more by what you meant from

'Heat issue and the bomb value of the GPUs.'

I'm interested also why ASUS never decide to use a slightly better GPU like 470M when it is almost the same as 460M.

Thanks Riku for the explanation =)

Yes,I've heard of the heat issue from 480m before, it's quite exaggerating when I found out. I remember I saw a video advertisement before that teases Fermi GPUs with extreme heat issues, haha.

I do know that Nvidia is always more expensive than ATI Radeons which have similar performance but it seems to me that many people stick to Nvidia for stability reasons, isn't it?

Somehow,I still prefer the 460M as compared to the 5870 XD

Since the 460M is balanced, a 470M isn't balanced?
Both the 460M and 470M do share the same TDP after all..

Well,470m is a lot more expensive than the 460m?
With the slight bump in performance than the 460m,it shouldn't be isn't it?

But you're right,definitely the amount of copper to be used will be more in 470m.

Thanks for the explanation.

Now, is there going to be any ASUS gaming laptops that will stock with the 2720QM instead of the entry 2630QM?
Upgrading is just costly =(

So I heard that the new ROG G74 is being showcased in the next CeBIT. Anybody got any info on it?

OMG i just ordered my G53JW-A1 from cubehub hopefully will not have the fan problem T.T

if fan stop spinning
then do what?

Haha must send to asus service centre I tink since we most probably can't do anything about it

How do we check whether the fan is spinning or not?
