QUOTE(lonelywolf90 @ Feb 24 2011, 09:22 AM) 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 =( No, core i7 2720QM is require upgrade, unless u could find some OEM Reseller from eBay with cheaper price but ur own labour installing and repasting.

Sigh, having a nice ASUS lappy with 2720QM will be too costly that I might turn to Sagers instead..
I loved the stealth jet design so much but the upgrade is just not worth it after I see the upgrade cost for the Sagers.
Headache @_@

depends. you need that performance boost from 2630 > 2720 so much? Imo its down to whether you're willing to cut back on some power for the design, and for me the power is enough. even on the 740qm.

Ya ya, G73 still rocks mad!! =) Anyway,I hope the G74 may hav Optimus enabled though I tink it wun b possible. Surely,I highly suspect that the G74 may be equipped with the 6970 since no GTX560m is available until 3rd quarter of d year..
DoubleU,yes I nid the performance boost due to my work on video edit and converting. Plus,I do use softwares like Photoshop,AUTOCAD etc for my dad once in a while, so it's essential to me XD
Not forgetting PCSX2,the performance boost would be vital if I wan to play games like God Of War 2 =x

Well I hope that they don't change the design of G74 because the current designs are really awesome.

Attention to G53JW users, if u face some sudden shutdown issue, please check both of ur fans. There's a probability of the fan fail to spin and resulting the computer to force sudden shutdown. Please Take notice of this as some of the G53JW units are facing such issue.
