that was months ago. I'm just gonna re-finance and see if G74 will be worthy my money.

I can't see 3D throught the glasses, i still the red/green color interlaced even with the glasses. Though i dun feel headache about it.

Around 5k at least. But shipping to MY might take some time. Asus G53 speaker sounds is decent/soft from most NBR complains. Nor M15x. most ppl would opt for Amp/External Sounds card.

good luck.

Afterburner? Why spend cash on customizing it while Alienware already provided u without the lighting fx customization?

Asus is keeping some secrets about G74.... No teaser till now.

G74 is the latest and un-release model yet.

Advantage over G73SW:
Maybe Better Graphic Card - GTX 560M ( Raw performance over GTX 460m still not sure)
Change of Vent Design, probably cooler than G73.
One lock to access the back panel.

Disadvantages(Personal Opinion) :
Back vent looks like lambo car vent instead of stealth fighter.
Still the same additional ram slots beneath keyboard.

Wrong place dude, this is ROG/Gaming Performance ones. There's another Asus thread.

DoubleU got it from GenTechPC(Ken), No tax imposable to computer parts/laptop.

I have to agree with Pewufod. Performance gap is not big. G73 weight is considerately better than alienware.

It depends on how long has it been used and condition. Usually would be 4k to 4.5k for 1 year usage. Its up to u to put the price though.

Ignore that dude, reply his offer is unreasonable.

A1,A2,A3(Backpack and mouse bundled) ones will be 2 years global.
XA1(No Backpack & mouse bundle) with the X will be 1 year global.

and G53SX will be available before G74SX outs.

In Brief:
G53JW - Core i7 1st Gen & GTX 460M
G53SW - Core i7 2nd Gen & GTX 460M
G53SX - Core i7 2nd Gen & GTX 560M

I would say wait for benchmark first. GTX560M and GTX460M performance may differ by 2-3% unless nVidia did something awesome inside.

Haven't announce yet. Wait for official announcement first. What's the hurry, derp.

Oh, they drop the price ehh? I guess they got competition from ppl importing Sager or getting Alienware from Dell MY.

I would say most ppl who wanted so called fancy "Gaming Laptop" would opt for Alienware, those who knows value for hardware would opt for Sager. While, for Asus... Uh... its somewhere between the design and the hardware.

Well, Processor Performance gap still not that wide. The only thing that separated HM55 and HM65 is the Sata 3(6Gbps) support.
Asus did not allow Intergrated graphic switching in bios either.

If u have 7.5k ringgit budget, and u will remain in malaysia for the next few years. then dell alienware.
if ur going overseas for study, why not asus for its international warranty.

G74 Promo video is up.
GenTechPC has G74SX/G53SX up for pre-order.

FYI, Reseller claims G53SX will be using glassless 3D panel.

HD5870M still pwns both GTX 460M, and GTX 560M.

FYI, GTX 560M is a better performer on some DX10, Most DX11 games. HD5870m still performs well on DX9, some DX10 games.

However, GTX 560M may have higher overclockability potential according to NBR feedback.

No, only 1 HDD and RAMs by default.

Checked out one of the "Asus" Store in Midvalley yesterday, they can order it for u but u have to pay RM500 as deposit. Was thinking if G53SW-3DE will be a good choice. LOL.
