wooohh that cheap? will check it out later, thanks for the info bro

Hi guys,

Just a quick question here,

im wondering, did any of u guys used laptop cooler? (the big fan underneath thing)

Does it reduces the temperature?

So far i have no problems with the laptop, just wondering if i can improve cooling by using a notebook cooler.

All in "stealth" mode LOL

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

yeah i do, but im not sure if its really working to da max lol cuz i can barely feel the air flow..

maybe its because of me not playing games with heavy graphics lol

1.
-Almost the same specs but cheaper
-Not so flashy, look more professional
-Better looking (I guess)
-Cool palm rest
-Decent Graphics at a cheaper price


2.
-Build quality is not that good,
-Less brand recognition
-LCD is not that good
-No on site warranty

Personally i think i can live without 3D features, since not all games can be played in 3D in think.

furthermore, i just hate that 3D glasses...

Well if you go for looks plus performance go for VX7
but if you go for pure performance and a bit of looks go for G53.


These two are using the same chassis, but VX7 have lots of extra finishing for aesthetics department the problem is, the price...

actually its already good enough if you buy G53 and show off to people, they'll still say its a good looking laptop.


Theres not much difference in terms of performance, both are using the same graphics card. I think the only difference are graphics memory, ram, and maybe proc model (again, both are still using i7)

Personally, i think its better to buy G53sw, since gaming laptops wont last long with all the new graphics card and processors coming into the market rapidly...so to fork out lots of money for Vx7 is just not worth it i think..

like i said, the difference is video ram and memory ram...
the graphics memory for vx7 is 3gb ram, while g53jw is only 1.5gb ram.

Nah, eventhough its using modular cards, its not upgradable, but according to this guy, maybe we can upgrade the CPU..

confirmed upgradable features are RAM and HDD, others will remain as is i guess..

I heard that theres not much difference between GTX560m and GTX460m card other than higher clock speed..

overall it was assumed that both cards performs about the same range..albeit GTX560m is a newer or refreshed fermi chip

it could be caused by ambient temp,

currently its winter in perth, i can play games(Crysis 2, star craft, Warhammer)with temp less than 68 degree. Plus i also have the notebook cooler underneath
