i think the local non 3d g53sx comes with Full HD... since riku and bushi received theirs with Full HD screen.. prob a mistake in d advert.. the 3d version really comes with 1366x768 tho...

the g73sw has a 460m 192bit gpu , which is good for full hd gaming since theres more bandwidth to channel the data

the g53sx has a 560m 128bit gpu, got bottleneck at the bandwidth when u game at full hd.. but shines in lower resolutions..

but ive seen reviews/utube vids on the g53sx gaming at full hd.. seems quite ok for most games.. maybe ull feel the bottleneck when playing those games with highly detailed texture (crysis 1 and 2, battlefield 3, metro 2033) at 1080p, as there seems to be a linear correlation between high reso textures and memory bandwidth..

with the 560m128bit, normal textured games such as mafia 2 , dirt3, shud have similar FPS with the 460m192bit at Full HD

another thing to think about would be the size... g53sx is just abit smaller than an allenware m17x r3...lol.. if u dont mind abt the size then just disregard my last point haha...

can some 1 confirm the non-3D version really come with full HD screen?
if yes i gonna go n grab it icon_idea.gif rclxm9.gif

Yeah Riku's and my laptop both comes with fHD. Surprising really when i got it, was expecting only HD. Have to get used to small fonts but its so damn clear.

My GPU temp running on FurMark is around 85-87C, which i think it's good enough as im running it fullscreen with fullHD. tongue.gif CPU never above 80C. Still better than my previous BenQ. Play TF2 will get me around 113C on my ATi HD 4650

Wow what happen to.your screen. When I first turn on the screen it was blank for some time and I thought the screen is gone. Then I off it and turn on again and the screen is on again. Scare me out of shit. I will check on the things stated. Thanks all sifu. By the way I am coming from s42 benq. I find the sound very soft and low. Is it normal for g53?

yes, the motto strike in silence isn't just for fun brows.gif lol misread your post... soft speakers, try trustmeimlegit way. If that doesn't work, try a different mp3 or youtube video, sometimes its the file itself is lower volume

how's ur S42? mine half dead already, have to run on the intel card and the speakers gone already.

thx will try that out
my s42 also half way dead d. the battery spoilt d sad.gif . is no longer mobile anymore

Just got a Corsair 1333Mhz 4GB from Lowyat today.. Costed me RM62. 8GB is more than enough for now. I'm running 7 VMs at one go, still no lags yet. Utilizing around 4-5GB of RAM. heheheheh.

Checked the price for HDDs, really naik man. Oh, and there is one non-3D G53SX at Evernew outside AllIT mall.

told me this brand is better than kingston and that why so expensive

Guys, I know I posted this question b4 but I cant seem to understand it.

Specs:
Audio : Built-in Speakers And Microphone,EAX Advanced HD 5.0,THX TruStudio.

However there is nothing on the Control Panel nor any software to indicate this. So does this notebook actually have this feature ?

Or is it only applicable when your playing specific games that have this feature to enable it ??

go to start-> creative folder-> and u can find this option
i was like u when i got this laptop looking for this function
