QUOTE(blue16 @ Jan 16 2011, 06:59 PM) lol obviously duh... SB power consumption is lesser than the 1st Generation i7, and i guess they must have done something to H65M chipset. Still its unclear if intel solved the slow SSD(power save mode) speed on H55M chipset.i think the advantage of the SB is the battery life as in the performance is enuff for me oledi =D  |

QUOTE(DoubleU @ Jan 16 2011, 11:13 PM) Sorry, the GX660. i5 something something.... HD5870m GDDR5 so... nearly the same performance, better on older games, dx9/10 not 11... 1229USD... so... slightly cheaper Its GX660 without Raid.2 screen setup, laptop + external monitor display? When i switch to desktop its gonna be something like that AW prototype 5760 x 1080 screens.. or just some ultra high resolution (2560x something?), maybe a 30" dual screens?  i can dream big.15.6" HD AMD HD5870m 1GB GDDR5 i5-450M 4GB DDR3 500GB 7200rpm DVDRW USB 3.0 Priced around $1229 USD. MSI GT680R with Core i7 2630M/GTX 460M/dual 500gb raid. priced 1499. Will Asus G53SW beat that price? or slightly higher? QUOTE(Jeffrey1987 @ Jan 17 2011, 02:10 AM) Just buy it! Don't think too much. As long as the notebook suits your demands, then it is OK. Yes, i've been waiting to join for quite some time... but still it isn't the right time yet.

XoticPC’s G73JW features some FxLighting like Alienware.
  Keyboard Lighting.  Customized Heatsink Block for GTX 460M.  XoticPC charges $45 for the GeForce GTX 460M’s 20% overclock. Unlike user-applied overclocks, this one is guaranteed stable and backed by the seller.  |

QUOTE(Jeffrey1987 @ Jan 23 2011, 09:07 PM) There are some people who asked me to customized the rear lighting effect at exhaust fan there after warching my backlit keyboard mod vid at my YouTube channel . . . LOL! I was hoping to pick up 1 by end of feb or early march.Maybe a G73JH refurbished with extended 2 years warranty as Asus Ceased to use high end AMD GPU(Must be Nvidia pay them to use more Nvidia GPU) to do all the possible mods. but still I'm gonna see how it goes with G53SW announcement/availability. Maybe the extra cash might go into investment for better gears like Alienware orion backpack + LCD for secondary display as i just scrapped my 2011 desktop plan.

Most laptop will not be recommended to overclock. If ur so interested in overclocking, go get a desktop.as i not yet buy. but planning to get now. hopefully within this few day, i will purchase it |

QUOTE(RaidMax @ Jan 31 2011, 09:45 AM) Thanks for the info ^^. Most probably getting it in singapore since i can personal go and buy from there instead of shipping from US. Nope, there won't be GST Tax Imposed. Consult your seller for definite Information Integrity regarding the payment and tax as well as the bundled.Another question, if i buy from singapore and take it back to malaysia with me do i need to pay the GST tax ? |
