" add in different kind of brand name such as kingston DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM price to my asus n53sn"  what do you mean by price??? Anyway by default the RAM is by Elpida. Adding a diff brand is ok as long its DDR3 and same MHz for better performance

This review is for the desktop le Anyway, i tried AC Brotherhood with the new driver....and i can't really max out everything or else there will be a bit lag. I have to scale down a little to get it real smooth. Still i can enjoy AC Brotherhood with great graphics....wonder how would the old driver performed.

hmm, just wondering what cooler pad do u guys use for your n53 series? the vents are at the back, middle to bottom right?
i read bout the zalman nc2000, and i'll quote it " If the cooling fan(s) on your laptop rely on a bottom-mounted exhaust port, this cooling stand will interfere with your computer’s ability to cool itself."
ok the bolded part i don't really understand.

well i recover windows to first partition only and uninstall some bloatwares! Just to ask, is there any "must install bloatwares"? Like the asus live update that is really useless and slow cpu down? Do give me some suggestions and i dun think i have any fn keys probs after uninstalling the bloatwares
