guys, very soon I'll be joining you all as the owner of an Asus N series laptop. just wanna double confirm with you all, what is the maximum memory capacity can be upgraded in N53SV? Is it 8GB or 16GB? I read few specs online including the one from Asus web page itself but confused with it.

QUOTE(retsmot @ Apr 6 2011, 12:32 AM) i use gpu observer by orbmu2k, and coretemp. both widgets. yea, i also installed that one, but do you realize that when you turn on that gadget, the system automatically switches to GT540M? sometimes it even switches few times for a period of time. the LED will turn blue then white then blue and goes on...@trance so its confirmed drop priced ah? is that normal? |

QUOTE(Trance4eva @ Apr 11 2011, 12:27 PM) Nope cause its soldered to the motherboard. Only for certain laptop can be upgrade how can it be determined that a laptop's GPU can be upgraded? like in what specific range of laptops can be done so? |

QUOTE(AsusFans @ Apr 17 2011, 01:43 AM) I went to digital mall just now to have a look at NS3SN, the flex keyboard was indeed quite annoying to me....Not very good because the outlook looks so solid, but the keyboard is "fragile" it's the matter of getting used to it. in the beginning, i also find it quite "disturbing" in the sense that seeing the keyboard flexing when you are typing. |

QUOTE(rjedeleon @ Apr 18 2011, 03:09 PM) got my ASUS N53SN from PC Fair last saturday for 3399: not considered to be expensive, since got upgrade RAM to 8GB. any other free gifts given? btw, what laptop bag do they provide with N53SN?i7-2630QM GT-550m 8GB(I upgraded from 4GB) 640GB(5400 RPM) - they don't allow upgrade  Very happy on my purchase ,, will post here if I experienced any problem or comments...Added on April 19, 2011, 1:05 am QUOTE(shredder @ Apr 18 2011, 10:06 PM) dont blame the laptop itself. its just a machine. its all depends on the user too. some of them did not read the manual and start complaining this and that. i wonder why lots of user think the laptops are the problem. i've been using my n53sn for almost a month but theres nothing much to complaint. all i can say is it really serve me well. totally agree with you. sometimes it's not the laptop which is problem, gotta depend on the way the user handle the laptop as well. i've been using my N53SV for almost a month as well, no complains at all so far. to tell the truth, it NEVER hanged not even once since the first turn on of the laptop till now. i've got total of 12 games installed with each one of them running 100% fine with high graphics, microsoft office 2010, trend micro anti-virus and those usual web-browsing programs. defragmented once so far. all i can say is, i'm very satisfied with the performance of this laptop so far.
