Yep it's an i7 740QM.

I don't really care, it's way more powerful than what I really need.

My Jr can't play NFS:HP 2010 unless it's at 1024x768 and with all settings lowered so far down it's gay.

I heard the 5730 offers some serious power, and when tasked with dual-monitor productivity work it should shine what with its 2GB of GDDR5 VRAM.

How much for the HP?

For one, I will not take any machines with nVidia due to my horrible experience with every single nVidia card in my hands.

I don't mind the HP, but they all have a tendency to 'rest on three legs'.

The rubber leg supporting the HDD is always somehow shorter than the other three, making the computer feel generally unstable and keystrokes are always met with an unsavoury shudder and rebound due to the lack of the 4th leg's support.

Hi guys,

How to reinstall win7 (clean installation).
Asus didn't provide win7 installer dvd with the laptop.

Thanks

mine came with win7 home premium preinstalled

How much do you think a 2ndhand A42JA cost today?

Hmm around there, for better graphics but less cores.

And that annoying one leg that NEVER rests on the surface, UGH.

Bought another laptop... 

yup... already got it last month actually... but got faulty on the first day, and send back for RMA... will get it soon either tomorrow or the next day... 

The very fact that they squeezed an i7 inside it makes the MBA looks pretty stupid.

A53SV = K53SV....the box also stated K53....

T_T" if i wait a bit more, i can get N53sv oredi...bought it RM2599

i5-2557M is a ULV proccessor, don't think it'll better than the i5-2410M in terms of performance, but it'll surely in terms of lower power consumption 

They do. 1 unit left. LOL.

OK I just updated my CCC to the latest version from Asus (under K42Jr).

Package 8.84

Anyone tried this and notice grainy response on darker grey colours?

If you mean my card, then yes. It is a HD5470.

Hmm where's the bro with the A42JA?

Mind helping me benchmark its battery life?

Laptops...Laptops... But now...

A little bit poison for me...

Hi,

I just bought a A43SV. I'm not really knowledgable in laptops but is it normal for Asus laptop touchkeys (not sure whether it's called touch keys. Basically, it's those 2 buttons below the touchpad) to make 'tak tak' sound when pressed. Previously, I had no problem with my Dell laptop. I think those buttons are rather hard. Any solutions to my problem?

On which power plan?

A43SV-VX053V VS A42JY-VX195V,
which one better if considering the price and spec? (just for normal daily use)

what is the best price for thee two laptops? (those who just bought it plz share, thx)

The A42JY should be quite a bit cheaper than the A43SV.

I've seen it retailing in Singapore (where I live) for less than S$1k.

Sim Lim Square. Something like your Lowyat Plaza.

A very large computer parts and computer retailer in general. DIY PC enthusiasts flock there all the time - because it's the only mall in Singapore which consists of 99% PC component retail stores.

If electronics and soldering stuff is your thing, then cross the road to Sim Lim Tower.
There they sell all kinds of stuff (speakers, car audio, component chips, parts, all your electronic barang barang like capacitors batteries and fans) and you can even pick up some San Ace fans for S$3.50

Hi guys im thinking of getting a N43SL . Any thoughts on this laptop? And where should i go in LYP to get it and what possible freebiez could i get out of it? I read awhile back someone got the ram upgraded to 8gb @.@ but i dont need that much i think. is it possible to get them to up the drive to SSD? 

Orchard Road.

Please do visit SLS

Oh yeah.. Maybe we can meet up when you come down.
Are WD Scorpio Black drives cheap in M'Sia?

I'm a Singaporean and I've never been there before so I'm not sure.

I want to replace the 500GB Seagay drive in my laptop.

What is the current exchange rate?

The best price here is S$97, which isn't cheap as well.

DAMNIT, I'M F**KING BROKE.

Just think SSD as HDD..
Your notebook can only fit one HDD, so its either SSD or HDD only..

Yes, naturally

Hi guys, currently I planned to get my first laptop after much consideration.
From the product guide i found this particular model : A53VSV-SX106V

Is this really a good buy? From the specs itself its really attractive and the shop offering me 2499 for it instead of 2699. Just wanna see if any users in LYN can give me some feedback regarding this model before i buy it.

Thanks

Nah, its not like i gonna blast music while in college , I have another headphone btw.

btw, is that Bang and Olufsen speaker that nice? I am more to desktop speakers rather than portable speaker.
