Is the keyboard key spoiled or the entire keyboard spoiled?
I know how to fix keyboard key as I did it for 1 customer before. For entire keyboard, it is even easier.

If got 2 keys spoiled, I suggest you to get replacement of whole keyboard (RM100), because replacement of 2 keys are already around RM70.

Acer 4750G or 4830TG?
which one more durable and less overheat

I think both are about the same in term of durability.
Acer machines are well built nowadays, I have heard many complement of that.
Just choose the 1 which is more suitable for you.

1st issue, it all depends on luck... perhaps the HDD was damaged prior to purchase etc. Its common in all laptops, regardless of brand
2nd issue, whether a laptop overheats or not pretty much depends on the model of the GPU used, and ultimately the cooling system of the laptop  nod.gif
In general, Nvidia is better in a sense that they have more regular driver updates; whereas AMD is better in terms of power consumption
*
Agree+1
An gpu grade isn't a factor to determine the heat generated. Heatsink, vents and fans are crucial to a laptop cooling system and overclock ability.

Yeah true, so I could only get the one without full HD from garage sales seller here which would be about 3.1k. Dun need get the FullHD lo no choice LOL ~ no money le cant afford.


Added on July 4, 2011, 11:00 am

Yeah i know right, haha. We are on the same ship dude. U decided what to get yet? I mean which one has the higher probability in ur list?
I think now that's left is HP DV6 and N53SV i7. If i can get a good deal on the DV6 then I could get it, or else I think it will end with N53SV.
I enquired from Prince J on the Sager 5165 we'll see what he replies, but Sagers 17" are better I guess with Full HD. The warranty would be another issue though.
*
Yes you're right.
1600 X 900 is suitable for 15.6 inch. The only con is cannot watch FHD movie .
When goes for 1900 X 1080p, 17.3 inch is the best.

Sager NP5175 is one of the lightest 17.3 inch laptop, only about 3kg to 3.2kg. And the depth is the same as NP5165.

Sager warranty for machines sold under our trademark is served by us directly. We won't push you to contact Sager directly for warranty claiming.

does it come wif USB 3.0?

how's sager's heat management? currently using a compaq lappy about 3y old still going strong for normal office work and some light gaming but the only thing is the heat issue is sucky
*
Yes. NP5160-HM65 chipset with 2 USB 3.0.
The cooling design of this model is on the average. As long as you don't OC your laptop, it should be no problem at all.

For your budget, the best laptop will be that from Sager... But I doubt can pay via interest free installments  sad.gif
*
I know that only DELL offers 0% interest free installment.
The interest free installment will deduct 8 to 10% from the purchase amount which the seller receive.
Since hardware business margin is only 3 to 8%, this will result in real loss.

Anyone knows a good area in the Klang valley for me to check out some Asus laptops? Or perhaps even a Lowyat forum contact to purchase from?

Budget? Usage? Preferred screen size?
