ya thats good. Don worry 55sf works fine

ya they don know a danm thing about this@@. I called them this afternoon and i was the first one to file a complain for nx5sf series=.=

i called them this afternoon. They told me that=.=. Btw, tmr i will be going kl asus service centre along with my laptop. Gonna show them this problem and see how they solve.

I will try my best for one to one exchange i guess. Exchange for N55sf i guess. xD Btw, if let's say they do give one on one exchange, they should give a remarks or a letter or something right? So we can go to the dealer and change(i doubt they have stock in service centre)

agree lol

lol. Don later when we enter they call police thought we wana riot lol

Gonna turn in now. Tmr need to wake up early for bus xD

LOL. Sorry guys, i just got home. My home is just too far away from KL.

Anyway, just now Me and KongorJr went to the Asus service centre. When we turn up then we demanded a on spot checking (i told them i came all the way from Muar just to get this problem checked). We told him about this gpu issues, about how gpu tends to underclock itself when it is stressed. And we told them that other N55SF(i5) with the same spec doesn't encounter this problem. And it seems all the N45SF is encountering this problem. So they took my laptop to the back and test(honestly the guys serving outside the counter doesn't seems to know anything about computer@@). So we waited for like 20 to 30 minutes. Then some technician guy turned up from behind with my laptop. Then he asked me to tried again see whether it lags or not. So we tried and it is still laggy(although it seems to be a bit better). Then the guy said he updated my directX and also flashed my bios. But then the problem still persist. And we were the first N45SF users to turn up with this problem. They cannot decide whether its hardware problem, or bios problem or what causing the gpu to underclock itself. So in the end KongorJr left his laptop there for them to run tests. He said they will need to run some test to determine the source. So in the end, i guess the only thing we achieved today is at least Asus know about this problem and offers us a good solution of this problem. So now we wait the service centre to call up KongorJr and offers us a solution.

go have my dinner first

well to be honest, the counter guys really dunno anything. When me and KongorJr shows them our laptop, his expressions is like :"is this Asus laptop". But the guy from the back seems to know what he is doing. He came out and tell us he know the problem(underclocking) but he can't seems to be able to give a good explanation of why it underclock itself. Salute the technician. He said he flashed my bios and update to latest DirectX.


but one thing i noticed, i don know what other things he did, but since i booted up my laptop, i notice my GT555M is running@@. Unlike other times, it remain dormant unless we open games or what. Now my GT555M is running@@

The technician also showed us the MSI afterburner and comment on the graph. At least he know what he is doing and he seems to be pretty experienced.

I dunno what he did to my laptop coz he was back there working and we couldn't enter.

@duckies he said he flashed the mobo bios. True enough my bios is now version 212

no it didn't say. Coz usually i open up hardware monitor, it won't shows gt555m until i run some games or what. But now it is showing and the card is like 49 50 degree like that.

ya really appreciate. Thats what a technician should be. Not like the one i encounter from Acer

@lee sifu yes the intel HD still there in device manager.

this is the graph of assassin's creed brotherhood. Better than before actually

lee sifu where to change? In nvidia control panel?

I see, now downloading nvidia system tools.

btw, normally when i open up hardware monitor i cannot see my GT555M there. Only if i run games or something that uses the GT555M only GT555M starts showing up in the hardware monitor. But when i turn off the thing that runs GT555M, then the gt555m will disappear from hardware monitor also


ok ok, hang on, posting now

@lee sifu, i'm downloading nvidia system tools. Sounds like it can use to change the clock speed and all. What should i do with it? try overclock or something?

A problem with this model of laptop, i don really know where to place the fan of my U2 to cool it@@ The vent is so small@@. Anyone can pinpoint which vents is for which hardware?

ya lol i'm a Muarian. Muar signature dish? Must try otak-otak. Don trust otak otak u bought from other places. Only Muar one are the pure one

installing nvidia system tools

@lee sifu, how do i change the clock speed and all in nvidia system tools? This thing kinda confusing@@

err i dunno how to take screenshot also@@. The things danm weird. I mean the system monitor. But the control panel only add something unrelated
