I think it's better for u guys to go Asus Service Centre or the shop u bought from and ask whether the sound and heat from the power adapter is normal anot.Coz I open my notebook 24/7 and yet I hear nothing.Plus I dont feel any extra ordinary heat from it

QUOTE(Higuain @ Nov 17 2011, 11:02 AM) u think they will replace a new one?? hmmm... dunno some ppl here say its due to heavy workload thus the power adapter become very hot when laptop is handling high demanding tasks such as gaming... normally it won't that hot la... haiz.. At least u will know what's the problem rather then wondering around. |

Just finished Need for Speed The Run.Amazed by the graphics and Frostbite engine.The sun glare,the details,sandstorms,the way u can interact with things on the street (lamp post,vase,pole and etc).But the game is quite short given that NFS series usually is quite long.It just took me a day to finish it.And why they even put in action sequence

QUOTE(Exandru @ Nov 23 2011, 12:22 AM) Been lurking this thread for 2 weeks already. Lol wat would happen if ur gf found out? (Had to make a new account so my gf wouldn't find out! sucks to be me lol) I'm looking for a gaming laptop which I can also use for work (I bring my laptop to work everyday) N55 looks sexy, but as I've read thru every pages, I noticed a lot of people having trouble here and there, so am quite skeptical. I also checked on MSI, but I am not familiar with the brand. Been using 2 Asus laptops in the period of 7 years, till present. 1 more, is the battle between - Do I need an i5 or i7? Depending on my needs/wants? I want to:- - be able to do a lot of multi-tasking - playing the latest games - good speakers/sound as I watch dramas/movies almost every night. *cough* tin coke *cough* - fast processing power - not to mind about the weight, used to carrying bag everyday - if its logical to not to spend more than RM3k for it @.@ I know if I want to ask for recommendation, I should go make a thread at Mob computing/post in a recommendation thread, but I chose to say it here, because I've done some comparison..only now I can't decide on which model I should get. Thanks in advance. Anyway,here's a piece of information from me since I'm quite free now Core i5 or i7?Ask urself.Do u really need the hyper threading?Core i5 is powerful enough to handle daily common task such as browsing or running Full HD videos.The hyper threading helps in various applications such as Matlab,VMWare,Autocad,Photoshop,Winzip,Winrar,Video decoding/encoding and a lot more.Nonetheless,the difference between 2 of them in terms of gaming is very minimal.U have to fork out around 800 bucks more for the core i7 and blue ray drive.If it's useful to u and u think it's worth,then Core i7 is the answer. As for build material,u have to go and feel it urself.It's hard to describe in words One thing u should take note.N55SF core i5 comes in HD+ resolutions with matte screen (1600 x 900) while the rest comes in HD resolutions (1366 x 768) with glossy screen? The sub-woofer is great in my opinion.Unless u wanna compare it with 2.1 or 5.1 speakers.It's portable and it gives good base. As for the weight,it's kinda heavy for N55SF so it's not good for portability.Btw,it comes with 2 USB 3.0 and 2 USB 2.0,which means 4 USB ports.This should be sufficient for ur devices. There is only 1 verdict besides all these good points.The cover lid.It's so fingerprint and dust magnet and easy to get scratched. Conclusion, for plus minus 2.7k,u get Nvidia GT 555M,Intel Core i5,free sub-woofer and 4 USB ports.I can say it's pretty much worth it This post has been edited by Duckies: Nov 23 2011, 02:37 AM |

QUOTE(Exandru @ Nov 23 2011, 12:06 PM) @Duckies This post has been edited by Duckies: Nov 23 2011, 03:37 PM» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Wah, thank you so much for your time brother! So, pertaining to your reply...(Warning: Wall of texts!) 1) My gf: Will snap and say "this money can buy me LV bag, or maybe a vacation on some island" and shit... 2) Core i5/i7: Yes, that is my issue here. I didn't know how this hyper threading and all that can be of any difference, not that literate. From your explanation, i5 is good enough for me already, as I do not use crazy softwares like AI,PSD,3DMax and stuff. And when you mention the difference is minimal in terms of gaming to have quite wrapped my concerns. 2A) Is this i5 able to withstand for the next 2-3 years if compared to i7? Because I don't spend a fortune on a laptop, so when I look for a replacement, it has to be able to serve me for at least 3-4 years. Currently using ASUS K40AB for 2 years and a half already. Still serving me quite please-fully but it has become obsolete when it comes to modern gaming. Daily common applications wont be that processor hungry so Core i5 definitely can last 2-3 years more.I am not sure about the graphic card though since the game development has been going in a very fast pace.Mayb it can last 2-3 years more if u lower the resolutions and settings. 3) I do not need a Blu-ray drive, because I already have a Sony PS3 to accommodate. But I don't know if it feels good to have a BR drive in a laptop. Sounds cool but not a need haha.. Tat's really up to u.I downloaded stuffs all the time.In fact I dont even need the Dvd drive.Kevin even took out the dvd drive and put in a hard disk. 4) Screen: I noticed that, but I have never experience 1080p on a small screen, so I can't tell. If there is a full HD w/ matte screen + Core i5, I think it's quite a bang for bucks. Then u have to go and see it for urself.See whether u prefer HD+ or HD and whether matte or glossy. 5) Sub-Woofer: This tin coke is so cool, read reviews and turned out to be a good addition. Put it on a flat surface, it will deliver. And I do NEED good pairs of speakers (If I couldn't I'll plug in PC Speakers up to my needs) This is also up to u.To me the speaker + tin coke is already good enough 6) Portability: I have no issues with weight. Good laptop bag makes no difference in terms of few hundreds of grams. 7) Fingerprint magnet: Well, my current ASUS also in black, and it's magnet of every single bad thing in life lol...i hate it. Need to always wipe and wipe. I don't know if N55 will make me cry again but, my future purchase has nothing much on the looks, only PERFORMANCE. Verdict: Do I finally need an i5 for current needs and able to withstand the next few years? Or is it worth it to invest more $$$ and get i7? EDIT: How is the feel for the keyboard? Just some review, I will look for the model at IT store and try it myself anyway. It feels good so far but the keyboard is not good for gaming.Not reflexive enough.I used an external keyboard for gaming. |

QUOTE(WallaceZai @ Nov 25 2011, 06:42 PM) Anyone experience low fps while gaming on N55sf? Even Dota i only get around 20-30 FPS when playing.. Definitely something wrong adi.My 2-3 years old notebook also can play Dota smoothly.Nvidia GT 555 can play current games with medium-high settings at HD or HD+ resolutions. |

QUOTE(love-ing @ Nov 29 2011, 01:11 PM) YES my laptop is in the service center now because of the same problem. It took a week for them to repair it.Sigh.. Duckies how long had u waited for the service? They change a new network card for you? QUOTE(areleave187 @ Nov 29 2011, 01:16 PM) Just finished Assassin Creed XD The game is a bit short compared to previous series...it ended at Sequence 9 Anyway,I heard a lot of complains about buzzing sound from speaker,game hang up or slow down and high temperature.Surprisingly I dont face any of them and I've finished holiday season games such as Modern Warfare 3,Battlefield 3,Assassins Creed Revelations,Rage,Need for Speed The Run and Saint Row 3.And I did constant gaming for 5-6 hours a day and yet I dont face high temperature or game hang up issues. I am using Cooler Master Notepal which is aluminium.Mayb it helps a bit in cooling.Oh,I am not in an air-conditioned room. |

Uncharted 3 was totally epic.Now I know why it got 10/10 from IGN.I used 2-3 days to complete the game.It was fun and exciting as usual.This time they made melee attack to be extremely useful.And u can throw back the bomb

Yes,u can do a dual boot with Mac OSX and Windows but not all hardware r compatible.I did it with my old Acer laptop.Succeeded in installing and boot in but no sound,no wifi and lagging condition.U used something call iBoot or Kalway to help u install the Mac OSX.
U can check hardware compatibility list here: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page This post has been edited by Duckies: Dec 1 2011, 06:11 PM |
