G55 users!

do u know we have the up down left right keys and it has stop play back and forward

any idea whether we can use that for itunes?

sorry bro care to teach me a lil? cuz when i press it ,.. windows media keeps coming up instead

If devour has no units to sell where can I pick one up from, I want one today!

Mixing 1600 with 1333 ok or not? I know if you have a default as 1333, then add on a 1600 ram. The 1600 will underclocked itself to equalize itself with the 1333. Correct me on this.

But what about Mixing a default 4GB 1600mhz, with three 4gb 1333mhz rams?

sorry for the trouble

I'm more or less going to get the G55VW-S1095V but only after I get a change to see it first. Still no shops displaying the unit, .
I'll probably add in more ram, about an additional 4GB. I believe that the existing ram is 4GB 1600Mhz SODIMM, right? If so, no point getting slower RAM.
Any shops in Penang selling the 1600Mhz RAM for the Asus G55? I need to get some sort of receipt to claim for it.
Thanks,

If you're in Penang, you can check out Gadjetzone. The tech there says they have units available but are not displaying them as they are pushing the G53SX out first.

same looking fo it at shop and fail.

garage sales got.......corsair vegence price reasonable ....linglong or hikari selling

hmm ... still not able to do it using your steps ... it still tries to open wmc

ive tried disabling the wmp and wmc but when i press the function keys it tries to access the wmc but at least it says its restricted so it doesnt open up wmc anymore

ive tried googling and apparently suppose to install some asus software and then edit the keys inside the file or something which is kind of a hassle for me

but thanks for your effort anyway

Asus Hotkey driver ?

thats few brand- everki, targus, belkin, - you can get very nice bag which surely can fit for the g55, and price < 300

Hi Bro,
Saw this link for RAM.
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2210592/all
Hope it helps.
How much was your bag? Looks like a tight fit.

I dont think 8gb is enough for me    games wise, they are enough. Even 8gb for games could be an overkill. But i was using a 8gb ram before this. It didnt do well for my 3D modelling. Although for better and faster rendering, it depends on the CPU not the RAM. But when i put in alot stuff in one scene, with millions of polygons and textures, i'll need that extra ram to be able to keep all that in memory for faster processing. Hence the RAM comes in handy when i start to go crazy with stuff in one scene 

and thats a nice bag btw. I have a few bags at home that maybe i'll try to fit the G55 first. If none of them fit, or cannot even stretched at all. Then... i'll get those huge luggage backpack

my g53sx partially die on me yesterday

I guess it could be the software prob n i hope it so. My lappy monitor went black but could still listen to window 7 starting. Today just sent into lowyat asus service center but no technician there to troubleshoot on the spot, so much for a service center without a single technician zzzzz

Before the problem occurs, my gc driver was unable to be detect and automatically switch to standard graphic adapter n driver. I was shock to see when it happen, tried to rectify by dl back the nvidia gc driver and temporarily went back to normal. However on the next day, my monitor went black totally and could never shed out any more HD color to me zzzzzz. Anybody experience this problem before?

I'm suspecting bios n gc pproblem, but the reception staff at service center troubleshoot and says it OS problem. Oh man, I dont even have enuf time to back up. sighhhh

jz now receive a call from ASUS malaysia~~~ they already settle their side, now is waiting for the distributor n shop to pay me back the money~~

now very confuse , dunno wana choose which 1,
planning to buy G55, but very scare about asus product quality and after sales service~~~

becos no so kaya like u lo...
i m in considering G55-3D one...becos nw gt stock...but many ppl oso say tat no totally worth...make me struggle...haiz~

mayb lolz... coz nw feels like my current 15.6" laptop is abit small liao  XD

I almost bought an Alienware  M17x at the price of rm4000++ too. If im not mistaken, it was around rm4550. Manage to cut down to rm4300. I did call up Dell to ask about the warranty, since the dealer did provide me with a service tag to prove that it is not a refurbished unit. The dell person told me that it is not a refurb, but it is an overseas set. Overseas set warranty will be different than malaysia's warranty. If we purchased an AW here in malaysia, we'll get the Dell 1 year complete cover. But the overseas one is not fully cover. Hence no "standard hardware warranty" which i believe is the most important one. You can try and ask for the Service Tag and then check with Dell.

Also, m17x with HD resolution is really really horrible. I actually went to mid valley, there's a store that is displaying a m17x unit. I checked the FHD resolution, damn nice. Then went to screen resolution and change to HD... those that uses FHD will know how i feel..

anyhow, AW is still a good laptop. Think things through la k
I already feel that my soon to come G55 is too big  couldnt even find a backpack to fits it. Damn.

same spec v G53, but 17 inch n have beautiful light~~
now still waiting for the money ~~n  he left 1 unit only~~~ i think im not going to buy this~~

already contacted bro gadget guide regarding the G55
hope i can get it a.s.a.p

Very well, then we'll ask Iylia to prove the G55VW can fit a Full Size SSD and Full size Hard disk without sacrificing ODD. If he shows a G75VW, u know what happens next.

http://rog.asus.com/111562012/g-series-lap...vision-full-hd/

Hi..I Plan to Buy G55 for my university since i have no laptop..so far is this good?

Has anyone try G55 with Diablo III? I saw a few sites reporting that it has very bad performance with Diablo III

Yes I saw his thread in rog forum and also battlenet forum. It got me worried since I've already ordered G55. Thanks for the assurance.

By the way, what settings you're playing on?

really dunno y they built that msata at there n when access will void the warranty... NO POINT!!!!
buat kerja lebih n bazir material~~zzz....really geram v that~~
