i think it should be software related.. since u said that everything was fine before u reformatted..

maybe u forgot to install something important..

if u game at high to ultra settings @full HD ,the 128bit 560m will not perform well because of the bottleneck in the memory bus.. and u cant change the gpu cuz its not yet possible (reverse mxm slot in the g53sx, soldered gpu for the g74sx)

however, it does well at medium to high settings.. ive game tried crysis 1 n 2 , witcher 2 n metro 2033 , battlefield 3 at 1080p.. very playable at an avg of 30-40fps

difference in the two models would be the size obviously, the g74sx is huge... performance between the two is virtually the same...

the g53sx comes with full HD screen.. if im not mistaken the g74sx bbk comes with a reso of 1600x900..

when gaming, the g74sx is more silent at full load, some say u can barely hear the fans.. and the temps never go beyond 70C even with a massive overclock

the g53sx at full load, u can hear a bit of a whine from the gpu fan.. but its not that loud and annoying.. gpu temps after overclock can go up to 82-83C .. depending on ur ambient temp.. ive never seen it go past 85C

also, the keyboard of the g53sx has a bit of a flex if u type like a hard azz mofo... the g74sx keyboard is better...

lastly, if u want to install some ram or SSD or HDD, its too easy for the g74sx.. just unscrew and pop the back panel.. but with the g53sx, its way more complicated... need to open ur keyboard, palmrest, then can open the back panel

hope this helps

for the g74sx.. the gpu is soldered onto the mobo itself. therefor not possible to change it

for g53sx.. the gpu uses a reverse mxm slot, i think only asus uses reverse mxm.. while other manufacturers use normal mxm !! therefore, u cannot just get a normal mobile gpu and put it in the g53sx cuz its in reverse.. ur best bet would be to hope that asus releases the nex g53 model with the same chassis with reverse mxm slot and a more powerful gpu.. then only u can swap

some epic facepalm decisions from asus right there.. reverse slot and crippled gpu...

good if u want to have more battery life when unplugged

ur bluetooth cannot on? or cannot connect wif u devices

oredy update driver?? restart pc??

try update ur bluetooth driver 1st... the link can find in asusrog forums...

if that doenst work... uninstall the driver thru device manager, restart ... haha...

srrry brah... nothing else i can think of... worst comes to worst, just change the blue/wifi card...

i hate the stock wifi card... the atheros one.. sometimes the signal will drop...

play crysis 2 with ur OC for at least 2 hours straight

if it doesnt crash/gpu clock reset/artifact

means u r 100% stable

i say 2 hours because i tot my OC was stable for gaming. but after 1 and half hours.. the screen flashed to black n gpu reset to stock clocks

if the above symptoms dont occur.. then push more..


**if u really really want to push ur 460m, u need to mod ur vbios to run on 1v voltage... this will prob get u to the mid 800s (at the expense of more heat + instability)

ummmm most of the 460m that ive seen run below >90C

try playing with stock clocks and see ur temps...

Added on December 29, 2011, 5:41 pmi hate that driver... lol... i didnt get that error but it made my battlefiled 3 crash..and crash my OC ...

using beta 285.79 now... stable for battlefield 3 ... but crashes MW3.. really2 wtf....


my fav driver is 280.26 .. but battlefield 3 crashing on that..

i also tried the 290.xx driver... this is even worse.. hard lockups in b3 , skyrim... followed by looping audio BRRRRRR

i feel the older drivers more stable man.. 280.26

srlsy...

wtf nvdia drivers so many problem...

if bios dont have...

maybe u can try disabling it thru device manager

Yes matte n fhd. Yes most can high but some like witcher 2 n metro 2033 and b3 need to play in medium otherwise not smooth.

It is slow when u overload the gpus memory bus with ultra-high textures

hahah... this question abit tricky...

i suggest u search around asusrog forums n notebookreviewforums to get a feel of the problems that occur

so far, my only complain wud be the wifi card... sometimes the signal drops..

for wow and star wars , yes

but for SC2.. ultra + 1080p will probably lag abit.. unless u lower ur resolution

most users here add until 8gb

u can also ask the shop to do it for u, if they provide such kind of services

bro.. have u tried reinstalling the webcam driver?? should be inside the driver cd that came inside the box

the 3d one has more ram, bluray, 3d glasses, 120hz screen, glossy screen, hd+ resolution

yes.. BF3 is playable in 3d , but u have to turn off some of the features for smoother gameplay..

yup.. it is good enuf

and theres always overclock if u want more frames..

i noticed u got the ICD thermal ... u shud see lower temps than most of us here..

cheers!
