HP/Toshiba Qosmio has 3D.

i am thinking to get the G73SW/17/8gb but the GPU is abit lower end at GTX 460M, worth getting if it's around rm3.8k??

or should just get the G74SX straight??

get the g74sx if u can

its gpu is abt 10-15% faster than the 460m

Think they would come out with a G55 instead?

The product sheet in CES did mention a 15.6" screen version of the new G-series.

thanks but was thinking if can save rm500 the gpu not really affect if using photoshop alot?

Depends on photoshop installed plugin, if u install hardware accelleration patch then u'll get slightly performance depending if ur gpu is supported. Most of the time, it rely on CPU, RAM, HDD for scratch disk.

my laptop battery light now orange colour all the time when i charge. it can detect got battery but no charge at all. may i know why? is it got some problem?
if not plug in the adapter, the battery light will glittering in orange colour

Try unplug and re-plug the battery to see if it will charge up. Its a common Windows something show not charging sometimes. Normal the battery indicator wil turn orange if battery is charging.

am not sure why my g53 with 460m randomly freeze ~500ms in Windows/in game. Any idea why?

im using latest nVidia drivers.

try having ur msi afterburner and check if there frame drops. If there is it could be throttled.

I observed cpuz and indeed got throttled..was installing something and CPU randomly dropped to ~800Mhz so i assume that's the reason laggin my game? is there workaround? or just waiting new updates from Asus?

hmm strange..my HP dv6 sandy-i7 +6770m never face this issue tho.

can i use the asus pick-up & return service at your door step services if i live in subang area?

google asus g53 throttlestop

Will it be release as G55 or G54?

anyway i am reformatting now..it is asking for drivers on first setup screen..not sure which drivers should i load? I tried 'Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver' but unable to install..

At this rate, seems like a G55 since the exhaust is different from the G74.

looks the same as the G74 to me, only the sides abit different

Looks nice! I love the separated arrow keys

Looks like its going to be even harder to take apart. Judging from the keyboard is likely attached.
Anyway, they designed it slimmer this time. We'll see more HQ photos surfacing soon.

at least they are not integrating the battery... yet...

@jeffery, yea good to see redesign of keyboard layout, but i wonder if the casing is bigger. I only have about one half cm on either side of my keyboard... and the keys on the video look about the same size...
