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
*
Things will render slow(a bit) as the bus width is bottlenecking at start game.

But it's better than n55 and msi 620 and hp dv6
*
DV6 uses AMD, N55 uses GT555m. Both are on par iinm. There is a refresh of DV6, i heard performance improved but i'm not too sure if it will overpower GTX 560M yet.

Sounds good. For 4k range this is the best choice ?
*
I suppose so. There's competition from HP DV6 and Sager.
Sager is better for upgrade GPU and accessibility to clean the internals.

None? The DV6's GPU is only an equivalent of the GT555M.

The rebadge may have some performance boost. Haven't seen the review yet so far.

i reinstall the webcam driver as provided in the asus website.... after downloaded it showed the driver is lifeframe.... after reinstall still the same.
Driver CD came inside the box? The box come with the laptop dont have any cd.... all software pre-installed in the laptop already..

I was wondering is it anything disconnected when the computer shop staff help me to upgrade my laptop to 8gb Ram...
Is there any other solution which i can try out ?  or the only solution is send to service center.... Zzzzz
*
If the Shop Staff did snap anything when trying to upgrade the ram for u, the first thing u would realize is the backlit and the keyboard will not work.
The driver cd does comes in the box. Just that, the win 7 dvd is not included.

This is what is availabl in my box package when i unbox it.

Yeah the box come with the cd. However there is only lifeframe 3 in the cd, no driver for the webcam?
The lifeframe 3 when i on it, it showed that the webcam is used by other software. =.=||
Everything is working fine except that the webcam is not shown in the device manager ( i dont even have the imaging device tab ).

Does that means that my webcam is spoilt so that windows is unable to detect it. As if the webcam got no problem, it will auto install the device right?
*
There could be 2 possibility.
1. Webcam ribbon is loose.
2. Webcam is not working from beginning.

Depends on individual. Current G53SX is my second Asus laptop. My First Asus was 3 years 4 months ago, it was a Z99JR and it has a hinge issue whereby the laptop cover cracks on the left hinge side but hardware wise, everything works fine including the ATi Mobility Radeon X2300.

CES 2012 is drawing close. Should we be anticipating new G Series from Asus or GPU Change/upgrade?

There aren't any rumors on new ROG so far. Most likely it will either be a GPU refresh or Official announcement for Naked-Eye 3D.

guys, i think my G53SX got real prob here. the screen seems faulty, not that there's no display at all but the color is somehow weird

what do you guys think it is? faulty GPU or loose cable or anything? my laptop is only a couple months old  cry.gif
damn, im outstation right now. cant bring the laptop to service centre
anyway, where's the Asus service centre in KL?

The desktop icon look ok. But could u provide proper print screen instead of camera shot?

QUOTE(xxxcriminal @ Jan 7 2012, 10:07 PM)
ya...fn+ f3 n f4 no display on screen and no function at all
when i click on the shortcut key got display on screen...., the light on upper 4 button> power,light,performance button, n mode button's light can on n off......
but keyboard light also no function
*
Perhaps u could open up ur keyboard and check if the LEDs are present. (I can't be too sure)

QUOTE(beeenn @ Jan 7 2012, 10:18 PM)
As expected, its hardware prob. But im wishing its just a loose cable. But wait for 3 weeks? Damn, i cannot wait that long. Only have 2 weeks holiday leave *sigh*
*
That leaves u no choice but to RMA.

QUOTE(xxxcriminal @ Jan 7 2012, 10:25 PM)
wait for 3 week if all things become ok is fine...
but now im waiting for 3 week, display ok already, n keyboard problem.....walau....really cannot accept that!!!
before send to center, the keyboard light is ok... now become like that.... doh.gif  doh.gif  dunno how they do their work 1..... vmad.gif
*
I guess one of u need to work as a Asus Technician. nod.gif
That would assure us as ROG users has a proper RMA-ed laptop.

@riku beeen previously posted a screenshot, everything was normal.

@xxxcriminal, still abit suspicious of the driver, cause if the lights are spoilt, then the fn + f3 thing should show something on the screen. Test the keys individually? maybe not the lights spoil, its the keyboard?

beeen edited his post and swapped the print screen with camera shot picture.

That's possibly means the LCD or the Ribbon is at fault.

Hi. I am really interested in asus rog laptops. I wanted to buy the g53sx 3d version. I just want to ask if asus will be upgrading this series, i.e. put in newer gpu such as the gtx580m in the near future. If not, i would really want to buy the current g53sx with gtx560m gpu... Thanks in advance for any useful replies...
*
It would be a slim chance for GPU upgrade. Asus uses a reverse MXM, as opposed of Sager/MSI/Alienware.

QUOTE(trustmeiamlegit @ Jan 8 2012, 01:28 PM)
veryvery slim chance... asoos is more into the mid-range gaming market segment.... its highly unlikely that they will equip the g series with a top brass gpu ...

the nex iteration of the g53/74 shud be using the 6xx series gpu.. and i have a feeling they'll put in mid range 6xx gpu instead of the higher end 6xx gpu...

well, take what i said with a pinch of salt as there has been no official statement yet regarding future g series laptops.. who knows asoos might have a change of heart as their competitors (msi, aw, sager) have shown to be able to equip their laptops with the best gpu in its class..
*
That would depends on the Asus Marketing & R&D decision if they could come out with something to back ther G-Series reputation to current competitor pressure.

hello~

reporting to the club, bought my G53 on 5/01

been satisfied so far and no complain other than the screen seem to bright for my eyes, even when the brightness adjusted to low. maybe need to get gamer's eyeglass later.

do you guys got any good ROG theme for win7? the default asus theme is a bit lame~
*
It white color is bright coz its LED backlit.

QUOTE(maf1a @ Jan 10 2012, 11:57 AM)
can anybody give me your experience with the g53sx-s1208v?
and anybody buy from evernew before? how is their after sale service?
usually how long does asus take to fix the laptop?

hope anybody here can help me
*
Depends on your luck, if ur laptop has some hardware fault in few months then u would have to go for RMA like xxxcriminal.

QUOTE(xxxcriminal @ Jan 10 2012, 12:16 PM)
mine 1  g53sx-s1208v...
buy 1 n half month.. send to center to change motherboard n graphic card, wait for 3 week,
then when get back the laptop, the key board no back lite.. need to send back again....

I supposed it is solved by now?

QUOTE(alip_11 @ Jan 10 2012, 06:10 PM)
buy Asus g53 or Sager NP8130.. spec almost the same.. price also..  hmm.gif

NP8130 GTX 560M provides better performance, CES 2012 is on going, most product is going for GT/GTX 6xxm Series.

I'm not sure how u download your drivers, Nvidia has 2 option to choose before download driver.
1. Select the Product type, Product Series, Product, OS, Language.
2. Let them auto detect your graphic card via GPU Analyzer in the BF3 Are you geared up for BF3?

Added on January 10, 2012, 11:43 pmDo we get the battlefield 3 code? O.o?
Cause we are using gtx560 right?
or is it only if you buy the graf card alone?

Should be that choice.
Asus do not offer BF3 Code for Mobile GTX 560M laptops. Only Desktop Graphic card(Depending on bundled game labeled on the box), but later it was changed to Batman : Arkham City Game bundle.
