*** Q & A Section ***


1. Where to buy these Asus G-Series gaming notebooks? For instance: Asus G73.
A = You have two alternatives to get yourself a R.O.G gaming notebook. First, you can buy it via local resellers around Malaysia. Click here for more information. Second, you can buy it via other countries resellers. For example, GenTechPC from US. Please refer to *** Where to Buy? *** section.


2. Any difference in price if I buy from Malaysia resellers or US resellers?
A = Yeah. For instance, the price difference of Asus G73Jh in Malaysia and US is astonishing. Malaysia one may cost you around RM10000.00 and the US one may cost you around RM6000.00 in relative (dependent on the currency exchange).

3. How much is the shipping/ delivery fee if I import the notebook from US?
A= The shipping/ delivery fee will vary from different freight forwarders and resellers. For instance, the USPS (freight forwarder) of GenTechPC (reseller) will cost you 149 USD.


4. How to do the wire transfer? Is it safe?
A = You can do it at any local bank but the most ideal one is Maybank as the transfer fee is the lowest of all, that is, around RM25. Nevertheless, you guys must bear in mind that the US bank will charge you some money for the transaction as well. For instance, 30 USD for the assigned bank of GenTechPC. As for the safety level, it is safe as long as you buy from a reputable reseller and follow the TT procedures.

5. May I use PayPal, PayPal eCheck or credits card to make the payment?
A = Usually, the resellers from US only accept wire transfer for international transaction. However, there are some members who manage to do their payment besides of TT. Thus, my advice is to ask the resellers first before making your payment.

6. How about the warranty of Asus notebook?
A = All Asus notebooks come with 2 years global warranty which means that you can claim the warranty wherever you are as long as that particular city has Asus service center. As for the 1 year accidental warranty, it only applies to North America.

* If anyone has questions regarding on these notebooks, feel free to ask around this thread and I will write down them all at this section. Thanks!

The biggest plus of a SSD for me is, even when it's faulty, you can still clone the entire drive. Nothing's more important than your data. biggrin.gif

So I've got myself a 24" LCD monitor that does 1920x1080. And I've finally got the chance to run the my g53sx at full hd. I've got to say, the crip still performs it's gaming duty admirably even at full hd. I'm not talking abt minecraft or dota at 1080p, im talking dem gpu killer games like metro 2033. I was always under the impression that it won't perform well cuz of the crippled memory bus.

Here are some results. Gaming was done with overclock and resolution at 1080p

The witcher 2 - med settings - some features disabled - avg 30-35 fps
Crysis 1 - med to high - 30 to 40 fps
Crysis 2 - high settings - 35 to 45 fps
Metro 2033 - med+dx11 - 35 to 45fps
battlefield 3 - medium preset - 35 to 40fps

The crip really struggles when I try to push things to all high, as it limited by the smaller bus width. But tune the details down abit to medium, and ull see good fps in ur gaming , as the smaller bus width is able to cope with the moderate flow of data coming from d gpu . And don't forget to overclock it to maximize ur gpus performance biggrin.gif

It's all good brah. The 560m is good enuf for 3D gaming for all the gpu killer games given the screens low resolution.

Now I'm dreaming about 3D gaming on a big screen at full HD. Probaly have to built a desktop and SLI gpus to handle all that jazz at full hd smile.gif

Cooler i feel got difference, some games peak 82c, but running around 73-82, not constant 80+. Even considered repaste, but the system is still quite new, rather wait till it hit 90+c first. tongue.gif

Ok this is just stupid. Less than two weeks and my laptop cant even startup when i  press the powerbutton. The keyboard lights up and then nothing happens. Whats left is the light on the top left 3 quickbuttons and the power button light. Nothing happens after that. Screen wont even show anything

calm dude, just switch off it totally, unplug the power cable from the lappy and press the start button few times to discharge any electric in you lappy. then plug back power cable to your lappy, switch on the plug then power on your lappy: now it should boot normally. dude this happened few times with my G53SW, I thinks is normal maybe due to cold boot or something else.

if forever unable to boot the you r done haha , warranty claim ASAP!

Noo, i dare not attempt overclocking from my current temp yet, lol. I think I got 40-60 fps on Advanced. I didnt use any special patches to it

i c... ure on the 3d version rite?? u shud be able to play all the games out the at high to ultra settings at 1366x768 at stock clocks... since the stock core clock is quite high alredy.. 775mhz..

the reason im asking is, the 258.62 driver made my stable OC unstable in crysis 2 n mafia 2.. screen flashed... clocks were reset to stock... my OC was rock solid on 280.26 ... can game for 2 hours straight wihtout crashing..

hopefully someone here can confirm this..

so now im back to 280.26...

good thing abt 258.62 is that u get fps boost on certain games and battlefield 3 doenst crash// lol

Ok this is just stupid. Less than two weeks and my laptop cant even startup when i  press the powerbutton. The keyboard lights up and then nothing happens. Whats left is the light on the top left 3 quickbuttons and the power button light. Nothing happens after that. Screen wont even show anything

I think I read something like this before. What causes it is the magnetic sensor on the screen which tells the computer when the lid is closed or open...

If I'm not mistaken.. What you will wanna do is, use a small, mild-strength magnet, and rub it at the spot to the right of your touchpad where it would touch the lid when it is close.

Here is where you should do it

Rub on it with magnet for around 20-30 seconds while power is off and everything unplugged.. Do at own risk and goodluck thumbup.gif sweat.gif

P.S: If this doesn't solve it, then the culprit is not the magnetic sensor

The power button issue very common on d g53sw . Seems like sx also. But ive never encountered it . Touch wood. I'm more concerned abt the brokened power connector pin . Heard alot of stories regarding this on the g53sw over the asusrog forums . It will be a nitemare if that happens

His issue wont be the power button ._. Coz it did turn on...

Probably the sensor got magnetized and thought the the lid was always closed, thus turning off the display tongue.gif

Ok, i just got back my laptop from my dealer, and they taught me a way to get my screen back on ; pull out the plug and press the power button and and switch power on again, something like that. apparently he said it is a BIOS problem and i have to wait for the update as the problem might occur again. According to him, it is related to hibernation mode where the laptop fails to recover from that and remains in hibernation. Weird thing is i managed to hear the startup sound when it first happened. Oh well, i guess ill keep using it till *touchwood* my screen blacks out again lol.

On the other note, i got my laptop for RM3790. Together with RAM upgrade to 16gb - RM5000. (including installing charges)

Like i said earlier, that wireless mouse is just an extra item. Of course you will get the gaming mouse, just that in my case i got 2 mouse instead of 1
Lol laugh.gif theres nothing to scared about, its your money. Just ask them if the screen is FHD or just HD. Plus, you can confirm it yourself at the side of the box. It will state the resolution of the screen.
Here in lowyat.net, the cheapest I got offered is RM3850 but you have to booked first. If you cant wait like me, just buy it at the SRP RM3999 in any retailer shop.

@Kalist0
wow nice price but how come you ram upgrades is so freaking expensive? blink.gif

Good luck with that waiting period. 2 weeks is not accurate. Pretty sure it'll drag longer. *touchwood*

Alternatively u could've go for Qosmio X775 with the same price range.

Alternatively u could've go for Qosmio X775 with the same price range.

It should be this configuration.

G53SX default Samsung 4GB is installed at Slot 1.

Godlike War install it in
Slot 4 - 4GB (Below the keyboard.)
Slot 2 - 4GB (Above Slot 1, at the bottom panel)

Still dual Channel. Have u even google before asking? Sandy Bridge does not support Triple channel. Heck Sandy Bridge has highest memory bandwidth even with just dual channel.

AFAIK,the only Intel Board supporting Triple Channel Memory is Intel X58 which is Nahelm platform.

U reminded me, Kalist0 might be on Power Saver or any other mode aside from High Performance. Switch to High performance and it shouldn't drop that much.

If it still lags, please use throttlestop however, do read up the forum on how to use it. We won't be responsible if it burn out ur processor/laptop.

nope im playing modern warfare 2 online and it lags, not to the point where it feels like im using pentium 3 but it is enough to annoy me. i thought it was line connection and then i tried battlefield. sadly, it even show the same symptom with the same settings as before.

by the way, is it normal that the graphic card uses 240+mb during idle? user posted image

reason to ur ques is cuz its +1k more expensive and not many ppl are into 3d gaming yet

only get it u r into 3D gaming, 3d movies, 3d pictures

the g53sx 3dversion does 3d gaming really well, mainly becuz of its low resolution

Hi guys so sone just offered to swap his m17x r2, 5870 crossfire with my g53sx3d. Do you think it is worth it?

The reason why is am asking is because the I found the g53sx 3d comes with a low res screen which looks ugly on a 15 inch laptop as well as reduce window space.

beeenn: as per what Mr_47 said, a few of us also had problems on inserting the DIMM slot (4) which is located under the keyboard.

Had to try 3 times b4 it worked. Please try to PUSH the DIMM module deeper then only clip the sides. Please mind the degree with you insert the DIMM also you dont wanna break anything.

Cheers

from the condition i saw everything looks perfect except for the lost(just cosmetic) hinge cover. I believe this set is refurbish from dell and still comes with 1 year warranty.

Hi guys so sone just offered to swap his m17x r2, 5870 crossfire with my g53sx3d. Do you think it is worth it?

The reason why is am asking is because the I found the g53sx 3d comes with a low res screen which looks ugly on a 15 inch laptop as well as reduce window space.
*
but rmbr

M17xr2 is an old model
ur g53sx 3d is the latest model

from few days old item u trade with years old item
not worth it i think

You can use MSI AfterBurner - Settings - Monitoring, everything under 'Active hardware monitoring graphs', tick to 'Show in On-Screen Display'.
Then just leave it running and start your game, should have some data on upper left screen..

Depends, If u would be upgrading the GPU and CPU next year, i dun see a problem exchanging it. However, do take notice the GTX 560m is more powerful than HD5850m and ur Sandy Bridge is more powerful compare to Clarkfield.

want to ask since you all using full hd screen in 15.6 screen how does the fonts looks like?, i know the window space is bigger and you can open more windows but how about the icons?.

Is it comfortable to use lets say compare to 1366x768 on a 15.6 inch screen?

This is with Throttlestop, doesn't improve much but it stays more on 40fps and doesn't really fluctuate alot. Omg... A G Series Laptop that cannot support Ultra Settings for Modern Warfare 2.. wth.

The GPU USage doesnt fluctuate much, most at the time at 89-90% but this is on ThrottleStop.

OK, without throttlestop, GPU Usage fluctuates to around 50+%-90+%. wth is this??

I would actually prefer HD, as thing will look more clearly compared to FHD. Icons looks smaller. For document/web browsing, HD looks better infact.

I think u need some of the "G users" to hands on experience and troubleshoot on the spot. Try ask around if any of them living close to ur area, or meetup at somewhere.

From my look, ur GPU may look damage/faulty in a sense that throttlestop doesn't help ur frames.

i have a 1366x768 g53sx... and ive tested the full hd g53sx at my local store...

the icons on ur desktop look smaller.. but reading some words off the web browser is abit uncomfortable for me, cuz the words look veryvery small...

imo, if u do alot of reading and ms word editing and all that off the full hd g53sx, it 'might' annoy u abit... but if u use it mostly for gaming and wacthing videos, u shud be fine

the other thing ive noticed is that the 3d g53sx looks abit more brighter compared to the full hd one

you can use msi afterburner oc software to downclock...

just to see if your 3dcard working normally when downclock, then we can conclude your 3dcard faulty.

Have you tried using a previous version of the graphic driver from nVidia?

Weird.. I'm running everything MAXED out on MW3, even with 16X filtering, no stuttering problems. Better pray it's not your GPU chip issue, hate going back to service centres.

Sounds like Atheros wireless card issue. Previously it was ok was it? My Atheros works like charm.

Oh My God hahaha, i've solved the goddamn problem. i had this problem before where my screen would go blank after waking up from hibernation, thus needing to reset the bios. today, i was strucked again by that problem and after reset, my MW2 gives me a near constant 110 fps smile.gif but then my local reseller told me before this is a BIOS problem which is pretty infamous if u search in the internet.
are there any BIOS that i can flash to since the version i have now is 205. and if not can i reinstall my bios? anything like that?

how do you fix the pressing power button thing? i got that twice already for my new laptop. apparently have to hard reset my bios which coincidently fixed my graphic issue. my local distributor told me its because of BIOS problem. can we flash to another version? in NBR forum someone told me to flash to 211 or 213? compatible?

Sounds like u need to lookup in NBR sticky for G53SW solution.
Touchpad - I hardly used it, always plug in the ROG mouse.
Power button - no issue yet, common issue in SW.
Wireless - I do not experience disconnect, instead i do suffer from slow. Maybe its my internet connection limitation.

U can flash to Bios 203/205, but the Description does really addresses ur issues.

hi all,

i'm looking for a new gaming laptop and came across this thread. Did alil bit research and found the asus gseries fits my budget.
From info at first page, anybody bought from illeGear? just need some dealing feedbacks on this entity since i've been to few computing outlets and they *unwilling* to bring in asus gseries lappies.

ASUS G53SX - XR1
ASUS G74SX - BBK7 Factory

these 2 models is in my list, hoping it can play SC2 and D3 (when release) in high setting...any comment from you guys?

Basically BBK7 variant has a GTX560M with a crippled 128-bit memory bandwidth using 2GB GDDR5 compared to the regular GTX560M with 192-bit bus with 3GB GDDR5 VRAM.

So it's cheaper but your suffer a performance dip.

ASUS G53SX - XR1 is using the same Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M GPU with 2GB GDDR5 Video Memory as well.

meaning the 2 model i mentioned will not perform well in gaming since both running the same type of gc unless i chg to GTX560M 192-bit bus 3gb gddr5 vram

ASUS G53SX - XR1 is using the same Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M GPU with 2GB GDDR5 Video Memory as well.

meaning the 2 model i mentioned will not perform well in gaming since both running the same type of gc unless i chg to GTX560M 192-bit bus 3gb gddr5 vram
*
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 rclxms.gif

For Asus, the GPU is normally soldered in so it's better to just get the 3GB variant outright. Besides, cost of buying the GPU would be absurdly overpriced.

Nope, u can't swap. Asus GTX 560M has 2 version, 2GB and 3GB variant. I suppose all the G74SX GTX 560m is soldered to the board compared to G53SX which uses a Reverse MXM Card.

Asus GTX560M uses a reverse MXM format which makes it hard to upgrade to clevo/sapphire card.

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...

CPU can change however, it may not be recognize by BIOS. Especially those market QS/ES. Some G73SW has issue recognizing ES processor. But not for G73JH.

Not too sure about the performance, stock gtx 560m is 775mhz. I clocked max Core clock @ 910Mhz.
That windows score doesn't resemble anything, mind u. Its the game fps that matters.

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)

I use furmark to test stability. Click on the Benchmark with the setting u desired, it will eventually heating up the GPU to almost 100% GPU Processing.

One more thing, anything using Driver 285.62? I have some driver stop responding and recovered as many other desktop GTX 560 users in Nvidia Forum?

i 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

Yeap, the driver is the culprit. Pretty sure Nvidia is investigating it. A lot of GTX 560 Users are complaining that sudden driver failure.

There are no vbios update for GTX 560M so far. It is obviously nvidia driver has a flaw. Both beta and 285.62 suffers the same driver failure symptoms.

Would like to ask, if I install an USB External Sound Card, should I disable the onboard sound first or even uninstall it? As my new creative USB sound card, the feature example EAX setting etc, not seems to work fine and prompt me error that "Audio Device Not Detected....." I tried plug in headset and Speaker to the USB sound card, got sound, but all the feature (mixer, EAX etc) not working and no sound effect. One noob question, how to disable Onboard sound? I can't seems to find that option at BIOS Setup for G53SX.

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.

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.

If you like to game alot, go with G53 cos it doesnt use optimus technology like in n55.
I have a msi GE620DX, it come with GT555M like n55 and from what I experience, sometimes optimus doesnt work properly.

yea, but it still fixable. I have to try a bunch of different driver and turn somethings off. Luckily i dont have this much problem when using G53. So far most of the game i install can straight away play.[QUOTE]

I suppose so. There's competition from HP DV6 and Sager.
Sager is better for upgrade GPU and accessibility to clean the internals.

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

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.

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.

i check, i ask the technician. he say they ordered blu ray for me. I called two times to make sure they get a blu ray drive.. but in the end no blu ray back.

But what to do? I 1 month no laptop, cannot wait another whole month to get blu ray. I think i'll just buy a new one and pasang myself. I got the technician to ask about it la, but not very hopeful.

My personal opinion since tested all 3.

Siberia V2 would be the most comfortable and balanced in terms of sound. The mic might be a bit flaky sometimes when it comes to picking up sounds but other than that, no regrets getting this for usage. Pricey but worth it. I have 2. laugh.gif

5HV2 is the one for gaming. Higher treble, weaker bass to enhance footstep detection while not deafening yourself to explosion. Comfort-wise it's alright. Not the best, but you could do much worse. Sound is not isolated because it uses a hard spongy material for the cups. hmm.gif

Carcharias would be more bass heavy. It's light and makes it feel comfortable but I have to say it's a matter of choice between the Siberia and this for comfort. Can't really complain much about this one. Good thing it's cheaper too. tongue.gif

hm, cause ME3 is coming, I'm not getting it for competitive so i'll emphasize more on bass to get awesome explosions.

I'm looking for a headset can wear for erm... as long as it takes to complete ME3 without hurting my neck... the Roccat Kave is bloody heavy. Trade with your other siberia V2? hahahhaha (also would prefer a detachable/hidden mic, thus not so keen on the Razer, and a detachable and braided cable. So that's why i turned to the 5H V2)

So you'll recommend the siberia V2 over the razer? Or do you have another recommendation?

@doubleU

ive been using turtle beach px21 for a month now.. bass is good enuf and not that overwhelming.. it has good sound clarity.. can easily hear footsteps when someone is near you (saved me a few times from being backstabbed in BF3 multiplayer)

comfort wise.. its not big and heavy.. i definitely did not feel any sort of discomfort after 2 hours in BF3 online..

it also works really well for skype.. my partner on the other end said my voice sounded really clear

however, it does not ahve a detachable mic n cable. haha... the other reason i bought it , is because it is compatible xbox360.. (ps3 too)

I got rid of them already. Sold off both to my friends. laugh.gif

Alternatively, could get headphones rather than headset. Those will have better sound quality, just that you'll lose the mic.

I would recommend SS over Razer anyday. tongue.gif

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.

erm, i think dun open your keyboard yet. try installing the Asus ATK package, cause it might just be he driver problem. Cause if your keyboard light the setting is off, you press the button at the top right corner to turn on/off backlight it will have no effect. You use Fn + F11 got the volume image?

Perhaps u could open up ur keyboard and check if the LEDs are present. (I can't be too sure)

@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?

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...

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..

It would be a slim chance for GPU upgrade. Asus uses a reverse MXM, as opposed of Sager/MSI/Alienware.

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.

@xxxcriminal : oh boy, i think i have to thank you indirectly hahaha. went to asus penang to check up on my laptop status and surprisingly they told me it was done! I was like huh? no one called me.. so they said someone earlier had the same problem and they received a few sets of graphic cards and motherboards together. so overall, it only took me less than two weeks to change my graphic card and motherboard. wooot , miss my modern warfare lols
*and my keyboard light is working lol

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~

you can get all the speakers to produce sound. but it won't be 5.1 in the sense that each speaker has it own output. It'll just be left and right (2.1) So that won't be surround sound since you can't arrange the 2 speakers to be behind you. You ned the 5.1 channel soundcard to do so.


Added on January 10, 2012, 12:56 amso basically you buy 5.1 speaker without soundcard you wasting money. the satallite speaker quality of the Z523 is better thanthe Z506, but imo the Z506 more pretty. (iirc the sub of the Z523 is better too)

So no sound card mean you waste money to get quantity > quality

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.

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.

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?

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?

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.
