- as long the seller / shop sold you the all new official set ( default with manufacturer warranty), once you have register warranty, any manufacture fault, buyer should refer back manufacturer for warranty ( by buyer him self or with seller's help ). no matter what ever brand such as Dell, Hp , Lenovo and etc . Is not seller / shop manufacture the Laptop, you ask refund from them for what ? sweat.gif

- Unless, you buy used unit, seller/ shop given you personal warranty.

Another review of the G55
http://www.bestgaminglaptop.net/news/gtx-6...g55vw-vs-g53sx/


Added on May 9, 2012, 9:15 amI'm thinking of getting a G55 but taking a look at all the complaints about the customer service in the mobile computing forum, I'm getting worried.
From what I can see, if you get a good laptop, everything is rosy. But if there is a problem & you need to go to the Asus service center to get it fixed, you're screwed.

no need so worry lol, i my self own few brand laptop, including Asus, using almost 10 months, no problem at all, luck wub.gif

U miss quite some stuff, side I/O. G75 gets Thunderbolt, G55 should be Display Port.
CPU-Z of the RAM, default model comes with 4GB, which mean below the keyboard there still one slot empty. Unless they put it 2x2GB.
Device manager to rectify its a single drive.
I still attached my G15 to game on regular gaming basis. Trying not to pressure the chiclets keyboard.

- about the display port, i didt have tension on it, since its not mine lappy tongue.gif
- ya, i know total 4 ram slot, thats why i said only 2 user accessible, another slot ( below keyboard )- non user friendly - not easy to access laugh.gif ,

- single drive things ? hehe, brows.gif if the laptop is mine, i will go thru all the test , but its not mine thumbup.gif

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

it is the same..the default 1600mhz ram will underclock for the three 1333mhz ram..no matter what case, the higher clock ram will underclock..but why you want to add 3 more 4gb 1333mhz ram?..adding 1 4gb ram with default 4 gb ram is enough bro..8gb cukup..what do you think?

pictures of the bag..damn hard to find one..but the bag very nice and over the rm300 price range..no choice cause others below that price range cannot fit the g55


Added on May 17, 2012, 11:16 am
bro, 8gb is always better than only the default 4gb in the g55..no matter whether both of them running at 1333mhz or not smile.gif so i cant find shop selling 1600mhz ram, just use the 1333mhz ram. smile.gif


Added on May 17, 2012, 11:20 am
can post link here? thanks smile.gif

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

hi bro,, the shop that alexdino and tomato and egg bought already finish stock.the guy that I bought my g55 from,gadgetguide    also finish.I'm from penang and it is not easy to get the g55. But you can try the online shop techhypermart.and they have ready stock of the g55 non 3d model..with that, I hope you buy your g55 soon and join the g army..most of the shops at penang and kl font have the g55, but dbassnut has been telling about gadgetzone, maybe you can try that too..the guy I buy from has finish stock too...so now got two options..techypermart and gadgetzone..but most probably requires you to drive to selangor..r u buying the 3d or non 3d model?
