If they (Acer) know that your laptop has been opened before, the warranty will probably be voided. Whatever happens, just act dumb and say it just doesn't work as it should be if anything happens laugh.gif.

I just got my V3-571G with the i7-3630QM, 730m with 4GB and FHD 1080 IPS panel. I must say, I'm pretty happy with the performance of the laptop!! I went laptop browsing again, and one PC shop in Kuching actually showed a V3-571G with a 740M gpu!! Are they going to swap all the cards now to 740?

It may be an updated model, but I don't see any updates on Acer Malaysia and Acer US's website. Perhaps you actually saw the older version of the V3-571G, which has a GT640M and an Intel Core i7-3610QM instead? smile.gif

just checked the Acer S3-391-53314G52 Ultrabook at the SenQ The Mines, selling for RM2099 (PlusOne club member price)

is this model ok? the speakers look very small, but I like the thinness, lightweight, and can get SSD+core i5 at this price

It'd be a better idea to ask in the laptops recommendation thread at the Mobile Computing section. smile.gif

Wow, with the latest Nvidia drivers, 320.14, I'm able to run Bioshock Infinite on Very High settings @ 1920x1080 with very good framerates!! Even Ultra is still playable!!

Anyone know what is TZ01 in ACPI ?
I am getting very high temp on TZ01 and even auto shutdown when it hit 10x celcius.

Hey! I was thinking of getting this laptop. The price is nice for the specs. Love that 4GB card! Question: How do you find it so far eh? I currently have an Aspire 4920, runs pretty hot cry.gif Upgraded the RAM from 2- 4GB last June as I intended to use it a bit longer cool2.gif Its high time for me to change already, no dedicated GPU and all lol.

I was thinking of getting an ASUS but then I saw the V3- 571G. Waiting for the Haswell chips to be released too before making any decision. Please let me know what you make of this laptop yeah.. Thankss!! rclxm9.gif

Acer refreshed the v3 line with Aspire V3-772G.
www.digitaltrends.com/computing/acer-intel-haswell-aspire-v7-ultrabook-aspire-v3-gaming-notebook/

It looks good and the price is ok I think, but still no word of launch yet.

Hey!!! I would say I'm happy with the performance so far!! It meets my basic gaming needs and so far I'm able to run most games to my satisfaction. If I didn't require this for work, I would definitely have waited for the Haswell chips, but I heard only the higher-end Haswell's GPU's would truly make a difference.

The things I love about it are:

1) Gorgeous IPS FHD Panel rclxm9.gif
2) Good performing GPU for it's price and performance smile.gif
3) Comes with 8gb of DDR3 ram (will be upgrading it to 16gb soon)
4) Great processor for price point
5) Good speakers for a laptop
6) Comes with a numpad (I do alot of excel spread sheets and calculations! Lol!)

Things I don't like (or wished it had)

1) Laptop itself is cool to warm during gaming but emits alot of heat from the side hmm.gif
2) Not a backlit keyboard
3) Chassis is prone to flex, not as rigid as my Lenovo T420 (although it's unfair to compare with a business laptop but the difference is obvious)
4) Small gaps in between screen frame and panel (might be prone to dust entering) doh.gif
5) Battery life is just average (with power saver i get just under 3 hours)

Overall impressions are great, the negatives are just my nitpicking. I picked it over other laptops due to the IPS screen (just can't go back to TN after this), the 4gb of VRAM is great for my photo editing and spreadsheets (although redundant in gaming). Would I recommend it to moderate gamers? Yeap! Photographers? Yeap!

Future upgrades will be changing the optical drive slot into a hdd and adding in a SSD!!! thumbup.gif

the 650m does have a higher clock speed and uses DDR5 Ram instead of DDR3 in the 730m
