They say every week different promotion, they cannot keep giving previous customers rebates because of that.

I'm gonna receive my new Dell tomorrow. Thinking about returning it and then ordering again for the cheaper price, but it is very troublesome  sweat.gif

10/6 place order, ETA 22/6.
18/6 ETA updated to 25/6, send a email to them and complain too long, is more than half month(15days) to get the laptop reach.
As already quite annoy when the lenovo Y580 launch with 1st class GPU at price >3.5k right after 3 days i place order, there is nothing like this price in market b4 that if I am not mistaken.I include begging them to make it on 22/6 in the email...finally it reach at 22/6.

15.6 msata version

device kosong now 2 second to start up.
equip with master cooler U3....seems the legend of U3 is a lie,no different for temp test by hand during standby.
plug in HDD testing COD black ops, fan running with the sound zzz...as state in some forum this problem not solve even after dell technician change the fan.so no border.
very smooth on COD and lap works like easy job for it.
no cpuid and gpuz meter, no time. mayb next few weeks to upload.

F...ing what aluminium anodized back cover is bullshit.its juz a thicker plastic with paint.
keyboard like going to jump out....douing....can see the spring edi haha...joking....very lose...seriously.
therefore, build quality ---haiz...

the belkin bags looks nice, n i think compare with those cipla brand RM50/60 better to get this belkin bag.

gv me some time to propose test autocad, BF3 in nxt post.
thks for viewing.

you should take a snapshot of your keyboard and let us see what's the problem, I feel mine is acceptable:O

not sure if there'll be much positive effect by using laptop cooler, cause there's only one tiny vent below the compputer.

I think for the cover, it's a plastic with aluminium coating. With the computer switched off and put in aircond room, the part wit 'aluminium coating' feels colder, yoou can compare it easily at the touchpad part.

keyboard not spoil...juz like the new keyboard is a non virgin vigina...lose....
worse than my old keyboard more solid feel when pressing even already 3 yrs.
so take what pic? have to poke only know. laugh.gif

i am juz make clear for the cover coz there are people asking everywhere in the world.

Guys. After reading all the pages. Is 15r SE really that terrible? (Bsod, bad speakers, plasticky build, etc.) kinda attractive to me for the specs. i game a lot with the old babe 3670 on my sxps16, not the new games though. So am wondering which one is better 15r or 14r better for gaming? Looks like 640 has better performance but only 15r  (which only comes with 7730) comes with FHD. Does 14r have FHD? Was thinking about n56 but the comments on their sales service is kinda pulling me off the deal with Asus. A lot of doubts. Wanted to change new lappy so badly man. Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks.  notworthy.gif
Edit: the games i played are usually like CoD and BF3 (cant even play bf3 on my lappy, played on friend's desk)

bsod--- some people get this not 100%

bad speaker---what do you want from the cute speaker?
18inch woofer no need sell edi, CMY in 1U can bankrap selling set of home hifi for >RM10,000.

plasticky build---outer look only....the engine inside is not that bad as some other stupid brand outside.
go chow kit ask....boss, i wan big breast, big butt, young, nice looks and CHEAP...they will tell u pandai pandai lu sendiri pergi cari....

14r no FHD, studio xps?downgrading if go for inspiron...same like me....very mis the old lap which robbed...even is core 2 duo.

i will says try lenovo Y580 lerh....cakap dulu i only compare it from spec and price....do some research for review...

review update
AutoCAD - a bit lag when used in 3D modeling.esp very complex drawing file.
BF3 - when high setting, heat and bit of lag through out the whole process.once open heat up in 10 min.
COD3,4 - juz 1 or 2 time lag for 4hr of playing.medium heat through out the process.
NFS hot persuit - heat also not lag at all but some screenshot was having display error.the scene mix up... mad.gif

quite good respond when doing MS office multitasking thumbup.gif

yes, keep changing by manual, no such thing choose one for all time,all software.this is one of the bad things.

well, I find it tiring my eyes after a while, mainly because of the extra distance imposed by the external keyboard and the sharp and small text on the FHD screen. Of course you may say that we can always zoom in for reading but that doesn't looks nice, isn't it? Now I'm having a thought on getting an external monitor for my laptop, but then I would be questioning myself why getting a laptop at the first place then, haha sweat.gif

as mention by other u can adjust the resolution and also the text size in control panel.

Why dont you reduce the resolution a bit... At least when you are doing long hours of typing...

Also, do have any BSOD problem?
Does your system detect AMD 7730M as the main GPU in your dxdiag?

I see. Thanks for the info!!

1) It's upgrading from starter edition to Home and Student edition

2) It's tempting, but expensive. I guess you get what you pay for. I'll need to think about this carefully. What do you think about Dell's reliability?

3) That's what I'm thinking about as well. biggrin.gif

the microsoft office home and students they give is OEM version.meanz non-transferable licence, it will stick at the 1st pc that u install forever. if one day ur laptop being robbed the software gone together.(this is theoretical explanation, coz some of it can still install n update after applying same product key in another pc) comparing outside it is cheap.

but....

microsoft office home and students family pack version u can get at lowyat plaza for RM170-RM190.come with 3 licence and transferable licence.

if careless user and always travel with laptop---complete cover warranty is the best.or else go for 3 yr warranty for the basic package.(if u have budget)

The SSD is a mSata SSD, used for IntelSRT caching, not for file storage. Go device manager you should be able to see it or open Intel SRT software to enable caching.

the caching is it for recover from sleep? applicable for wake up from hibernate?

now i feel like it really fast when switching on the lap...3months edi, quite lots of files and software loaded....still same as the 1st time I use with all blank laptop, its ready in 2 second.that's amazing. think of wan to retrieve my word state that this I7 lap is not as fast as expected.


the shipping status is not accurate.while i receive mine on my hand the status show it still with the courier for the nxt 18hrs last time.believe the sms is more rational, more or less is black and white.

Yes the login is laggy because of the camera login option. I uninstalled the camera login and now it behaves like a regular Windows 7 startup screen.

Yes the pre-installed software on Dell sucks.

Also my S key just broke off and the WiFi always gives me wireless.

Maybe I should have stuck with Asus/Sony.

the wifi adapter was expected to be those weak one....mine always fight lost to phone when grabbing the bandwidth in public wifi hotspot....
