you'll see an i7 variant w/o BR drive soon enough prolly at 3.2k-3k and even FHD i5 variants at 2.6k below

Really? If this is true then N56 will be my purchase! Because I dont really need bluray drive, only need i7 with fullHD!

Now just worried about the temperature of this laptop because only one vent at the bottom..

N56VZ/N56ZM come with GT650M(DDR3), is the DDR3 a bottleneck and GDDR5 are much faster? hmm.gif

Guys mite as well opt for N56VZ over N56ZM?

Don't really need a quad core processor, i5-3210 should be enuf for gaming tongue.gif

The advantage is a full HD screen(screen price should be around rm 300 - 400 right)?

1TB instead of 750GB(not ssd tho)

Blue ray dvd drive(don't really need it).

Pay another rm 900. Worth it?

I don't game, instead I need i7 and full HD. Bluray I don't need, so I hope they will release N56ZM with just DVD drive and other specs identical. If around RM3399... It would be perfect!

I also want something like that, but good processors don't usually come without a decent gpu, which ought to add cost. the only choice is to go business line which is stupid cause it's gonna cost you a bomb anyway.

the problem with going to that extra is that if you add another 400 you can get a much better laptop.

I think this is the biggest problem with malaysian pricing for laptops. in US the G series costs less/have significant margin in comparison to the other ASUS line.

But i think i remember u saying that i7 will get hot easily if compared to i5. and gaming i5 is enough. Probably the good thing is only full HD?

not likely/not gonna be a big deal on 15.6'. If you play games only it's something you wanna avoid. But if you do real work with needs for computing power this is something you're gonna have to swallow.

Yup, if you're only using the laptop for gaming, then the i7 is sort of overkill nod.gif
The non-FullHD version doesn't seem to be as appealing as the FullHD version to me hmm.gif
But, the final choice is yours smile.gif

lenovo is 7200rpm


as for SSD on n56, you can replace the HDD but from the looks of the video review you cant swap your optic drive for SSD


Added on June 16, 2012, 12:53 amwait, from the custumization options of xoticpc, it seems you can swap optics with SSD/HDD
