hi all owners of Asus N56VZ,

today i went to Lowyat plaza to chaeck out on this model, but all stores have no stock, not even a demo unit. I want to check with owners here whether this model's display is FHD 1920x1080 or not?

some seller told me all versions (i5 or i7) are FHD, some said i5 is only HD (1366) and i7 is FHD...

also, would liek to know if the screen is matte (non reflective) or not? because i knly want to buy a matte display, my eyes have problem with those bright screens that dominate nowadays.

Can any owner clear my doubts?

Also, since you guys have used it for some time, any comments? problems? would you recommend it? (I'm not a gamer, will use it for progreamming, www, and do assignments, plus music)

thx.....

Mine is i7 which comes with FHD (1920x1080), from what I know is that i5 version comes with HD (1366x768) and no FHD model. and Yes, its matte screen 
Perfomance so far so good, just the startup time is kinda long.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Btw, IMO, the touchpad sucks big time. I personally prefer the traditional touchpad that comes with a trackpad and 2 buttons.

yes i5 model only has 1366x768 resolution, for matte screen it's not so bright   
No problem so far, just some software bugs(in my case my trackpad has a bit startup problem, solved by reinstalling the driver).
Hardware is ok, temperature maintaining 40+ Celsius, fast open for Netbeans.
I'm similar with you, not a hardcore gamer, use it for programming, assignments and multimedia use 
use for programming is good, since screen is big

just a curious that, anyone tried this N56VZ i7 on Guild War 2? how is the performance and outcome?  thanks for comment.

i5 is only HD~! .. full hd is for i7 lol... it is matte for both version...if they really did a fHD for i5 ... i wonder how much it would be haha

i5 = rm 2699 ...if you see the price any higher than that , maybe they did a FHD? lol
i7 = rm 3599 ... FHD, i7, Blu-ray, extra 250GB HDD

so far no problem.. just that gaming too long will make the cpu/gpu hot (normal for any pc), for music... you guarantee will love this laptop, excellent and clear audio by bang&olufsen ^^

Can play smooth with everything on high. But my ram upgraded to 8gb instead of 4gb. Laptop gets hot after playing for abt 1 hour

Singeryoon, so far no buzzing sound... Prefer to use the speaker indoor n earphone when I'm outdoor. The subwoofer is at the corner of my table, hardly ever use that lol zzz.

Any game you play that has high setting will heat up the CPU/TPU... Want it to last longer with less heat ... Set it to low LOL but no kick to it of course

Hi guys,

anyone has heard of this cooling pad?

To owners of N56, core i5 with 1366x768 resolution:

at the screen size of 15.6" with this resolution, when we read and type Word documents and PDF files, and when browsing the web, would the fonts be too big or not nice on the screen? (I mean, compared to the i7 with 1920x1080)

Really need your sharing/input.

How I wish to get the i7 in FHD, but cost is too high for me le.....

Nope, n56 i5 is 1388 cause when gaming, that's the max resolution I can set ... Can't find any 1600 option. Bro, if you saw the fullHD graphic, you might be disappointed with the hd display but if you can close one eye.... You will get used to the HD resolution after few days of using it.

What do you mostly use this laptop for ?
