4. ?? Dunno
5. Don't know yet
6. Doesn't happen to me backlit keyboard works perfectly fine
7. No brightness issue also
8. My boot time is 30 secs with selecting 4 cores to boot, to windows lock screen, non SSD
9. I got mine in 3 days after impromptu buying (don't blame the resellers)

So yeah I don't see a problem in getting one. If you can't get one, then it's your problem smile.gif

1. The temp of course.. after repasting with better thermal compound will drop down the temp.. it's like saying.. using stock ram > high performance ram.. u can't do that...
2. BSOD shit happens everywhere.. each and every laptop has that. it's only up to ur luck.. .. and hopefully there is a solution  (shit happens especially when using SSD.. )
3. Yep one of our members here experience the CTRL key tear off.. that shit happens 1 out of 20 so far.. (i'm basing my statistic very roughly.. )
4. You may repaste... ask ur reseller if he can help u with the warranty issue... most of the reseller are just reseller .. they can't help u with the warranty. they will redirect u to asus service center which in turn will turn their heads away from u because u violated their T&C.. this is where u wanna pick the correct reseller which could help u even with the warranty issue smile.gif (i found one lol.)
5. Regarding the bad after sales service... Yeah they suck no doubt about it. but we cannot accuse them 100% because some customer claimed that asus service center is quite reliable. (depends on where u are) but overall.. u want a good after sales service? get DELL.. wanna go gaming? ALIENWARE! and fork out extra 2k for the same spec as asus.. smile.gif
6. yep this one is software problem... i also experience this stupid thing.. after sleep or hibernate.. keyboard light won't turned on.. except reboot..
7. and the brightness also.. =.= really cannot say anything.. but .. no biggy u can always adjust it.. smile.gif don't be too lazy
8. mine is quite similar to experience boot time.. and that is without SSD.. just need to throw away those bloatware.. and u'll do fine.. or better solution? SSD!
9. lack of stock is really Asus piece of shit problem.. but it's u who have to find where got hole.. smile.gif don't expect every wonderful things in this world to go ur way... work hard.. it would make u appreciate it more..
10. this one cannot say anything.. really.. AWESOME!

It is particularly true for #5. I almost end up getting M14x if I didn't know about G55 or GE60 lol.

Lower specs but pay more for service. Your choice.

Bumped into this:

http://laptopacer.edublogs.org/2012/06/04/...1258dell-mt3hj/

QUOTE
For some reason, Asus has chosen not to include Nvidia’s Optimus feature (switchable graphics) in the G55VW, meaning that the GTX 660M is active all the time and does not switch to the integrated Intel GPU to save power, even when running on battery power. Since the 660M uses more battery juice than the Intel IGP, the battery doesn’t last as long as it could have. Dell 312-0929


QUOTE
That Asus hasn’t enabled Optimus is unfortunate, since the battery would no doubt have lasted longer if the laptop had been able to utilize the graphics part of the processor. Gaming is not possible when running on battery power anyway, due to automatic clock speed reductions in the GTX 660M.



Hmmmm...

thats the normal 2.5" SSD.. or did i miss it?

Lol my bad.

Computerworld - If you want to speed up your PC but don't want to deal with a new hybrid hard drive, one way is to simply add an SSD cache drive to your PC. These drives aren't meant to be mass storage devices; instead, they cache your most frequent application operations and thereby improve performance.

But yeah I am contemplating between SSD mSATA and a fullblown SSD SATA. Hmmm.

I'm doing the AI Recovery backup in office as we speak laugh.gif

Just in case measures... but sad la I gotta go buy a set of DVD. Can't I just make it like those bootable USB drives and load the images?

Also, for new users for G55VW, you might want to refer here, I just disabled startup of some of the processes (I didn't uninstall):

http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus/38068...ware-guide.html

Hope that helps.

Lol I guess it was buggy before this.. even Arvina's first page says that uninstall that and install the latest version.

Fortunately for all of the G55VW S1131V users it came with the new version and all updated drivers so it should be a non issue smile.gif

I guess you're right. Service center will definitely take me some time but I just hope it's something quick like cable replacement, etc.

I'm using Crucial M4 btw and it is very fast. I suggest you try getting that one.

My friend is planning to get the OCZ Vertex 3 haha.

See how lah. Hopefully the price will drop a bit when I buy tongue.gif
