The US set 1.1k-1.3k usd one without the extra gfx right? Nearly import 1 (black fri sales) and realise this (because i keep thinking why msia set seems so exp)

US set damn nice got 16gb ram, larger hdd+ssd, blu-ray drive... Bt dunno how much extra gfx (and psu?) will cost so i hold onto tat first

Might get it this weekend. Any option with extended warranty n how much? Worth? Their onsite warranty is how?

Yea try out during pcfair also...

Did not impress though. Summore the price is too high want discount also sikit (so rekemen any1 want to buy go look in lyn sales)

End up buying other laptop lol

Best best price also 3759. Ask free other stuff also cant, free extend warranty also cant.

In the end bought msi gx60. A better deal i think and dont need to deal with sli caveat

@@ 4.3k only....

For 600 more i get a better gfx(at least single), 8gb ram, 750gb hdd and DVDRW. Get 2yrs msi warranty n free 1yr insurance warranty.

Cpu is bad i agree, but i got no problem treat it as support AMD business so they dun close shop

Err let me put it this way instead.

You will get same low/comparable fps like gtx680m/675m with Intel CPU when playing high/ultra at full HD. Because at the highest setting and resolution, bottleneck will be on the GPU and irregardless of CPU (in most games). In this case, both AMD and Intel proc are bottleneck by the GPU

However at lower reso or setting, GX60 will fall behind equivalent gpu with a Intel cpu, by a noticeable to large margin. This is the CPU bottleneck. However in this condition, the frame rates is still playable (as setting alrd lowered) so for some its not really an issue

Also other CPU intensive games like SC2 or mayb BF3 or GW2, no matter what setting GX60 will fall behind Intel.

Other things i noticed about is the AMD cpu load quite slowly, alth during gaming the fps is roughly the same (eg. Dota2 games usually im the last to load in)

The notebookcheck benchmark had two flaw:
-benchmark inc resolution 1366x768
-drivers: AMD driver sux but since GX60 there are alot of drivers update that gain performance due to enduro fix (which cause the GPU not to run at 100%). For the benchmark which driver was used?
