Well i never bothered to use compressed air, i usually just rip apart my g55 and clean the air vent and the fans and also re-paste them. The only few effect is when i point my big fan towards the laptop vent, but still it doesn't help that much down by a few C only. Such as GPU idle at 45C and with the big fan around 40- 43C doesn't help that much tho. So i wonder if those expensive and high powered high performance cooling pad will help alot. But if it suits you well it's always down to the user itself. I'm quite satisfied with my temp atm.

p/s: i'm more concerned on the thermal paste rather than the cooling pad or if there's actually replacement for the internal fan i'd go for those instead. Those help alot.

I do it in my free time . If not just leave it abit dusty sometimes, still is Good

My laptop also no aircond room boss, my area rempit at 3AM still can hear~ Below me is restaurant only and their airwell from their kitchen pointing towards my window imagine it's oily dust~ even ceiling fan, standing fan if wanna clean have to use soap~ to remove those oil somemore the heat from the airwell=.=" i sometimes thought this is the desert~ But the only thing that reminds me not is the delicious smell of food~ hahahaha

close the gap + rate of heat transfer between the the gpu to the heatsink. Depends on which model laptop some might not need as u mentioned about aw, maybe because their heatsink and the gpu heat sink is close enough so there almost no gap in between. But the law of thermodynamics is usually hot air to cold air. So if there is something in between to help the transfer i would take that chance! haha. So imho a decent thermal paste should do the job rather than some crappy ones. I think trouble with crappy ones is they expired too fast and thus become like solid~ although some thermal paste are made to be like solid once it's fixed in.

1. I think i've seen some ads(not malaysia) yes it comes with 16gb ram
2. Not sure, let's hope it's in inaccessible slot so it leaves those 2 more ram slots at maintenance hatch open for upgrades (from G55 last time they put 1 stick inside the inaccessible slot leaving the ones at maintenance hatch open for upgrade)
3. yep DDR3L RAM, usually this is accompanied by Haswell proc~
4. Saw that too, i'm not too sure myself.
5. Let's wait for the FB shop, but for the price i saw AUD 3999 but things there are abit more pricier than here~ (so i heard)

same like how you claim that AW service is not that good while others have really good exp with them

Probably asus will have alot more complaints compared to AW due to the wide range of laptops they bring in and see the ratio of people using ASUS vs AW. But still it's under Dell warranty and Dell also have a wide range of laptops as well

Well it's good to know that their after sales is always improving.

yeah. it's been quite awhile. About time they bring in the big boys!

true2! i bought my 3D monitor solely for the 120hz not for the 3D. It's been quite awhile i've never even watched 3D. Want to watch just go cinemas~ lol. so Lazy download large2 files

haha i thought i remember u say before their service not good =.=" or was i wrong haha.. it has been awhile so my memory might be blurry lol

haha good lo .. same ol same ol.. nothing has changed~ only weight change .. no decrease just increase ~

haha.. my g55 monitor except i went out only then will use if not will only use external monitor much better/bigger/ and more vibrant colors~ haha..

120hz is quite good also, less eye strain. can work long2.. (or just a psychology to myself la haha)

if they use the same mobo as g750jz that comes with 880m. i think there will be even 2 slots of msata. Not sure tho. I also cannot confirm on that one. Will look around for u.

since i saw
g750jz msata

I simply google but i don't really know which variant comes to malaysia. Thanks for clarifying

Btw i believe they will use same mobo but the variant would be either the msata, ssd, or cpu. and also the dvd/bluray. CPU would be the same or can be customized (but don't know if they soldered it) and also gpu but gpu depends on which model such as g750jm, js, jz, jh, or jx. also it will have different variant for different countries as well so it will come differently on the hdd packed as well. Although i'm not sure about the mobo for jz and jh/jh/jx and also js would be the same or differently. I've never have hands on one. Just read reviews only. Went to shop also so hard to see. =.="

wah seriously? why did they drop so low. play cheap tricks then. So if one opt the option of raid 0 msata. left 1 slot for HDD/SSD. It's either raid with msata or full fledged SSDs. I'd opt for the later.

thanks for the info. Didn't know they will do this lol

I thought because they have the love for 1tb hdd. So simply put 1tb then to make it fast raid msata lol. Tau2 they use splitter only 😑 no wonder storm rip apart the laptop also see 2 slot sata3 only lol!!

im confused. whyteaz say there is no msata on the mobo for g750jz. it only have 2 sata3 port and instead they use sata to msata converter to make that 256gb msata raid 0 thats why it there is option for 256 gb raid 0 + 1tb hdd but no 2xmsata + 2xsata3. Since i never had the chance to dissect one myself need input from others. I thought u say u only saw 2xsata3 port and no msata on the g750jz aswell? from your previous post

ah now i get it! lmao. So the ones they bring in malaysia is 2 x sata3 port not the one that they change the sata to msata port =.=" lol. coz i thought u meant like other highend laptops that has usually atleast 2 sata slots and either 1 or 2 dedicated msata slot.. Thanks for the clarification.

Now why asus so stingy =.=" Just give laa.. 2 x sata3 port and 2 x msata port! .. no need to fill in all also can. we self buy =.=" give choice wan msata raid or sata raid. i choose sata raid for sure =.=" Full fledge SSD is always better than msata SSD.

but the price tag is surely

Any other brands that comes with 880m have similar price tag?

Oh. Lol. So they do it for airflow but turns out making ROG user lost their rubber feet. really pro and cons. although the i do agree with the biggest design flaw is the accessibility to the fans and inner customizability of the laptop itself.

Haha, just tear the laptop~ we have alot of guides on the first page of this thread. Although another option is of course compressed air i still prefer tearing it down . Then can also repaste thermal paste

2nd n 3rd link is the same model. If u have the budget go for jz. Comes with 880m its at the top there for mobile gpu

On setback is the warranty. The rest is superb. If u dont mind the warranty id say go ahead but if u do, our lowyat garage has alot of local unit but without the customization that ure opting for.

To make a statement i guess? THIS IS AN ASUS PRODUCT!! Lol probably they were thinking something like that

True couldnt agree more. But i am not surprised. Lol. Like you said they prefer doing things backwards. Dont know heading where now.

wow!. I really like the review. Makes me want those g750jz more! haha. Did he say independent fans? each for cpu and gpu. PLus the price are getting more affordable since gaming notebooks are becoming somewhat common compared to before. While less and less people are making custom rigs.
