samsung announced mass production of its xp941 pcie based m.2 ssd. the speed is 1.4GB/s.

i think they are at war in the european markets with competitors. previously european sites got the vx and g46 first iirc. i remembered when i saw the g55/g75 for the first time, it's at russian sites too (beside europe only). at that time, there was actually one g75 model with 3720qm cpu (back then the max ram supported was declared at 16gb )

incredible.. and wow.. pcie based? where should i plug that in my g55? lol..

Ic, must be a big market there if they release almost everything there first. Since i couldn't understand their language i'm still wondering how big is the market there. Is it worth it to release there first?

for laptops, only mac can enjoy that first (well.. for now. some asus desktop boards also can use that)

no idea about market share in Europe lol; but i guess it's important to asus to maintain presence there.

ah.. MAc ... always MAC. i don't use MAC.. not designing anything.. i'm weak at ART or anything related with it.. haha

IC.. probably the market share there is really good aswell, since they can be considered rich country~..

asus has a new benchmarking tool called ROG RealBench (http://rog.asus.com/241042013/overclocking/rog-realbench-free-app-download-now/). you can try it out and compare it here

this is mine; all stock configurations bo clock one (cpu/gpu); using ram disk:

looks cool, does it work better than other benchmark tool?
Not really sure how to configure ram disk, how big is ur ram?

hehe benchmarking just allows us to do comparisons to reference scores. there is nothing fancy about it. whether it's better or not, that depends on what you're looking for. to me, for realbench, it's based on the predefined workloads, rather than synthetic tests; i just think it makes more sense.

i have 32gb of ram. 16gb of it is ram disk. my favorite is softperfect ramdisk.

Anyone experiencing artifacting on G53SX? When my GPU heats up to around 70 degrees (under gaming), the blacks turn to a flickering red, and whites turn to flickering teal. So take a dark, horror game for example, the entire screen will be red instead of black / dark colours

I've tried updating, downgrading & also using the ASUS official GeForce drivers to no avail.

I also found out I can't manually control the fans in this notebook so I can't use RivaTuner or MSI Afterburner or the likes.

I have to far gone up to dismantling the back panel and blowing cold air using a hairdryer thru it (no dust came out). Will this mean I need to repaste it? I don't have confidence to dismantle the entire thing including the LCD to access the GPU heatsink...

Other than that the laptop functions normally, and without load the GPU runs at about 45-50.

first, if you're using the latest gforce 320.18 driver, please replace it with older versions. there has been reports about the suspicion of that version causing many similar artifacts that you described (up until frying the gpu). it looked like the signs of defective gpu's

70c should not be a big deal normally (in fact that's a good temperature for gpu imo; normally we have around 73 to 75c under load). however, it's still better to clean the fans and vents up; if possible replace the thermal paste on the gpu too.

you can observe the temperatures of your gpu with hwinfo64 sensors page. leave the page opened while you play games normally. after the game, check your max temperature for gpu.

that bios update utility provided by asus is soo bugged, can bios version update thru bios?

just install 16gb and msata for my g55 took half day dismantle and assemble back, hopes nothing wrong till next year as warrenty end next year

today the g750 officially released in malaysia at rm 5999...quite nice specs but as expected, no gtx780m version.

does anybody know when the 15.6 new version coming to malaysia, or is there any new 15.6 version to replace the g55?

sure; go to bios menu > advanced, and start ezflash. alternatively you can get there by spamming f4 key on POST.

nice if you did it carefully nothing will go wrong haha..

yeah it's here since last weekend. the sad news is that it has a soldered cpu this time :/

so far there is no news about g55 replacements.

damn,.. problem with window boot manager.. i have deleted the old window boot manager that was from my old hdd in the bios and set the msata as the default drive, but the bios keep reselecting the old boot manager, now i have to manually go to bios and select the ssd to boot into the windows. anyone know the solution? , btw i cloned my ssd from partition c of that old hdd, merge the old partition c with partition d, as the msata is now the new partition c.

maybe these can help:
