true; my cpu took only a week to reach here from US. i don't recommend this seller who sell .ac to anyone

no problem and good luck


oh ok i think i saw some good drives floating around in garage sales section

oh? don't. check c-zone. 5499.

yeah. a lot of nice stuff are with cheaper price tags at lyp just walk in and ask. a better way is to check both lyn and lyp/local stores.

edit: if you get multiple items from them, and pay cash, they do give you discounts

yeah :/

Jh was said to be released in August 2013. Hope it comes with a cpu refresh haha!

sweet ma

hehe.. if not you thought why i am still holding on getting a g750?

however, this might be the lousiest g-series i have ever had. g75vx might be the last known good laptop model that allows better future upgradabilities (that might make it last for the next 3 years, for work purposes)

imo used stock g75vx with age less than 6 months should be priced around MYR 4k; with customizations (ram, ssd, wifi, cpu) it should starts from 4.5k (well that depends on what you have upgraded).

now i just realized my g55 has a after-market upgrades of at least MYR 5,000.00 (so plus the original price is about MYR 10k). so don't do it like me. it's stupid (i did it because i wanted to)

say 'thanks but no thanks' for low ballers.

exactly, for the first part.

for the edited part, i do agree with the consumers hoping to get cheap deals. however, imo i think the seller should know the base line that they can afford to give to the buyer (i.e. set a reasonable base line for your item, you don't need to announce it publicly; anything lower than that just say no thank you).

well that still depends on other factors, for instance, how desperate you need the cash.

a nice deal you have there

yeah i saw that, too. but i think it's a mistake of copy-and-paste. if it's true.. that's a nice deal.

if you are like what you told us here that you change gaming laptops every 9 months +, i think that g750jx is a much better choice.

this entirely depends on your requirements and how you look at things.

MYR 300 is nothing if you intended to upgrade your system within a year (upon purchase is much better).

i still feel that 12 months are more reasonable to get new one instead of 9.

well, it's up to you anyway

with your specs imo 3.9k is damn fcuking cheap. maybe you should state in your thread 3.9k firmed (or lowballers fcuk off hehe).

yeah; @Unseen83 was generous

that's epic :/

it's a g55, not g75. a g55's back cover is not that susceptible to break compared to g75.

haha!

damn.. we have such grown-ups as parents, too :/ and they used their own children as an excuse for cheap deals?! see? materialism has dominated.

if got children to feed, better save the money; don't waste time playing games too much; go out and earn more money and save it for own children.

it's a fair price to me, if you're talking about ASUS g-series. it sure takes time and a lot of patience to do the stuff.

uh? no. the disassembly is easy. to those who are familiar with the laptop, thermal paste replacement and cleaning up fans/vents are just under 30 minutes.

it's just tedious and needs a lot of patience.

--

oh.. but i think MYR 50.00 is more than enough.

that's why i ask you guys to learn to do that on your own. i have upgraded my wifi card to intel 7260 (under 15 minutes ). it has stronger signal but the problem now is my router/ap compatibility lol!

no, it has a single screw hidden under the cover. you need to pry that cover up first.

if you are not planning to upgrade your cpu/gpu at all, yeah it's good enough (the cooling should be the best among gaming laptops). i suggest you get the g750jh that is to be released in august 2013.

however, note that there are other options besides asus g750 (cheaper; easier to maintain on your own). take your time and look around. you might find what you REALLY NEED.

hehe i thought you're the first one to own jx/jh lol!

yeah the stock hdd sucks and really drags the actual performance of the laptop down by a lot; but you can use it for storage.

still, a better way to 'restore' the performance is:

1. keep the stock drive intact; don't touch it until you are comfortable with the new clean installs;
2. get a ssd for OS and apps/games, and a hdd for storage;
3. do a clean install on the ssd.

we are lucky in Malaysia because we can have a very basic model

yeah why not

still in the middle of finding time to read reviews about .ac routers :/

uh? fortune? it's about MYR 750+ only; from c-zone some more.

in general, a decent ssd like hyperx is fine.

for common usage, plextor m5s 256gb and up already makes many very happy.

however, i still suggest plextor m5pro extreme, and samsung 840 pro. they're a bit pricey but you will not regret it.

oh.. but my idea is this: to have good experience, you must have good infrastructure that is relatively time-proof.

you don't change infrastructure much; you only change end-point devices most of the times. routers happen to be infrastructure (well, only cutting edge technology are relatively time-proof; but the price is surely much higher :/).

i hope so lol!
