clean install or using backtracker to restore the laptop to factory state with the new ssd?

ykgen,

for how well the msi laptops run, it's still better to ask the owners here. however i still don't like the idea of having a single fan (even though it's very efficient).

yeah.. we no fan boys we happened to have the asus g-series and we find this thread is nice to hang around. i personally like g55 because it's cool and quiet even under loads. other than that,

right, it's pointless worshiping brands. they are just laptops.

for asus, we just hope they realize one thing for their gaming laptops: if you wanna go cutting edge, think carefully first ('smart' inventions like m.2 ssd converter is something that really make people laugh :/). looking at things in every possible angles, not just based on sales stats (that's too lazy and lame, because there are always actual reasons behind what drove the sales).

uh? it runs like you have 1 ssd and runs everything on that ssd. 3 ssd's do not mean it will run faster

besides, i use ram disk instead of ssd for my work. it's much snappier.

yeah asus is too conservative for their laptops; but they pretend to be very innovative and dare to go cutting edge (with all the wrong solutions).

it's a good case study on how reliable brands kill their own products

er.. afaik ai recovery only works for w7. for w8 use back tracker. i am not sure how many dvd's do you need for that.

we haven't found any local unit yet. from asus' product guide, there is nothing about a jh.
