Hi Prince J, I have yet to receive any notification for the bag that was out of stock when I bought it. Is it arrived yet?

Also, I am interested to install Hackintosh on my S5, I googled that I need to flash PremaMod bios. Stupid question but would that void my warranty? and I read some of the people here saying that there's an updated BIOS also, where can I get it and how can I update the BIOS?

also, does opening up the back of the laptop, to put in extra SSD etc void the warranty?

Backpack has arrived and you can send an email to sales@illegear.com for collection request.

Upgrading SSD doesn't void your warranty as long as you don't break anything.

Dear boss Prince J,

Got a new Bios after my purchased (4 months). Can flash liao?

which models of Illegear laptop that have its gpu upgradeable ?

D, RS, RX series

Okay I recently bought the 980m upgrade for my np9150(RS-15) 2012 model from Illegear and I thought it's plug and play cause when the package arrived it's just the GPU(along with the heatsink and some screw) and nothing else so there's no further instructions on whether I should update the vbios or the EC. After installing the GPU and boot up my laptop, my screen had weird pixelated colour and it's even distorted and resolution would stuck at . I try to install the Nvidia special driver from eurocom & from Nvidia website(this one doesnt read the 980m and its the latest one march 2015). After installing the eurocom driver my screen would hang at the window starting screen not even reach the logon page of window however there is sound and i can login just that the screen would hang. I even reformat my laptop and it still shows the same issues so software is not the issue. At least until I installed back my 7970m then the screen is back to normal. There's also the issue that the heatsink on top on the Nvidia die where you have to screw 4 screws, well one of the screws holder(label 1) is not screw in all the way unlike the rest of it. This is really sad and I was really looking forward to the performance boost. Hopefully @PrinceJ can sort it things out for me

Hi Isolation13,

I pm you the instructions.

ILLEGEAR D series is the world's first gaming laptop embedded with Intel 4th Generation desktop processor.

Does this laptop future proof and friendly to DIYer ? Like self gpu or cpu modding

Hi Cap Jones,

Are you talking about the D series? The D series feature LGA 1150 socket and MXM module, it's possible to change both your CPU and GPU in future.

What's the major difference between D5 and RS-15 ? On the fence between this two model .

hi Cap Jones.

the D5 is one of our latest models. it is using desktop processor compared to the RS-15. the D5 has better disply screen : 15.6" Full HD Anti-glare Display IPS/AHVA Wide Color Gamut & Viewing Angle (1920 x 1080) and its ugradable compared to Rs-15.
