HI to all FUTURE BUYER of ILLEGEAR PERFORMANCE laptop).
I just wanna give a quick review regarding this Superb company.

I bought my 2nd gaming laptop with them 1 year ago. Recently, i got a problem with the laptop which it always shutdown suddenly. Then i contacted Illegear support team. My Problem solved within less then an hour meeting them.

What a superb service from the ILLEGEAR support team. icon_rolleyes.gif I dropped a report to their team member in January, but i rarely online, so i delayed it until march. LOL.. but hey, they straight away contacted me and arrange a suitable day for me to bring my laptop to be checked. blush.gif

What happened was, i received a totally awesomely awesome (not to much exaggerate rite? LOL) service from them. We met at the Plaza AUG if im not mistaken. I forgot already the place name because im not from PJ. Waited just for 15minutes, then he arrived in a full ILLEGEAR uniform. Nice Uniform Man!!!! Just Like Their SERVICE and LAPTOP.

I told him all the problem i faced, then he tried everything he could do. We ran several system and it seems like no problem. Then when he opened up the laptop to check the thermal paste, then we found up the problem already. The thermal paste was hardened and that was the main problem actually. So, i help him to clean up the thermal paste and he did reapply the thermal paste for me. He did it in front of me and i can say that, he is a very skillful technician, i mean a very professional technician regarding ILLEGEAR laptop.

So, guys, i just wanna say that, the ILLEGEAR service is totally SUPERB and AWESOME. No other brand can beat them. Maybe DELL? i Think, this one is much more better and FRIENDLY.

All in all, i would say that, please do buy laptop from them IF!!!
You are looking for a HI-END performance laptop and A VERY SUPERB AFTER SALE SERVICE... Yeah.. now i can play game that i loved very much.. rclxm9.gif

Congrats ILLEGEAR.. Hat off for you guys. notworthy.gif Keep it up!!!

You should use the dampers and screw to minimise movement and hold it in place.

Try to search for the guide on the net on how to do it.

Remember to search for the Clevo Model of the RE-15.

Thank you Illegear for the great response. Email-ed them about fan and got a reply to it real quick. Got it diagnosed and they told me it was normal. Marc even took out and checked and replaced the thermal paste for me. Kudos to Illegear!

A brand I would definitely recommend to everyone else.

Hi Prince,
The new RE-17 specs look nice. Any photos to share?
Also is the RE-17 based on the Clevo W370SS?
Saw a review for that here but not sure if it is similar to your RE-17.
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Clevo-...k.114640.0.html

Also, for the Seagate 500GB Solid State Hybrid Drive, what exactly is this?

May I ask, is there anything like the ILLEGEAR RE-17, that you're offering for RM3899, but with say, upgradeable GPU?

Or I have to go with a different model altogether?

I'm just curious, since I'm planning to buy a laptop with support for upgradeable GPU (I'm planning to upgrade the GPU every 2 years, for the next 4 years, assuming Illegear models DO support this)

Dear hyperyouth,

We can't guarantee you will be able to upgrade GPU in future. However, you may check out ILLEGEAR RS-17 http://store.illegear.com/rs-series/13-illegear-rs-17.html with MXM connector, you have higher chance of doing so successfully in future.

Hi, thanks for the fast reply.

May I ask then is the GPU soldered on to the motherboard on the RE-17, or is it replaceable, if there is a need to replace due to say, damage, or defect?

RX-17 will always be upgradeable. I changed it to RE-17 as per my original question. Sorry!

Due to overwhelming demand, the lead time of ILLEGEAR laptops order has temporarily increased to 3-5 business days. Moreover, some of our ILLEGEAR models are zero in the inventory: RK-17, RE-13 Pro, RE-15 EVO, RS-15 and RX-17 EVO.

We are trying our best to restock from the factory and hopefully they will arrive our warehouse sometime next week.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Hi bugb34r,

Simply put, the more sticky the thermal paste the longer it lasts. IC Diamond is one of the most sticky thermal compounds we have ever used so far. It can last 1 to 2 years depending on your usage.

The ILLEGEAR RS-17 EVO is built with a more "flashy" approach, as you can tell by the various lights around the speaker bar, keyboard and mouse pad, etc.

Hi Eyern,

I7-4710MQ is a newer processor but i7-4702MQ has better battery life (37w vs 47W).

The i7-4702MQ is more expensive from Intel factory.

That part is dark grey, a bit darker than the photo on the right side.

If you don't like the palm rest color you can choose to paint it, we have options to paint half body or full body on our website.

Nvidia GTX 870M 6GB GDDR5 is currently out of stock on ILLEGEAR RS-15, RS-17 EVO and RX-17 EVO.

ILLEGEAR RU-14 PRO inventory level is extremely low, hence the price gets back to normal.

On 25 October 2013, the Government of Malaysia had announced the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) as part of the country’s aim to form an effective, transparent and fair tax structure.

National tax legislation requires businesses with an annual turnover of more than RM500,000 to register for the GST. In line with that, we wish to inform you that ILLEGEAR will be registering for the GST, which will take effect in Malaysia from 1 April 2015 at a rate of 6%.

Visit gst.customs.gov.my or call the Royal Malaysian Customs Department (RMCD), manager and administrator of GST implementation in Malaysia, at 1300-888-500 for GST-related information.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch with us at 03-76100987 or email us at billing@illegear.com if you have enquiries.

How can Illegear RX-17 EVO accommodate 2x Nvidia GTX 980M 8GB GDDR5 in SLI mode without overheating? Here are the tricks. The beast only uses 100% copper heatsink and heatpipe; each GTX 980M is served with triple heatpipe, individual heatsink, individual BIG fan and individual air vent.

We just ran a 45 min Furmark burn-in test with Illegear Z5. We've got maximum temperature of 66 degree Celsius on Nvidia GTX 860M with Dual-heatpipe, dual-vent and duat fan cooling system. Impressive isn't it? http://www.illegear.com/products/illegear-z5/

*
Z5
More GPU VRAM: 4GB
Has one subwoofer, better speakers
More stylish
Dual fan, dual vents, dual pipe: Cooling is about 8 to 10 degree Celsius lower than RE-15 EVO (it doesn't mean RE-15 EVO cooling is bad, 75C is considered very good too)
Lighter, slimmer

RE-15 EVO
More expandability (3 ram slots, 2 SATA slots + 1 mSATA slot)
Some extra features (with Soundblaster Cinema etc)
It has DVD rom (Z5 doesn't have DVD rom)

Appreciate the info.
The z5 has better cooling performance while
the RE-15 has more capability for expansion.

Z5 use Intel chipset while RE-15 is built on Clevo W355SSQ
How does the these 2 chipset compare?

No. Both models use Intel HM87 chipset, the W355SSQ is motherboard model name.

I see. I am shopping for a performance i7 machine, none of the U processor.
The cost is high so I might wait for next round of promotion discounts.
Definitely this year before Govt-Serve-Tax.

3. How is the keyboard like?
4. What is the difference between the Gigabyte warranty & the stock Illegear warranty?

Thanks,

Nvidia (Maxwell) GTX 860M 4GB GDDR5 vs 2GB GDDR5, does it matter?
"Monolith recommends a 6GB GPU for the highest possible quality level - and we found that at both 1080p and 2560x1440 resolutions, the game's art ate up between 5.4 to 5.6GB of onboard GDDR5. Meanwhile, the high setting utilises 2.8GB to 3GB, while medium is designed for the majority of gaming GPUs out there, occupying around 1.8GB of video RAM."

ILLEGEAR Z5 has a very BIG subwoofer and it's so far the best subwoofer which can produce deepest bass among all ILLEGEAR laptops.

Hi, I was looking for a future proof laptop for some time now, as some of you might have reply to me back in the recommendation thread. I was tempted with this but the one thing that gripes me is the justification of the price/specification/performance ratio.

I know that "you pay for what you get" principle, but I just can't seem to find a reason to justify it. For example the Z3 starting price is RM 3799 with 8GB RAM, 500 GB RAM, without RAID, OS and comes with 2 year warranty. But top it up with OS, RAID-1 with 2*128 GB mSATA SSD, 1 TB SSHD, AC WiFi adapter and the price is a whopping RM 5500.

Considering my Toshiba laptop was bought at a price of nearly RM 3000, which the specs may not be as high as the Z3, is there, I mean, seriously, there a justification to the pricing/specification/performance ratio to the point that such a trade off is worth it??

Hey richard1226,

The Z5 starting price is RM3799 and the default configuration is good enough for common gamers. If you wanted to addon 2x 128gb msata ssd, AC premium WLAN card and 1TB SSHD the price will definitely go up a lot.

Considering the Z5 has Maxwell GTX 860M 4GB GDDR5, big subwoofer and 8 cell battery, it's not expensive at all.

Hi kazairol,

16.7mm is the thickness of the screen + bezel. 43.1mm is the thickness of the laptop plus rubber feet height.

Copper is three times more expensive than aluminium, then why must gamers go for copper heatsink? Copper has excellent heat sink properties in terms of its thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, biofouling resistance, and antimicrobial resistance. Copper has around twice the thermal conductivity of aluminium and faster, more efficient heat absorption. (Pic credit to ILLEGEAR Z5 heatsink)

Any thoughts on S5?

Planning to get it but am a lil bit concern with GTX 970M 3GB only GDDR5.
Future-proof wise in gaming (~3 years)?
Also, is 8GB RAM sufficient?

Hi noel91,

GTX 970M is a beast regardless of 3GB/6GB version.

And yeah for better future proofing, I suggest you to get GTX 970M 6GB GDDR5 in RS-15.

ILLEGEAR Z5 and S5 face severe shortage of IPS/AHVA wide color gamut and viewing angle displays. We are trying our best to restock from factory, ETA is next week. If you are in urgent need, please go for the default 15.6" Full HD Anti-glare display, you can come back to us for upgrading the screen in future.

Not so sure about designer laptop, but in term of spec, 4770HQ base frequency is slower than 4710.. but 4770 is w/ intel IRIS pro.. which i believe it has better performance when doing graphic design works..

I just noticed that the GTX 980m on S5 is just 4gb, how well does it fair against the 8gb version from RS-15 or RS-17?

Since I just placed an order for the S5 that I configured for RM7k+
Was thinking might as well just order the RX-17 EVO lol

Then again I'm not running at 4k so I think the 4gb should not make much different.
And the slimmer form factor of S5 is indeed enticing lol.

Hi awyongcarl,

Less amount of vram will make the cooling better, that's why we use 3GB/4GB 970M/980M in S series slim type laptops smile.gif

battery is non-removable on the Z5, if I remember correctly. However, it IS replaceable. Best to wait for TeamIllegear or Prince_J to clarify. There's also a Z5 thread.

PGA type processor and MXM GPU add thickness to the laptop, so these features are exclusive for thick models like RS and RX series.

Don't go for MXM GPU lar.. It's not easy for you to get MXM gc nowadays.. either you need to pre-order or the sales guy will offer you some OP price.. and sometime when you changed to a new GC.. your laptop architecture doesn't support will have a lot of problem..

So you going for which laptop wo actually ? S5 or AW ?

You talking about AW 15 right ?
16gb ram.. you do a lot stuff is it ?? VM ?

8gb is sufficient.. next time you can upgrade yourself.. and it's impossible to get SSD de lar.. m2 1 is too OP.. rm600+ for 256gb.. siao 1..
I can get 2 ram and 1tb hdd ad.. not worth..

Actually 1TB HDD 7200rpm is enough ad.. Win8.1 got hybrid shutdown so it boot fast enough.. you want so much read/write speed for what..
Just add it later on when the price drop.. biggrin.gif

Just I can notice the better contrast of my z5 cuz it's using IPS screen.. The rest macam same.. maybe my z5 screen mia icon or thing is smaller.. haha doh.gif

Nop.. definitely no.. If it's on ultra 4k settings, maybe can get 20-50 gua..
It depends on game.. try running it on Crysis 3 or AC IV/V.. or Watch Dogs..
Laptop gpu is not as good as desktop gpu.. desktop gpu so far max vram just 4gb..

So the 4k is just for kicks but if running game it will slow down ? hmm.gif
But can our eyes see 4k resolution ? I play game on ultimate / ultra setting like Tomb raider and Skyrim.. It will tired the eye when it's smooth and using very high texture.

Really burn my eye but the feeling is good for a smooth game man. rclxms.gif tongue.gif

Your card is gtx980m 8gb vram.. so it sure can play at ultra settings without any lag.. Your card is the highest end in laptop ad.. until now..
Most ppl won't recognize any different between 4k and 1080p.. but under some circumstances where there is a lot of detailed texture then maybe you can see the different..
And most game don't support 4k yet.. you can try your Skyrim on ultra 4k.. I think you're playing it on 1080p currently right ?
And yes.. it will decrease your performance if you play on ultra 4k.. Cause laptop gpu is not as good as desktop gpu..

And yes.. it will decrease your performance if you play on ultra 4k.. Cause laptop gpu is not as good as desktop gpu..

Even so.. Mobile is mobile after all. It's gaming on the move. At least I will be satisfied with the upcoming game especially GTA 5, the Witcher3 and latest Batman open world. cool.gif

I think laptop also won't notice much different ba.. So far I compare my z5 with my friend's 720p screen.. not much different.. lol
Just I can notice the better contrast of my z5 cuz it's using IPS screen.. The rest macam same.. maybe my z5 screen mia icon or thing is smaller.. haha doh.gif
What I'm concern now is SSD and ram.. Hope the price faster drop ar.. So i can upgrade..

So the 4k is just for kicks but if running game it will slow down ?  hmm.gif
But can our eyes see 4k resolution ? I play game on ultimate / ultra setting like Tomb raider and Skyrim.. It will tired the eye when it's smooth and using very high texture.

Really burn my eye but the feeling is good for a smooth game man.  rclxms.gif  tongue.gif

If I need to sacrifice FPS for a 4k resolution.. I rather NOT use 4k Resolution at all cause there is not so much game support 4k resolution and if it does.. it will be hard to notice it only you will notice the lag of the game most of the time.

so far not sure how will it be
cause what i can say if u are not play offline game
play casual game gtx 970m is more than enough
why i go gtx 970m rather than 860m is because
future no need so fan to update anything can use amplifier
but as u say who know future it will support what
but since they say gtx 980 desktop card also can support
so future hope can mod psu then support more powerful card

Hi

We have 4% surcharge for 6 month installment and 5% for 12 month installment.

For e.g. RM5000 x 1.05 divided by 12 = RM437.50/mth

RM437.50 is your monthly payment to Maybank.


As for cyclonekid, we will reply you within today smile.gif

Wheres with other laptops most probably you will see the CPU throttle to < 1Ghz under

I have a genuine question (since this is a thread for all Illegear users anyway)


Do you folks use any cloth / fabric in between the screen and the keyboard? I know Illegear laptops don't come with anything with default (I clean the screen because of the lines that appears often after closing the lid)


Any users want to kindly share?

Hi guys, need some advice here:

I need a laptop that can play GW2 and Planetside 2 and has a good screen that will allow me to process my images (I sold my MBA precisely because I couldn't get much detail out of the screen) as well as be portable enough to be lugged around to uni and into libraries.

I'm interested in the RE-13 Pro, anyone have any reviews on it?(especially battery life while not gaming)

Should I get it with the CNY promo? Or possibly wait longer until the 960m version is out?

Also, is the 72% color gamut going to be enough for image processing? I am by no means a professional though.

Dear decky,

RE-13 PRO battery life is about 3 to 3.5 hours in normal surfing mode.

And yeah the GTX 860M can play GW2 and Planetside 2 smoothly.

72% NTSC is enough, please note macbook pro retina display is also NTSC 72% gamut.

Thanks for the prompt reply!

Do clevo models vary in terms of battery performance? According to some reviews, the battery life on normal use was about 5 hours.

I would go for a 15 inch model at this point if the battery life of the 13 isn't that great.

Hi Decky,

Only ILLEGEAR RU-14 PRO (Clevo W740SU) has 5 to 6 hour battery life. Other clevo models in our store cannot.

Our Z5 (15.6") has about 4 hour battery life with 8-cell battery, you can consider this model smile.gif

Hi hurrnet,

If possible please film a short vid of beeping sound to support@illegear.com it can help us to check the problem.

Just wondering what was the outcome for the case above? I 've faced a similar issue on my RX-17 and already sent in for check yesterday, got an email today that it will be sent to Clevo for further checks. Any eta on this?

Did enquire support but no replies on the eta. I do some photography work on the side so need an estimate when can I get it fix or alternatively I 'll source a backup comp for myself.

On a side note, I do have to commend your team for being fast and responsive! *cough* although there was the thing about you guys not wanting me to come up to your empire office yesterday due to a media event *cough*! And met me in the lobby to collect instead. Nevertheless, the rx 17 has been a smooth running beast since I bought it a year ago.... Untill the beeping and death of it couple days ago! Hope it gets fix soon!

Was firing up a game (not a very gpu taxing game - jagged alliance flashback) and just clicked options when the whole thing went down. That being said I noticed it being warmer and the fan louder than usual a week before it died. Initially thought it just needed servicing to clean out dust but probably a sign of sorts If it helps!

Hmmmm. Maybe it overheated and cooked?

Even though I used IC Thermal Diamond when I bought it, I since change it to Gelid GC Extreme now. When I wanted to change the thermal paste, It was actually too dried up and flaky already.

Hope you can find out what is wrong for your laptop.

Been using my S5 with GTX 980m for a while and notice there is one issue with running games with it.
So far I only played Starcraft 2. Diablo 3, Resident evil 4 HD, Resident Evil 5 and Dota 2 with it and I notice the same issue in every single games of these.

For the most part, it runs them perfectly, but once in a while, the FPS will drop to 40-ish from constant 60FPS for no apparent reason. I notice this the most on SC2. Diablo 3 and Dota 2. Just all of a sudden, for no reason, ie there isn't much thing going on, just regular character moving in Dota 2 in an empty lane and I notice the FPS drop/slow down. Same goes to Diablo 3, just walking in the town, then the FPS can suddenly slowdown to 40-45ish for several seconds then it goes back to 60fps.

I've kept the GPU driver updated and make sure it's in maximum performance mode but doesn't seems to solve the issue.

Any idea?

Well actually I want to Underclock instead of Overclock. I want to lower the clockspeed and memory bandwidth sometime as the game doesn't requires all very high spec to play on highest settings.
I did it in previous driver and it works like a charm. Decreased GPU temperature by 5-12 degree C

Go to geforce.com. Look for the Drivers tab, look for your GPU in the drop down tabs and download the one marked for Dying Light Game Ready Driver. Download it and install.

I've got reports that NVIDIA is clamping down on this for some reason. Even for users, some underclocked it only to find it becoming unstable.

Well maybe they underclock it too much.. Some ppl tend to straight away OC or UC by big margin without even testing it on low value first.. lol

Rolled back to 344.75, can overclock but didn't really solve the random slowdowns :/

Seriously this isn't some hardware problem or what is it? I refuse to accept the fact that I spent 6k+ on this machine with GTX 980m only to find that it can't even run Dota 2 smoothly at 60fps lol

Did you try to check on your PC wither running on Turbo or power saving mode?

Sometimes, because it is running on power saving mode, it will throttle back. In which, it will cause the problem.

This happen to me before on Alienware M15 where I accidentally hit power saving mode and didn't realise it.

Solution: Go to power management, turn off all the power savings mode.

I've already made sure the computer is running at maximum performance mode :/

I even tried using ThrottleStop, doesn't seems like the CPU is throttled too.
I tried Furmark, the GPU usage is 98-99% so doesn't looks like there is any throttling going on with the GPU. Do tell if something is wrong with the score from Furmark.

Any clues? I'm kinda disappointed if this is actually the hardware limitation which I find honestly, is a big joke. GTX 980m has issue running a 2 years old game which a 1.5k cheap desktop can run flawlessly -.-

May I know you purchased a DOS version or ???
What OS you are using ? Win7 ? Win8 ? Linux ?
You're playing Local Lobby Match or Pub/MMR ? Cause I also facing some problem on my Z5 with 860m. I won't get 60fps with smooth screen transition on Lobby Match. But when it is Pub or MMR it performs smoothly. Smooth screen transition + fixed 60fps
Does playing other game still have the same problem ? Like COD, BF etc etc
Test without OC-ing your CPU and GPU, mostly throttle is caused by OC-ing. Lower your resolution to 1080p if you're running the game at 4k initially. 980m CAN'T run game on 4k reso smoothly.

It comes with Windows 8.1
Any modes I tried has the same weird slowdown at random intervals. Even watching games gives me the same issue.
Playing any other games gives me the same issue, yes. I tried L4D2, Ace Combat Assault Horizon, Crysis 2, Resident Evil 4 HD, Resident Evil 5, and some of these games are generations old even old fart 285GTX can run them smoothly without problem :/

Btw, I also tried running the games at lowest setting, same thing.
All games are running at 1920x1080 only. No 4k.

I did not overclock both GPU and CPU.

By the way, I noticed that the GPU usage does not go beyond 50% when I play Dota 2, and the temperature does not go beyond 62 centigrade. What the F? It's like the GPU isn't really working like it should lol

If your Z5 with 860m can run Dota 2 smoothly out of the box, then something is very very very wrong with my S5 with 980m :/
Perhaps I should send it back to Illegear and have them to look at it. Sigh. What a luck.

Well if you're having a powerful GPU, I guess it is possible your gpu usage doesn't go beyond 50%, as the gpu is already has enough horse power to render everything without full loaded it. Temperature is normal for me, I played 2hours+ BF4 and COD AW and max temperature I get is 69 degree for both cpu and gpu (will max fan). S5 come with trifan so it should do better for old game.

But I think it maybe an hardware issue, just pm ILLEGEAR to have them assist you. Or check whether your nvidia card is running when gaming or not.
But how come you can furmark and benchmark without having the issue ? It seems weird, cause if it is an hardware issue, you won't perform well and most probably will also face the similar problem when you perform benchmark or furmark. hmm.gif

Yea.. Weird right ? you can furmark without any throttling and your "sudden random slowdown interval" but when you're gaming it occurs.
Hardware issue I think you will perform badly on both, but this is not the case. hmmm
No choice but to send it to ILLEGEAR to have them check on it, ask them to test it with both your own OS and their OS.
Make sure to back up your stuff.

Hi awyongcarl,

According to the conversation I guess this issue is related to the Nvidia Optimus where the game switch your GPU to integrated graphics hence the FPS suddenly dropped.

You can try updating your Intel HD graphics driver, Nvidia graphics driver, adjust your power plan, adjust your Nvidia control panel performance setting:

1. Open NVIDIA control panel.
2. Manage 3D settings
3. Global settings tab
4. Power Management Mode settings, select "Prefer Maximum Performance"
5. Preferred Graphic Processor settings, change from "Auto select" to "High Performance NVIDIA Processor"

By the way, what OS version are you using?

I've done all that. still getting the same weird spikes :/

Windows 8.1

is there a way to disable the Intel Integrated graphics card and use only the dedicated GPU?
I remember doing something like that with another laptop in the BIOS setting but I can't seems to find that in S5's bios.

With Optimus, you're stuck with it, and no way to disable it in the laptop.

Which is why I got my Aorus X7 Pro, which ran off dedicated 970M SLI, and the onboard Intel GPU deactivated permanently. Optimus creates more problems than solution when you're treating your laptop as a purely gaming laptop connected to power plug all the time. Optimus only is useful when your gaming laptop is intended to double as a work laptop to extend battery life via switching to Intel GPU.

Extra benefit? Only non-Optimus laptops are expected to be able to take advantage of the upcoming mobile G-Sync feature, enabled once the drivers for mobile G-Sync is ready.

Maybe you can but having to do that or switching in and out of BIOS to do that, isnt what I call convenient. To each his own, I prefer no Optimus than having one at all. Optimus creates more problems for gaming on a gaming laptop than the sole convenience of prolonged battery life. For productivity laptops, you will need Optimus to enable you to work on your laptop longer.

Well laptop is not like desktop which got unlimited power supply, so I think it is essential to have this, but still it brings lots of problem sweat.gif

Who are you reassuring, yourself or other people? rolleyes.gif

The thing is, if you're lugging around laptops with high end discrete graphics, you're not be using it other than playing games or doing graphics-intensive activities that REQUIRES plugging in your power plug. And yes, I do expect a gamer to 100% game on his GAMING grade laptop, because that's the reason they bought a GAMING grade laptop. I do. If I bought an expensive GAMING grade laptop and use that to do spreadsheets or web surfing, I'd consider that a gross misuse and money poorly spent, I could've gotten a cheaper, longer lasting Ultrabooks than a GAMING grade laptop.

Well, relax. Don't get me wrong. I'm not denying your point of view. I just stated my opinion, that's all. No need to be so offended smile.gif
Even though you're purchasing a gaming laptop, it is still logical to think not all gamer play game once they turn on the laptop right ? It is like saying a gaming PC/Rig just can game, it can't do normal task like web surfing. Maybe the gaming portion is 99%, but there is still 1% portion which is for normal usage. And if you're a professional gamer, since you are required to plugged in to power supply, why not just get a PC ?
Well it is just my opinion. If I offended you, I apologize. Sorry smile.gif

Uh alright then, I'll see if I can drop by tomorrow noon time around 12-1pm?
May I know who to contact when I got there?

Jesus thank you so much man, thanks to you I just fixed the problem lol. (Updating to 1.03.03PM)
Dota 2 is now constantly stable at 60fps!

Tried with the Resident Evil 5 benchmarking, looks perfect as well!
As you can see in the "before" there are hiccups here and there but in the "After", it's perfect 60FPS!

Will do, but I'm just happy to find out the problem lol, thank you so much bro smile.gif
Though I have to say the new bios unlocks many useful setting in the BIOS, I much prefer this than the stock bios that has literally nothing to tweak sad.gif

If this voids the warranty, man that sucks. I remember the old Asus G1S and Alienware M15x stock bios has more setting to play with than this Illegear stock Bios -.-

Hey @PrinceJ, just wondering if my Sager np9150 that I bought from you 3 years ago(mid 2012)can be upgraded to the GTX980m(just wondering if it's possible since it's a Sager that I've bought from you before the RS-15 came out). Cause I'm just a little worry that vBios will get in the way of installing the card(unless it's just swapping out the old card with the new GTX980m card then it's all good).

I think my S5 may have a bad ram. I'm getting BSOD that says "Memory Management Error" very frequently since this morning. Ran the windows memory diagnostic and it says problem were detected. Guess I'll have to pay Illegear a visit very soon after all ><

Tried using memtest86, I've got 91k errors lol

EDIT:
I swapped out the Samsung 4gb ram, left 8gb (Team elite ram 4gbx2) in the system with dual channel, now testing and see if the laptop is stable. If it is then I guess this Samsung ram is faulty.

Hope your problem is solved soon, do update us on your progress.
But I think by default you're using 8gb ram dual channel right (team elite) ? In most cases, people want to add in ram, they will get them in bundle, because it ensure the rams is in most compatible state with each other.
If you go to any shop, you can see they are selling bundle ram which mostly comes in 2.

Note: is your Samsung 4GB ram same as your 4GB Team Elite ram ? as in clock speed etc etc. ? What OS you're using ?

An update from the RAM testing.
Yeap, I have confirmed that one of the 4gb Team Elite ram is faulty.

I've tested all 3 RAMS (2 Team elites, 1 Samsung)one by one and once I swap that faultyTeam elite ram out, everything runs perfectly. Can I just send the ram to Illegear for RMA lol, it's kinda inconvenient for me to part with my laptop.

Quite a lot of difference.

RE-15 EVO: 3 RAM Slots (24GB Max.), 2x SATA slots, 1 mSATA slot and 1 Fan.

Z5: 2 RAM Slots (16GB Max.), 1x SATA slot, 2x mSATA slot, 2 Fans, lighter and slimer.

Hi, sorry to ask,


I'm trying to install TeamSpeak, but I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong here.

I'm using TeamSpeak3, 64bit version.

After install, i assigned a hotkey (numerical keypad enter) as the "trigger".

When I tested it, nothing is recorded. If I recall correctly, the microphone for the RS-15 is located right next to the front facing camera module.


Any advices?

Aha. Found the solution.

Apparently, the REALTEK HD audio manager combines both the built-in-mic together with the "mic in" jack.

It would not be a problem, but in cases like TeamSpeak, it wouldn't recognize.

Solution:
Go to REALTEK HD audio manager
Go to device advance settings
select "separate all input devices".

Voila, built-in-microphone usable.



Note: very sensitive microphone. It was able to pick up my wife chatting on her phone next room, even though I can't listen to what she was saying, but the mic DID pick up the chatter. LOL.

Hey PrinceJ,

I bought a laptop during the CNY promotion but your free bags were out of stock. Has it been restocked yet?

Also, as the battery is non-removable (S15), any tips on maintaining battery life so it doesnt lose charge over time?

thanks

You need to pm Prince J your order number and they will ship it to you. ILLEGEAR announced the bag has been restocked not long ago.
I think it is S5 instead of S15. S15 is from Aftershock though.

I think it is S5 instead of S15. S15 is from Aftershock though.

Hi prince J, I would like to add my third RAM but I couldn't find the slot.

How much the service that I need to paid for the installation of RAM in the third slots. Too many screws to open .... sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

Note: I'm also looking for the latest BIOS for my current Illegear laptop ... please do quote the total price for flashing the BIOS too.



Here is my warranty detail:

Warranty from 19 April 2013 to 19 April 2016

Dead Pixel Insurance: 19 April 2013 to 19 May 2013

Thank you
