I just bought my Asus G551JW.
RM3699. That model comes with GTX960M. And I see some other places still selling the old GTX860M model for rm4200, i don't know whats the difference here. And I also thought GTX960M model is around rm3900 above....I saw mine at rm3699, direct grab lol Please last me for few years, Asus... |

Correction towards why my unit is more cheaper. This unit is sealed when I bought it, it comes with a big black box of Asus ROG, inside the box contains one bag and another laptop box. All sealed as well.
I just checked online at Lowyat Garage sales. My laptop comes with GTX 960M 2GB, and 4GB ram. Cost RM3440 online price before GST. Including the 6% GST, the price is 3649, I get it at a fair price. The unit that comes with GTX960M 4GB and 8GB ram is a lot expensive....rm4k |

QUOTE(jasonsuna1 @ Jul 15 2015, 07:39 PM) Welcome bro! Good for you. Remember Buy only Seal Set, real seal set with OEM STICKER not sellotape ya. Thanks a lot bro! And thanks for the recommendation the other day about not to buy Acer and Lenovo, so I decide to try out my luck on Asus....as of now, the ROG feels really solid, hopefully it can last me long enough with that 2 years warranty haha, and yes, my unit box is sealed with OEM sticker lol Never go for display unit, some time the price is far cheaper than usual, or maybe they din't even tell you, you can spot if its seal set or not. The margin still there no matter how much they sell you. How to spot higher margin, the more the notebook expensive, the higher the margin. back to 2013, A G750JX margin is up to RM400 by selling RM5499. So same thing applied. The market price Is RM3199 for GL552JK, they sell you RM3100, they still have the margin. You know what i mean.  QUOTE(winkytoe @ Jul 16 2015, 07:21 PM) haha we got the same spec but i upgraded my ram to 12 gb because i thought 4gb memang tak cukup. the cost was actually 37++ i think.... where did you buy? 4GB cukup already...And I bought this laptop just to use Microsoft Office and web browsing only, i wont use it for gaming hahaI bought in PC Image Sarawak branch... when you upgrade to 12GB ram, the warranty wont void ka?

QUOTE(Angel01 @ Jul 18 2015, 10:59 AM) Hi guys, i am considering GL552 or 551 for some work and Dota 2 purpose only. Can anyone recommend which and best price i can get these? I bought mine from PC Image Sarawak branch. New sealed set at RM3699. If I'm not mistaken, the GL552JX costs around rm3300 like that. I didn't choose GL552JX because of its chasis design, got some red design at the top part of the keyboard. I prefer Gl551jw design, simple and fully black. For GL552, i read some reviews saying there is screen flickering, thats what im worried about, also IPS Matte, i heard will not be able to keep up with gaming as well as the old TN? Not much idea about GL551 yet. @wilsonphua, where did you get your unit? 3699 is cheap compared to others right. But one thing I like about the GL552JX model, the back part of the laptop looks like a real Asus ROG. I believe the material is scratch resistant, whereas for my Gl551jw, the material easy to be scratched. Thats about the design...if talking about specs, im not so sure how big the difference between gtx 950m and gtx 960m when gaming http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-960M-vs-GeForce-GTX-950M brief comparison lol |
