GTX960 version are expensive, With RM3930 is a reasonable price. If you want to check whether you overpaid, you can refer to the ASUS Product guide magazine. The selling price usually lower or same with what stated in the magazine. if more than that then... sue the seller.  cool2.gif

he siad his profit margin only like 100 bucks so i assume ok la. now trying to console myself and tell myself that the upgrade from 860 to 960 is worth it.

...thats money that could have bought 200-300 roti canai w/out gst..

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

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?

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
4GB cukup already...And I bought this laptop just to use Microsoft Office and web browsing only, i wont use it for gaming haha

I bought in PC Image Sarawak branch...

when you upgrade to 12GB ram, the warranty wont void ka?

if thats the case then yeah i suppose! walao. if i knew sarawak had it that cheap wouldn't have flown to kl to buy ToT
