WHats the benefits of IPS except wided angle?
btw who the hell see the monitor from side?

my right 2 usb ports tend to stop working after a certain percentage of battery left, and it cant even detect the usb bluetooth connector for my mouse..

driver uninstall and reinstall done..but still fail

and solution for this?

How to check for this
they emailed me that the unit is ready
so when i go for pick up what do i need to check har?

I dowan go there twice lehhh, so far

My assumption is motherboard problem..only way to confirm is to take to illegear..headphone all ok

I dont think so..if bios it would have shown since i first bought it...didnt change anythung at bios also.

Now i encounter always..the right two ports permanent fail to detect

Have been following this up for almost a month and a half. In the end, the MVP , Patrick, told me that I might get hardware failure issue.

Here's my experience. Sometimes I got black screen after BIOS , and BSOD of DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE happened.

If I'm not mistaken, I carry in this laptop at 22-Dec last year. I got my first BSOD at 1st Jan. Here's my record.

1 Jan - twice
3 Jan - once
14 Jan - once
15 Jan - twice
22 Jan - once
26 Jan - once
5 Feb- once
10 Feb - once
15 Feb - once

FYI, I'm in Penang and currently working. It's really hard for me if you asked me to carry-in the laptop to the outlet.

Somehow around 22 Jan I asked for help at Sysnative forum, enabled verifier (details please refer to the link above) , find out the culprit was RealSpeed.exe from Realtek, the WinpkFilter inside it. I uninstalled it, the BSOD issue during boot up still persisted. 

Now it might be a hardware issue, but Chin stated before that if it's a hardware issue, it should be getting BSOD every few minutes.

Any suggestion what I could do now?

I am getting power state failure all the time. drivers updated to the latest, same goes to OS. After I uninstalled the RealSpeed. exe I thought the issue should be solved but then its not.

Can I know again why exactly the need to uninstall realspeed?

If I gotta head down to KL, I need to back on that day. So maybe early in the morning I go to the outlet , left my laptop there, evening I visit to take back. Is this okay for you?

got a few questions regarding this z5 after reading 39 pages

1 - hows the battery? is it easy to take out? coz it is bad fr battery right if overcharge

2 - it is easy to reach the fan? just to DIY cleaning the fan

3 - is the USB thing happened to every user?

4 - how about the BSOD thing?

this is bcoz im not staying near to the service point and wouldnt able to send to service point when there is an error

wanna think of these issues before i proceed

really? just scared read few pages back 8.1 keep have bsod ones.

only interest with 8.1 due to windows 10 coming else i stick with 7. but since u not encounter problems i guess bsod only to certain ppl.. thanks for clarify

seriously? afaik win7 cannot even upgrade to win8 for free.

this i dont know.. ya will use genuine on z5.. thanks for info

Today i went to illegear to check my fail usb ports and the broken hinge cover..

Their customer service was top notch..left my laptop there at 11am and at 2pm already done by replacing the whole motherboard and new hinge cover..all problem with usb solved..and the beast z5 is back kn track..and damn fast fix so i no need to go back to semenyih and make another trip another day

Thanks Prince J for the a+ customer service and for layaning my friends ahhahaha

Asus should learn how to handle customer service like u guys

TQ bro, great to hear that your problem solved.

another question before jump in as well

is z5 UPGRADABLE? meaning in future can add in better GC,  who knows.....haaaah 

can upgrade my z5 screen to 4k igzo?

wanted to do a disassemble video, but i think this video already proves how easy it is to disassemble the bottom cover which gives access to all components of the z5...i got nothing more to show dy by making my own video

disassemble starts from 15.59 ddr3

My ILLEGEAR Z5 left speaker seems to have pecah sound...
ILLEGEAR can fix this?

Finally got my z5!. But... Seems like it cant connext to unifi... However, i have no problems connecting to other wifi... Compatibility issue?

My Z5 arrived but cant feel it yet.. Fcuk. Cant wait to go back now

Hey guys, I noticed a pattern while getting BSOD during boot up.

If I plugged in before I open the laptop, it most probably get an BSOD ( First boot of the day).

To justify this, I tried power on z5 before I plugged in to power source. This grant me 7 days without a BSOD and still counting.

Just an experience talk, I'll try for longer period and report back.

2 more days?? Why ?
