How is Acer's warranty like? Is their after sales services good?

Refer by this short review,i just got my unit.. thanks bro @storm88 !

As long as it under warranty,highpoint services are ok bro. But i think dell support are better.

Hi Storm,
Very good review. Most reviews did not mention that the Hard drive isn't screwed into the casing.
One question, are the heat sink pipes aluminium or copper? Would it be a good idea to repaste the CPU & GPU with a better paste like diamond or artic when it's new or wait til a year later?
Heard that this laptop only has 1 year warranty. but can be extended, correct?

Most laptop are copper heatsink but sprayed to black color.

I would wonder does palm rests area color will dirt off?

Having bad experience on inspiron 15 last time.

It's been around since October.

You may view the Battlefield 4 video.

overall the thing runs hot, really hot.

on the plus side, the keyboard material keeps most of the heat away from your fingers.

May i know whats the highest temperature recorded?

as mentioned ........

Thanks for the info, is there other better alternative for Acer Aspire V15?
Im getting a laptop this week, not too sure regarding which to choose, im having Acer Aspire , Illegear , Asus and Dell on my mind which have a graphic card of Nvidia 850 GTX and above.

Can advise or suggest to me?

Thanks!

For this price range, the V Nitro is my favorite.

I just read your whole review. Thanks a lot for posting.

But I have a question though...You mentioned about the GTX860M being equivalent to GTX750 desktop gpu. Do you know if an old GTX560Ti has the same performance to those 2? or weaker?

if upgrade warranty into 3 years, I bet price would be different. which almost same with Illegear Z5, just my 2cent

yes, only 1 option for upgrade , acer supercare 2, RM 298
so it make the price 3399 + 298 = 3697

560 Ti would be behind those 2 in terms of performance.

I too am having the same problem. Need to select between an Acer VN15 Nitro with 2 year extended warranty for RM3499 with not credit card surcharge, or a Gigabyte P27g V2 with the promo (additional diamond past, calibration, 128GB MSATA SSD) for RM3999 not including credit card surcharge (probably an additional 2%).

What I like about the Gigabyte P27G V2
1. Its supplied by illegear which has a good reputation for aftersales service. PrinceJ always replies very fast & very
friendly.
2. Has a MSATA SSD.
3. Diamond paste.
Not like, have to buy unseen as I am in Penang & illegear is in KL.

What I like about the Acer VN15.
1. No credit card surcharge.
2. Can get it in the shop in Penang.
3. No bling, bling.
Not like, the sales guy admitted that Acers have a short lifespan. About 3 years or so. & a lot of complaints about the service center tidak apa attitude.

Any advice guys in choosing which one?
Thanks,

But I heard Nivdia 950-970 series is coming out very soon, possible Jan 2015 and i heard is a much more better graphic card than Nvidia 860 GTX. So if you are not hurry to get it, i think is better to wait i guess.

I got budget constraint. Was targeting RM3500~RM4000. Don't know if the new laptops are going to be in this price range or not. Plus my old lappie needs to be replaced. .
Just worry about the reliability for Acer VN15 vs Gigabyte P27gV2.

Thanks,

Which shop in penang got Acer VN15? I also need to find one.
