Doubt about the release date of ASUS G751JY in Malaysia[

I'm so curious about the release date of ASUS G751JY, the one with GTX 980M graphic card.
Anyone has any ideas about this?
I have found the G751JT (GTX970M) already released in Malaysia where some resellers like Tech Hypermart and Tech Armory started selling it.
Unfortunately, I found no traces for the G751JY (GTX980M version).

Anyone knows the release date for it? I can't wait to grab one for my own sake. Thank you so much!

still got people buy asus gaming rig? better u go compare gigabyte/clevo/illegear spec and price, much more value for money and better after service sales.

No idea.. but I saw one of my uni friend using the 980m version.. Most probably he bought it oversea as he's an international student.. it's damn huge sia

better buy buck for bing bang..hehe

Yea.. you're probably right.. clevo model is way cheaper and better IMO.. a lot oversea using clevo model also.. Illegear service is damn good and efficient

But at least Asus is cheaper than MSI.. This Asus model probably at most cost 7k.. MSI 1 with same spec will cost 7.5k++

there also aftershock lptop.. i look it better price for beast also

aftershock from sg right? lol next month or so i will sell my laptop as shown in the siggy and get a pc instead b4 the GST strike.

yes from SG.. but tech armor also dealer in mlysia..
yes better build beast now before songlap effective

Asus Malaysia service is the worst among all brands. Sharing from experience

this is support.. need 1 month to change spare part only

so what are you saying

do you agree or not agree with my comments

Asus product not really that bad i think :/ , i've experiance on sending RMA with my 2 different pieces of graphic card , and i got claimed in a month , but i dont know about laptop .

Yes bro I understand that the ASUS after sale service is suck. I do not expect much from its after sale service. I heard that its build quality is very good. Is that true? I did consider those you stated before, but the design, cooling itself is very important to me. I don't think it suit me.

Oic. Unfortunately we can't buy it through Amazon,Ebay and blablabla.... So sad that it's not legal ship to Malaysia..
I agree that its huge. And the design is gorgeous too.

It seems to be a true. Do you think the Asus Gaming laptop quality is up to standard? I would be appreciated for ur opinions. Thanks

I did considered to get a MSI GT72. After few months of consideration, I decided not to get it because of it's design of my main reason.
I have to agree that the features is great, after sales service is good, but it seems to be too pricey for me. I may save more money for future investment if i chosen G751.
I also did consider the MSI GS series. I do not feel good with its slim chassis. It got to be very hot during intense gaming.

After sale service is a very big issue here.. Please consider it seriously.. You can't guarantee your laptop won't fail in 1-3 years time right ? not even once..

It's very important especially for your case also.. you don't want to spend 6k+ but in the end can't claim for any warranty or ask for services right ? what for you spend the 6k ?

In my opinion you better review other laptop model first, like Illegear, Aftershock, Alienware or even Razer or Aorus.. Since you can afford a GTX980m laptop those other brand like Razer and Aorus is no problem for you

Illegear has very good service and their laptop is based on clevo model.. Clevo model is quite popular in other country and is well known. Aftershock is also similar with Illegear but with a cheaper price tag.. Not sure about their service though.. These 2 brand laptop mostly will not have any heat issue, you can see their benchmark or ask them to do it for you.. check it up at their office in KL area..

Alienware got good built quality but spec is well-known to be outdated and OP-ed.
Razer and Aorus is slim and well-known to have no heat issue.. but price is also very OP.

My boss is using GS70 Stealth Pro.. so far no heat issue heard from him.. it's a very good laptop.. just it's quite OP

Exactly, its after sale service is the only doubts for me.
I have done the review for all these brands before.
I'm personally can't accept the design of Illegear and Aftershock laptop. Since the design is extremely important to me.
For Aorus, I have tried the unit and viewed a lot of the reviews. Because of its SLI, it seems like having a very bad heat issue. It produces the most heat than other.
I'm currently using Alienware M14X. I love it's design and quality. I cant denied what you have said. I'm so disappointed with Alienware Malaysia. They still not able to renew its graphic to GTX900 series while MSI already did that long time ago.
For Razer, I completely have no ideas so i can't make any judgement. It's price tag definitely scare out of the freak of me. I'm actually not sure what will be the after sale service for Razer gaming notebook. Currently, I'm using Razer ouroboros, Razer Electra and Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2014. Past a few months, My Razer Ouroboros is malfunction suddenly, I have to send it to Singapore for RMA and it cost me RM70++ for shipping fee. I faint.
Furthermore, there is an issue i found, please review this post from cari:

Btw, what do you think of ASUS Gaming laptop build quality if we don't talk about its after sale service?

What if the temperate it gets during intense gaming like Battlefield 4, Titanfall and Dragon Age?
My friends claim the temperature went to 80+ Celsius. I'm not sure about this. Seems like i have to give it a try during the coming PC fair in Midvalley.

yes i agree asus is suck in service

Bro what happen to your case?

unfortunately not

things of the laptop will start getting spoil after aroun 1 year - when it is just ngamngam out of warranty

is it by design so that people will buy replacement? my answer after owning a few laptops from asus is it spoilts after warranty over, YES

If design really a matter for you.. then no choice.. But actually Illegear or Aftershock design is very good in long run.. you will get use to it very soon.. Asus ROG is not a good choice if you travel a lot.. Not like you gonna bring it to Starbuck and play game right ? Too eye catching for me..

You can ask Illegear rep here, Prince J for the model you want.. they can customize it for you.. like you maybe can select Z5 and ask to have 970m card installed, they will let you know it's do-able or not (make sure to tell them to benchmark it first)

I'm surprise Aorus and Razer is having heat issue. Cause they are the 2 brand which is good in thermal control for slim gaming laptop.. I not sure you can get Razer laptop from where, better ask sifu here.. For Aorus you can try it out at Illegear, they have a unit at there.. i think is X7. They also have gigabyte which is another gaming laptop brand.. quite decent also.. check it up

Alienware is memang like that, but what choice we have.. their built quality and service is really good.. and they sell so exp.. so they earn enough then don't feel like upgrading lo..

IMHO, Asus ROG in term of spec only is quite good.. excluding the bad image of their service and a bit OP compared to clevo model.. But I won't risk my luck as I may not or need a very stressful process to claim for warranty.. Asus ROG is not so portable also.. it's quite huge and heavy.. not good for traveling purposes..

Not sure.. didn't ask.. probably around there.. 70-80+ on gpu & 60-75+ on cpu.. it's normal for slim gaming laptop.. Acer V Nitro also go up to 70+ when under full load
If you want durable, get MSI GT series.. it has better thermal control as it's bulkier.. I think MSI GT series is good but price is OP..

So if I can bulk up to so much $ like you, I would go for clevo model or MSI GT series.. since MSI GT series seldom have problem.. All because, design is not an issue for me

my case take a long time just to change spare part only
about a month

seriously, i had a sager np8150 back then, that thing better than my current alienware, it had 2 fan, numpad, solid build, and great cooling, but the down side is, it is really really heavy, if stack the laptop + charger its around 4-5kg,

trust me, i tried alienware, sager, and got lenovo z50 in my family,

alienware, just so-so, the graphic card is the downside,

lenovo, great for multimedia, movie and such, the downside is not solid, press keyboard it feel shallow.

sager all good, except its really heavy.

give u some tips for good value gaming laptop:
1. dual fan
2. not SLI
3. not too heavy, i know ur logic is the bigger the better..but if like that better u buy a pc.
4. good service,dell service is top notch.
