QUOTE(neozlee @ Jun 12 2015, 10:27 AM) I thought OC laptop GPU are not recommended since the power delivery on the Mobo are not designed for OC-ing and the power supply does not have a lot of headroom to OC? I run my C code on linux sometimes 24/7 to simulate for my FEA so good cooling would be a plus since it pushes my CPU/ GPU to 100% at all 4 cores 8 threads. Gaming would be fine because it does not push it to the extreme conditions that I am about subject it to. That I know of, but I just reading this thread http://www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-G751JY-T...w.133178.0.htmlBy seeing all those negative comment, it scares the hell out of me to purchase it, so yeahhhhh  TBH i know nothing bout it n dun bother reading coz taiwan brand got QC issue for the newer models now... my recently just met my uncle in taiwan.. he bought n new unit n blackout on day 1(he bought 5 units).. mobo short circuit spoil .. lucky only his 1 major issue.. other hv minor like touchpad issue... i think they rush the production..
