Lol whats wrong yr laptop?
*
with the price and specs, i was hoping for the laptop to be fully functional for at least 1 year 6 months or more.

Just after a year of using it (bought it on July,2013) , it started to lag and overheated.

I mean, with dual fans and always be in an air-conditioned room (average 18-20'C temp) , how can that happened after only using it for a year ?

The games that i played was Dota 2, Dota, BF3 & NFS : Rivals.

Tried to play bf4 but the lap cant handle it.. after a while , even NFS cant play no more.

Sent it to service and the performance improved but the dual fans kept on spinning like twister.

Reformatted the laptop and now i only uses it for work & dota 2.

i am not a gig or pro in techs, but i expect with that kind of specs & price, at least it should be more tougher .

i d k

anyone can help me to fix that thing ?

Maybe rog series need some serious attention from asus since theyre more pricey compare to others and their build looks cheap tho.

I just sold my a55v two days ago. It was the best laptop i had so far. Quality build. However the keyboard gets quite warm occasionally when playing dota (without ac) and the fan getting loud lately. Also, getting laggy and response getting slow.Probably too old .Otherwise is a good laptop.

how old was your a55v ?

I m having the same experience as yours.

planning to sell it off... should i ?
