ya tats y u am waiting for the reviews and 3Dmark...x2600 lol

price is quite ouch for the wallet

yup .. so now is to save up ... but need to keep track to the technology ..i am still satisfied wit my current lappy .. so i think ok guaa .. i juz played 5hours of CnC 3 on my x1400 ..no heat problems yet ..bravo ..

My S73g is quite hot too but so far no sudden shutdown ever occur yet. Is better to pump it up and use it under the warranty period so if your processor melted or any problem then you get a new lappy
The only game that I play on mine is just mahjong
Most of the time I use it to write code and photoshop

Just wonder the fan got spin or not or the heat sink got install correctly bo.

Yap and need to clean it once in awhile too, just need to remember don't broke the void warranty seal on the fan.
Since still on warranty, don't want to do much modification.

Anyway, is your R55 also release that much heat as well?

i think both R55 n S73G also kinda hot 1 .. ^ ^

it is weird lol ..i use my acer x1400 for gaming and surfing while my s73G for working out photoshops and programming while s73g has x1600 ..lol ..i gues i m a mild gamer ..x1400 still can play the games i play. .hehe

It generate more heat when in gaming. Others just feel warm on arm rest there. At least it never hang in game. Later on ll try the CnC T3. Hehe..Dunno can support or not.

there is one forummer using his v3200 series Compaq with GMA950 also can play CnC 3 lol ..all set to lowest setting and the shader must set to SEcond... coz First would crash as claimed ..

so i guesscan play hehe ... even a gma can play ma

i think should be can play 1 lar ...
but dono nice or not lar ...

Playing CnC 3 in low setting = no meaning lo. Better play zero hours. Haha..cos CnC 3 famous in 3D ma so we set the graphic to high. U playing this game now? Fun or not?

i also think like tht ..
no meaning .. right ??
not nice game play already ..

i terpaksa downgrade my ram back to original specs. while running mem test at the shop, 2 512 nanya sticks is cooler than running 1 1gig kingston apparently, damn weird
so i traded it back in, and swapped it for a external hdd and also added abit more cash and got myself an evercool magic side cooler.
right now temp is around 57C with charger plugged in and charging
any of you upgraded your ram?
can you tell me what kind of ram you used?

i dont even have games installed on besides what windows give
i oso dunno ah about that but i did a test compare the heat on the bottom of the notebook with and without the notepal and its definately cooler with the notepal, my bad on the logic i guess

will consider if heat remains crazy


my room is quite a warm room actually, need to use 2 fan to keep cool sometimes since if i open the window dust, smoke and noise from the highway will come into my room. i still open it at night or when its raining though.

more better if got air cond ..

ya i played a bit ..but kinda bz ..so maybe later onli continue le ...hehe ..for those gma ..they can play the game already happy ma ..hehe .. some ppl can bear wit the graphics but sum can't .... up to themself ..

for normal user .. should be more than ok already lar .. ^ ^

LoL..thats mean i m abnormal lo? just kidding la.
