Sure need stress test mana tau the CPU got problem. Very hard to diagnose if CPU got problem cause rarely CPU give problem. Better safe than sorry.
Well, cheers on Illegear QC team. ILLEGEAR Q5 Evo Thread, Performance on a Budget

QUOTE(wgn_white @ Jun 29 2017, 04:22 PM) My screen also cannot be dimmed, they asked me if I want to downgrade from 120Hz to normal 60Hz. Yea, i need a new laptop for long term use (a few years). The one Im using now (4-5 years already) is i7-4700mq, but the gpu is garbage. According to benchmark, i5-7300hq < i7-4700mq and it is not hyper thread too.I said proceed with 120Hz. It's good thing, that they informed you. We can make a well informed decision. This is what I like from Illegear. But weird that i7 7700HQ needed to be stress test. I thought it's a locked CPU and already being tested at the factory. But anyway, don't downgrade to i5 if it also a work laptop. If it's just for gaming, can lah. So what's your plan if you drop this order? ASUS ROG? Alienware? Razer Blade? But don't think Razer Blade available in Malaysia though. I think they bulk order all the parts, if unlucky will get defective units one. No idea on what to get. Illegear offered the most attractive specs for the price i can afford (i'm still a student fyi) |

QUOTE(ShadowFiendZXC @ Jun 29 2017, 04:12 PM) Hi ShadowFiendZXCSorry to make you upset with the out of stock situation. We have gotten tons of Q5 Evo i7 orders right after raya break and after fulfilling most of them, we actually don't have anymore stock to fulfill the orders which came in a bit late. For i7-7700HQ + 1050Ti combination, we also have Z5 to fulfill, if you are comfortable with the Z5, we can make some special arrangement to you. By the way, we will have 1 to 2 units of Q5 Evo with i7-7700HQ + GTX1050Ti to spare in two weeks time. This post has been edited by Prince J: Jun 29 2017, 04:41 PM |

QUOTE(ShadowFiendZXC @ Jun 29 2017, 03:59 PM) Smurfs I bought my Q5 evo for steam game only (csgo dota2 etc). Not a fan of those AAA titles. Hence I just grab the i5 version since I think I wont really fully utilize i7. I would say depends on your usage.xXAaronXx i5 + 1050ti or 17 + 1050ti? Besides gaming, i need the laptop to run some engineering related simulations Beside weird random mouse lag/ freeze (Probably is windows issue, will occur randomly when u click the windows button or you open and close some applications fast). Will upgrade SSD myself and fresh install windows 10 to see if it solved the problem. Generally the laptop is working fine and fit for my purposes. |

QUOTE(ShadowFiendZXC @ Jun 29 2017, 04:12 PM) i actually made payment for i7 + 1050ti combination last week before raya. They just tell me that the i7 (I believe it's the last unit) doesnt pass their stress test and ask if i want to downgrade to i5. im actually quite disappointed regarding this matter. It's the same logic as u order food at a restaurant and they serve u with some other food. i think im just going to cancel the order. I was so eager and enthusiastic to have my hands on the new toy this week already. QUOTE(wgn_white @ Jun 29 2017, 04:22 PM) My screen also cannot be dimmed, they asked me if I want to downgrade from 120Hz to normal 60Hz. For my case, I found 5 dead pixel on my screen within the 1st week of purchase. But to my surprise my problem was solved within the same day I sent in for inspection. They replaced a brand new ips screen,test it and within few hours I collect my Q5 evo. Till now there is no issue with the screen.I said proceed with 120Hz. It's good thing, that they informed you.

Illegear handles me patiently and professionally.. But here is my 2 cents: Instead of ignoring ur customers for a period of time after they ask about something, why not just tell the customers that they will be attended shortly due to whatever reason. Like me myself, I always expect rapid response but I wont know if the issue is brought up to management and they are discussing regarding the issue or I am just being ignored.

QUOTE(wgn_white @ Jul 1 2017, 01:58 PM) Alright, it's okay. If there is one soon, we will personally notify you here/WhatsApp you directly later. Sorry ya for the inconvenience.But, how do I get notified when there's firmware update? So far I just compensate this by turning on lights so it won't be that glowing in the dark. |

Have been using Q5 Evo for few weeks now..
It performs admirably in gaming with i7-7700 HQ + 1050ti.. Speakers..not that good compared to...say..Lenovo Y500... Love the RGB keyboard.. Only gripe is the left side of the laptop..lack of USB port... |
