for me, end-user need to be rational in choosing spec, with so high-end spec but was under-utilize is consider a waste, buy what suit to your need

Which bios upgrade made u feel a difference?  hmm.gif

I think any bios upgrade is not noticeable at all. The changes are too abstract for us no notice it.  icon_idea.gif

The only difference I see, is the version no. on the post bios page.  laugh.gif

since yours is cd, i suppose there is no impact. actually there is no gimmick here, the newer bios just do some adjustments on temp. threshold to trigger blower

ever since  they changed my mobo and rams.. i started to feel worry looo  sweat.gif
its not about how fast they would react to rectify the probs.. but the hassle i hav to go thru... ie. troubleshoot--> wait for them--> format my lappy and so on..

agree, after sales service is important, QC is equally vital too. yet to encounter any prob thus far, wish me luck sweat.gif
