Ah bugs, no wonder the prices vary so much

Oh... its a bug. Bummer. I was hoping to get the NP5125 at 2.4k but now the dream is dead.

I'm placing my order today, still deliberating about the CPU. Is i5 more than enough for my needs ? Or should I go opt for the '' future-proof '' i7 ?

I don't do video editing, mainly games and movies.

i'm using only T8700 now and i got no complain, if compare with my friend's dv6 with core i7, i dont feel any improvement in-games and movies, but core i7 consume much more battery than dual core or i5.

is the bug in the mucro still not fixed? i try to order and the price is so cheap... dunno i shuld pay or not.

it's a bug, I suggest not paying now.They canceled my order the other day when this happened.

em, im going to wait for few days, mucro said the bug is fixed, maybe it happen again, maybe someone hack their site. huhu.

What bug? So far I'm not seeing anything and the prices seems to be correct. @_@

Well they do have this bug with their currency converter from time to time lol. Maybe they fixed it quickly that time.

p.s. I finally placed my order n made the payment today =), hope to join the owners list soon.

Oh ya, have you guys heard about the new gtx460 in np8690?
Anyone has any news about it?

Ahh I see, how long it took yours to arrive at your doorsteps ya ?

Yeap, Mucro is selling them and the starting price is RM5895 lol. VERY impressive specs I must say.

It took 12 days.. Hope you canget through playing the waiting game. haha
Looks like the hd5870 is no longer available for np8690 in the mucro asia website.

12 days huh ? I hope I can get it soon because I'm leaving to the UK at the end of this month haha.

Actually they do, the old model is still there.

Hello,

so i've been browsing the mucro asia site, I'm planning to buy a NP8690.

I'm at the payment option.

How exactly does Ringgit Bank Transfer works?
From the previous post i get the idea that Mucro Asia has a maybank account; and since i don't use maybank (RHB). is it possible to transfer between Maybank and RHB?

please advise, thanks

they will provide u with maybank account number. ppl usually use maybank2u transfer, but i suppose RHB also got interbank transfer,if got shuld be no problem. try to look for it. maybe try google somemore. just my 2 cents.

Actually you dont need a maybank account to pay through ringgit bank transfer, you just need to go to the bank and ask for a bank in slip. Fill in the details and write the exact amount. Take a number and wait till your turn and just give the exact amount to the bank attendant. It's that simple and doesn't involve a maybank account.

hey wolf, did your Order Status in Mucro's homepage changed at anytime during the 12 days waiting period ? It's been 11 days but mine is only still " Confirmed and Paid ".

Nope, it still remained the same. At first, it caused quite some panic for me.. U can imagine paying rm4-5k then that happened..
Just mail mucro or if possible directly call them to get confirmation that you have paid. I hope that helps.
