| | Hi all,
I'm hoping someone in here has got an ASUS G70 17" Extreme Gaming Laptop (the one with the SLI GeForce graphics chipsets which ships with Vista Ultimate as standard).
I am looking for a bipartisan opinion on it.... because I'm fed up with trying to gauge its worth based on the "opinions" of groups that are either paid to say its great, or trying to suck up to ASUS to keep the unit they were loaned to review.
Anyone with a G70, I value your opinion smile.gif
--------------------
System Spec:
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-MA690FX-DQ6 (AM2+ DDR2 1066)
CPU: AMD Phenom 9850 Quad Core (10GHz total)
RAM: 16GB DDR2 1066 Corsair Dominator
HDD: 6x 150GB Western Digital RAPTOR drives RAID0
Optical: 1x BlueRay, 1x SATA DVD-RW
GFX: 4x ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 cards on Crossfire
thanks |

Wrong forum ! You posted your topic in the tutorial section. In the tutorial section you are supposed to teach things, not to answer questions. So, I moved your topic here, where is most probably it's place. By the way, here we try to have a decent and respective posting site. So, please avoid more words like "trying to s...", else the mods will simply destroy your posts. Regards Yordan

Support: Laptop Wont Turn On
(14) Hi All, I have a Acer Aspire 3003WLC for about a year now. Not a bad, simple laptop, but i have been
having power problems recently. I have had to have the laptop repaired once already because the
sound had stopped working and since I have got it back there has been problems with the power. When

Reddening Of Laptop Lcd Screen
(6) Hey all! I have a Samsung NV5000 laptop, and it's been in operation for around 7 years
(you've read it correctly, if u dun believe ur eyes, read it again.) However, something strange
happens to my LCD screen whenever the screen sleeps and then wakes up. Suddenly it just reddens up
:s, then a few seconds later, it turns back to normal colours. However, when compared to other
laptops (a little newer ones), it's fairly dimmer (even on brightest setting). Does anyone
know what's causing this? and is this a bad thing? (and no, I didn't photoshop my....

dark background...I can still see as I'm typing this. It's just going into a darker contrast

doesn't, I close the lid and open it back up again. Again, sometimes this works, oth....

Help, My Laptop Charger Is Not Working Properly
(17) I have a HP Pavilion laptop. I bought it about 2-3 years ago. I try to plug in the charger end to
my laptop and it does not start charging. I can take the back off of it, plug the charger in, and
it works fine. I think that something is pushing back (in the laptop) and causing the connections
not to touch. I would fix it myself, but I would have to take a lot of my laptop apart just to fix
it. I do not feel comfortable doing that myself. My questions are: What is your suggestion to
fix this? Has anyone else experienced this problem? If I took it to someone, ho....
Laptop Woes
Constantly crashing... why? (6) This is more out of curiosity, since i've already sent my laptop in to the store for repair, but
they're not that adept at pinpointing the exact causes of problems sometimes, and so i'd
like to get other people's input on what it could be. Basically it's a laptop that i've
used heavily for around 3 years, the presario 2500 series, which I've found has a reputation for
overheating. --yes, i've definintely found that to be true. I upgraded the memory to 1 GB
(2x512) a couple years ago, and it seemed to be working ok all that time. Now: it ra....
Laptop Overheating
Problem with Dell 600m (15) One of my friends has a Dell 600m which he bought around the same time as me. We pretty much have
the exact same specs, but my processor and video memory is a little better. He has been having
problems since the time he got the laptop with it overheating to the point of it locking down.
I'll agree that the Dell 600m's from the Summer of 2003 will get way too hot for normal
laptop use. My laptop has only locked up once or twice for me because of it overheating, but his
computer will lock up every time he doesn't have it on a cooling pad. And even then the....

Laptop Battery Bay Damaged?
(15) I had my laptop for over a year and suddenly one day it won't hold the charge in the battery
anymore. So I thought it was a bad battery...sent it in to be repaired and the techs said it's
not the battery. Tested ok. They said it was the charging port. Warranty was over already so I dealt
with the issue...about 3 years now. I want to know how to repair this. Do I have to change the whole
motherboard to replace that battery compartment area? Or is there an easier way to do this? The
laptop is a Prostar 6194. Thanks.....

Laptop Hard Drive Questions...
(11) Today I opened up the laptop and took out the hard drive. There seems to be something loose in
there. Could it be the arm that reads the data on the hard drive's platters? I didn't

programs out there that I can use? This makes me ask another question. Are all laptop hard drives
the same? I'm planning on getting another one for this laptop if I can. This laptop has a 2.0

Is The Processor Everything / Good For Gaming ?
Is it the best thing for gaming? (14) Hi, i've got a dell dimension 3000 computer. I wanted to upgrade the motherboard so it could fit
a PCI-e graphics card. Unfortunatly, i found that the dimension 3000 doesn't take well to be
fitted with another motherboard. Im running with a Geforce FX 5200 128MB graphics card, and wonder
if i shouldn't just upgrade the CPU from a celeron D 2.53 Ghz to a Pentium 4 3.2Ghz HT. Is the
Geforce FX not good enough for gaming, or will it be ok and i can then just upgrade my cpu?

$100 Laptop Being Developed By MIT
Yup! Only 3 zeros in the price tag ! (6) Well, here's the good news - MIT Media Labs are currently developing a $100 laptop. The bad
news is that they're only available to deserving children under the auspices of certain NGOs and
charitable organisations. The current plan is to offer a 500 Mhz processor with a 1 GB
Flash drive for storage. It will run a Linux-based OS designed to function minimally. The three
amazing things that I found about this were: 1. Integrated Wi-Fi access 2. A colour LCD display
which switches to Black & White mode when used outdoors to conserve energy ( That&....
Question: Buggy Old Laptop

over and when I started it I got a blue screen of death along with a stop error. Since then I have

functioning hard drive from a friend and with both I keep getting a o/s not found error. I'm
not sure if I am dealing with bad sectors here or what. When it starts to act up I can hear a

Laptop Slowing Down?
Here's one method that can work (14) I noticed this earlier last year. My laptop was slowing down and it was getting really hot. It was
so bad that it overheated and stopped working for periods of time. Well maybe it might happen to you
laptop users. Take a look on your CPU fan vent on your laptop (underneath). Spot lots of dust? Get
an air can and dust it out! All sides of the vent. Dust will cause heat to build more rapidly in the
CPU in laptops. Since the CPU is mobile and since its getting hot fast it will work with the
powersave in mind, lowering even more performance. After I got my laptop cleaned, it....
