I am talking about Joybook S73G that come with Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 and ATI Radeon Mobility X1600. Its a powerful combination but a pair of heat pipes that joined them NOT COOL at all.
Why did they design the cooler with its processor and GPU sharing the same heat sink/cooler. Either one or both components will be shortlived. 2 years old, enough?
Now, it looks like the GPU (Ati Radeon Mobility X1600) damaged and the screen has artifacts or random white grain shown on the screen at idle. As long as you load a 3D program, the driver will be restarted. Sometimes it will be just a pause or a blink. Worth case = Application CRASH and reboot. Look honey, snow on the window!
Nichlateoh still on vacation at Sipadan Island. When he's back on 11 July then I'll be able to get the 3M thermal conductive pad from him to reduce the heat.
Too late cause its already damaged. At least to hold it for a few months?
I wish to grab a laptop that suits my need. At least 2Ghz dual core processor with VT, good GPU and hi-res monitor for my multimedia jobs. The rest can be upgraded.
Really need a good laptop. My desktop is a nuclear power reactor. Its super powerful and HOT and power hungry. At full load, may reach 700+Watts. Normal usage floats around 300-400Watts. Not good for electric bill.
MSI, Asus or Dell. Hmm it won't be cheap but need to hold on. Wait after the big Day.
Hmm tough year eh.
Already 2AM lets get some zzz
*Ouch* the small bump on my forehead still there. OK ... just keep rubbing it ...
