From my past experiences buying laptops with middle of the road graphics cards, I highly encourage you to get the 3k machine if you can afford it! My previous laptop kept overheating and restarting after a while of gaming because it just couldn't keep up. Granted the 765 is probably miles better than what I have, an ancient 555m, but the last time I bought a laptop I told myself I don't need such a good card, I won't play much games. True for a while, but then when I wanted to play more graphically intensive games, I wasn't satisfied with what I got, and constantly thought of upgrading. Its always nice to have a choice! So I went with an Aftershock X17S, to ensure me problem free gaming on high settings for a decent amount of time.

Wah so good, still have a 555m graphics card... Mine was some run of the mill 105m cars. Haish :(

Hi Aftershock,

I just collect my xg17 on Tuesday. How do I see what fps is my games running at? If put to Ultra settings, how high the fps will be considered good?

Hey rog1979, you can use an app called fraps to view FPS in-game.

"Good" Fps depends from game to game. The 765m gtx handles most games well at 1080p High, some at ultra.

We've already requested for more stock of the SS mouse. Will keep you guys posted.

As for decals, car paint, wraps and custom art we'll announce over the next 2 weeks as we're redesigning our website to support it.

Could someone tell me, if the 765m, is able to play this video fluidly ?




Im sure 770s and 780 definitely can open at least 8 tabs with all playing this video whilst doing some hd-prawn =:p:o

Suggestion is to come to the showroom, and test it out for yourself. Feel free to bring your videos, apps etc, to try the performance on the machine, especially if you have some thing specific in mind.

I believe even the built in Intel graphics on the processor can play 4K videos perfectly.

From Farrer Park (pretty much City square mall.) or Boon Keng it is 5-10 mins walk. There is quite a bit of parking space outside the shop today though. If your keen on seeing performance, I'd suggest going to our funan branch though.

Strongly suggest going to the funan shop to see/test the systems though. We're busy building systems at the serangoon service center.

Oh I see. Cause last time I go down funan don't have any system running 780m. Want to test performance of x15s.

We've moved two demo sets with 780m GTXs to the funan showroom :)

Hey tkte_85,

Those wear levels are nothing to be concerned about (Batteries will definitely have wear over time.) If you want a spare battery, do let us know. I've pmed you the pricing.
