    I have a question, is all the ASUS G73JH cards equipped with the GDDR5 graphic card? The reason I asked is when I looked the specifications on a swedish homepage of a configurated G73 it said the memory type for the graphic card is ddr3. Is this a misstake or is it true? I was just about to click "order" when I saw that :)

    GDDR5 , BTW GDDR5 memory is based on the ddr3 specification, so that's where the confusion may come from.
