Asus C90S Review & Live Video

no, no problems at all.

 

good is eagerly waits his confirmation call from you guys.

 

THANK YOU GOD.

 

I seriously doubt it. Using another barebone now. Issues are present there as well. This really sucks. My apologies in advance to the many customers that will have their orders delayed even longer. if you have an order in now make sure your order is held until the screws and battery problem is addressed,

 

that is very odd ken. 2 systems same problem outside of windows. present even in pre post

 

The base resolution of 3Dmark06 is 1280X1024. With my G1S, after doing a recovery with the Asus DVD and removing all the Asus provided garbage and a defragment, i got a score of 3810 @ 1280X1024 on 3Dmark06. (Stock Clocks)

A reason for ur question why the C90s scoring higher when resolution is changed is that CPU plays a much larger role in the 3d benchmark scores/fps when the resolution is downlplayed. Hence the reason they do test for CPUs at resolutions like 640X480 to take the load of the test off the GPU such that it is not bottlenecked..

The C90s would definately score much higher in PCmark06 especially when its coupled with a desktop CPU and a 7200rpm HDD..

 

I dotn mind waiting for mine (plus i just ordered yesterday (from Ken's place) so i guess is going to take a while before it gets shipped)

plus its better to wait a while longer and get a entirely working machine that getting one and have reshipped to get it fixed...

 

yeah but right now im using a power book g4 that has broken keys, a dying dvd drive, and a dying fan.

 

Right that is a good reason lol

 

Don't Get me Wrong, i love the powerbook. but it can't DO anything.

 

Retesting now with vista home premium. Perhaps the problem is with ultimate

 

That shouldnt make a major difference in the scores considering the fact it is give or take a few more/less services running in the background and given the same drivers.

 

alias read up a bit his C90S had a major malfuntion with them haulting and bsod

 

reinstalling windows halted when removing ac adaptor leaving just the battery. changing all components, memory, hard drive, cpu

 

yeah, missed that point!! Thanks for pointing that out.

Still i would like to repeat my last post. Given the fact that its basically the same kernel, things may not be different especially considering the fact that Vista 32bit as requirement for any application comprises both of Premium, Business & Ultimate.

 

I swear im bitting my fingers now since al my fingernails are gone

 

That's a bad habit to pick up.

 

DAMN. UPS trucks keep driving by my house. Im going to go crazy.

 

OT, i can already imagine the headlines tommorrow!!

Guy stops UPS trucks outside his home and holds driver hostage demanding delivery of his laptop!!

 

I just fell over laughing.

 

lol I feel ya halfhalo Im not even getting mine in at least 3 weeks and Im already feeling anxious

 

i would never do that. i think. well, maby i would

 

i would chase em down in my car but some pool guy parked in font of it.

 

hahahaha that its hilarious

 

Narrowed it down to fujitsu 7200rpm drives. Retesting with another fuji 7200rpm drive. seagate works just fine. i am not reinstalling windows just to see if home works better. it just happens to halt during the setup of windows if the power is yanked. Works good with seagate thus far. should have final results in a few minutes

 

I can see it now him telling driver you find my damn laptop in that truck if you don't have it start radioing other trucks......

 

Hostage situation update!

Asus called in as negotiator to end the hostage situation!

Ok, i guess tats enuf! im crapping this thread goin really OT!

 

thank god for dedicated sellers

 

*nods in agreement* yup yup

 

Thats really good news!! Great find there!!! I guess a lot of guys would be breathing easy now..

 

Whats funny is that there all different trucks driving by. And i live in a quite residental area

 

I ordered mine with a seagate I am sooooooooo happy

 

Whew! I was really starting to question this decision...

 

they run one "area" at a time in no real order except level of shipping you paid for.

 

well never mind further testing revealed the ram may have been at fault or in particular the way it was inserted. i have no idea i am so tired. everything works good now after replacing the ram even the original fuji. if i find anythig else i will post. sorry for the false alarm. oooopsy

 

why do you scare me like that? its mean.

 

its funny!

 

you nearly gave me a heart attack.... not funny

 

Not for me! I am going crazy watching all these delivery trucks drive by my house, and you scary me with this. i could have a heart attack!
Damn. you took my heart attack joke

 

Im crying right now (tears of happiness)

 

the video card just fried! a mild puff of smoke has lead me to this conclusion. no big deal we got spares

 

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Wtf!!!

 

O.O looks at eddie with a very evil look unable to decide whats going on here

 

Hes trying to kill me!

 

gets his notepad out jotting down the words "eddie scares me." over and over

 

no that last one was a joke
however we have found the problem to be the 2+1 kingston ram
retrying with other brand
1+1 works fine

 

ohhhh the humanity.....

 

better be a joke...

 

Is the video still uploading? =P

 

anyone test on battery with 3gb in this puppy? ken? do you have 3gb in it?
