    Found this a bit odd, There is 5 new files in the G51J download section on the asus site.
    EMI and Safety

    BSMI Certification
    CB Certification
    CCC Certification
    CE Delclaration of Conformity
    FCC Delclaration of Conformity

    Anyone know why these were added? It was obviously over the past 24hrs at MOST as I usually check daily for updates right now.

    first time i've seen anything like those... and it looks like whoever scanned those should be considering a new scanner.
    reading through the english ones doesn't mean much besides some certification.

    It may just be a requirement for Asus to make these certifications available to the public, just like the tags you see on pillows/cushions where is says "do no remove unless by consumer". The same FCC and CE declaration of conformity documents are also found on the back of all the Asus motherboard manuals.

    They're zipped PDFs for exactly what they say. Why are you concerned?

    not concerned, just found it odd that they put them in there and its the first time I can recall them placing those products with the available downloads for the product.

    Over the recent months, we have been actively promoting our products. We have slowly added compliance certifications available for download on our products not only for efficiency but also encourage other users who rely on such information for on their purchasing decision.
