Hi Guys,

I have an Asus W90VP-A1 laptop for sale.

It is actually quite an attractive laptop (with leather and brushed aluminimum highlights) and it is practically brand new!, it has only been used a handfull of times. I bought it to replace my ageing 17" HP notebook which i use for work, but unfortunately the ASus is too big to carry around, and i don't really need another PC at home.

The Laptop is fully spec'd out. and is amazingly quick! perfect for a gaming rig! It is comparable to the Alienware 17x only stylish :)

Specifications:

Intel Core 2 Quad core Q9000 (2Ghz, 6MB L2 Cache)

Intel X38 based desktop chipset

6GB DDR2-800 SDRAM

2x320GB 7200RPM SATA HDD's (you can chose to stripe or mirror the disks)

Blu-Ray Reader / DVD DL writer Combo Drive

18.4" WUXGA (1920x1080) Color-Shine Glossy screen

ATI Mobility Radeon HD8740 x2 Dual Graphics 512MB GDDR3 VRAM per card (yes, 2x video cards with crossfire!)

HDMI output, full 1080p support as well as RGB output

Built in 5.1 channel Altec Lansing speakers (including sub)

S/PDIF output port, microphone and headphone ports

firewire, e-sata, 4x USB 2.0 ports

Full Size 88 key keyboard with MS keys and multi-media keys

trackpad

webcam and microphone

56K modem, Bluetooth, 1Gbps Network, integrated 802.11 a/g/n Wi-Fi

Expresscard slot

8 in 1 memory card reader

12 cell battery

Windows Vista Home premium 64bit (drivers for Windows 7 available)

It comes with an extended global warranty until the 22/5/2012

Dimensions: 17.7" x 13.2" x 2.5" (W x D x H)

Weight: 11.5lbs with 12-cell battery (8800mAh)

Comes with included Asus backpack, and gaming mouse, all documentation, warranty card, recovery CD's, reciepts, original box (everything it came with) etc.

The included backpack has a small scratch on the front of it (just from moving the thing around in the cupboard), but everything else is as new!

Some reviews:

Will put up some pictures if requested, but it looks exactly like the one in the reviews/website above

Looking for $2000, pickup from Sydney or i can arrange a courier at buyers expense.

to compare, there is currently a dual core version of this notebook on ebay in the states for $2350, so this is a bargain!

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
