So today I finally decided that my Asus G72GX needs to be replaced. For months I have dealt with issues that I hypothesize stem from a chronic overheating issue. The overheating basically made the computer unusable for gaming and that is what lead me to build myself a desktop. However I have been using the laptop for all my work and internet purposes while the desktop was for entertainment only. But over the months more and more issues came up and I think the high temps just burnt the thing out. Here is my list of issues:
-Unreliable USB ports
-Monitor flickers, sometimes goes all white
-CD drive doesnt work
-It will completely freeze and lock up while streaming netflix/youtube, with an annoying and distorted sound.
-(and new yesterday and the reason im calling it quits) Network card would not connect to any networks, and now doesn't even show that there are networks.
Luckily I got the accidental 3 year warranty for $1000 at bestbuy and will hopefully get a new one like last time I had a laptop die on me. It probably wont be another gaming laptop since I have this desktop as a work horse, but we shall see what my money can get me
