*sigh* guess what? i just got a call from AxionTech saying that the Z63A i brought does not come w/ a DVD writer. :( apparently the link or description or whatever is directly from the manufacturer, so they can not take DVD-RW out of the description. kinda sucks, but at least they called and let me ...

$118 wouldnt be bad (compared to the ~$127 other places r charging to ADD it to their overpriced systems), but i was hoping to spend ~$85 (NEC ND-6650).

Best Place To Get Asus Z63A w/ DVD-RW

looking for the cheapest place to get a Z63A w/ a DVD burner. i was going to get a NEC ND-6650 seperately, but i heard some people having trouble getting it to fit/match perfectly, so i'm looking for a barebones Z63A that has the Asus model included. or an Asus Dual Layer drive seperately. thanx

ok i'll start shopping around for a 735 now. what about heat? being a laptop and the CPU having limited space should i worry about overclocking the CPU? will some Artic Silver 5 do the trick? and do i have to do the wire thing to undervolt the CPU or is that to get more out of your battery life?

Z63A: P M 735 Overclocked or P M 740?

ive been browsing the boards for a few weeks now and ive been a little hesitant to get a Z63A until now. i was planning on getting a 740, but a couple posts about overclocking the 735 have stopped me. the 735 has less cache, but is cheaper and will run @ 2.2GHz. am i making a mistake for getting the...
