Does the Silver paint chip off? I had an old Asus silver PC, I was wondering if the paint chipped off at all after ownership?

I'm also looking at silver Asus laptops.can anyone clarify whether the silver paint is durable? is it semi-scratch proof? if not, do you see faint gray or black lines through the white paint when you do scratch it?do the 8 edges get super scratched and you're left with gray-spotted or black-lined edges? does the silver paint looked matte when the paint is really worn or does it still look kind of glossy?Thanks !

I've had mine for a little less than a year. The paint is not easily scratched. Still looks new.

No so far I havnt seen it chip honestly..doesnt mean it might not..if it does its a small price to pay for such a professional durable board..you know you can always remove it and paint over it when ever�

Yes, I actually did it myself. The silver bezel looks good, but the black out does also!!

Defective motherboard, as I had a similar issue with an Asus MB. If it is still under warranty, good luck with dealing with their support. I would strongly suggest going with another manufacturer if you decide to replace it, ASUS really doesn't stand behind their products.

Yeah I bought this bad boy 2 years ago exactly to the day, loving it so far! But the graphics card on this is pretty weak, even with games like Minecraft (Vanilla, no mods or texture packs) I'm lucky to get 50 FPS even with fast setting (Low graphics settings in the game options). And one of the fans pooped out the other day lol, but that happens with all PC's after a year or so. Overall great PC, it's not hard to rip the 550TI out and slap in the 770 that M. Martin suggested. Anyhoo my 2 cents! :)

Rafael, I am a total Asus fan but I had to return the first laptop I ordered because the key board wasn't lit up and the keys didn't work properly (particularly the cap key). After researching this further I found that Asus is having some quality control issues on this and similar current models and and that they had numerous people complaining about any number of items. My life update wasn't working, some of the drivers weren't working so I returned mine to Amazon (within the 30 days period) and got a replacement. No issues whatsoever with the replacement laptop. If you cannot return the laptop to Amazon I urge you to get this thing fixed by Asus under the warranty ASAP. Sorry, wish I had better news.

Amazon took good care of me with the Asus. I had the first one just over 90 days and they replaced it. The second one went out within 30 days so I just returned it for a refund.

Since chrome doesn't tarnish... no. Like any chrome surface though, over time the chrome plating will come off eventually. I've had mine for about six months now (I think?) and I'm not easy/gentle on my stuff...it still looks great, though the "PARKER" insignia wore off very, very quickly (cheaply printed on the handle). Doesn't matter though, it is still a great, quality handle with high quality hairs. I've used other silver tip brushes that started "shedding" a month after use... every once and awhile (daily shaver) I'll see a hair come out of this one but it's very rare.

It's very delicate. I haven't had anything break, but I handle it very carefully. As far as I can tell, the metallic paint hasn't shown any signs of wearing out.

it is actually called thermal paste and arctic silver is the best to get and just one good drop in the middle of the cpu on the back side is all you need. it will spread out when you install the cooling fan and heat sync

A guy from overclock.net did it and spray painted it black http://www.overclock.net/t/1316586/logitech-g710-disassembly-and-modification-56k-warning http://www.overclock.net/t/1316586/logitech-g710-disassembly-and-modification-56k-warning However it if I remember correctly it ended up wrecking the keyboard and he had to get it replaced, don't quote me on that. I've had this keyboard for about 3 months now and I have to say it doesn't look as gaudy in real life as it does in the picture to me.

Well, it certainly doesn't come with cracked corners and a dead CPU when I got it. So it is fully operational, however if someone sold you a broken version, you might want to have it returned for a refund. It's not "normal" in case that's what you're asking.
