New notebook but.....

Vcys86 — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 22:28:20 +0800

Hello everyone...
Recently bought a notebook online via GemFive, Acer F5-573G-57VD

Product Details
Intel Core i5 6200U 2.3GHz up to 2.8Ghz
4GB DDR4 Ram
128GB SSD 1TB HDD
Nvidia Geforce 940MX 4GB GDDR5
15.6" FHD(1920x1080) LED Screen

However, I noticed that it seems very laggy, which I believe shouldn't be...
Simple action such like going circle with cursor at desktop will feel like not smooth and lagging..
This is without running anything at background..

Sometimes when I launch Chrome (without any open page), it will lag there become Not responding..

So I tried to run HDDScan SMART on both SSD and HDD, then got this "soft ecc correction rate" come out with red for SSD drive...

Is it spoilt?

On task manager, sometimes I saw that either McAfee Scanner service or Windows host process (Rundll32) or Avira Antivirus Host Framework Service has taken up resources in Memory, Disk (50% sometimes).
Should I uninstall McAfee or Avira?

Need advice on LED TV

Vcys86 — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 15:10:05 +0800

hi all,

currently i'm looking for LED TV 50" or above. Would like to know the best buck for the bang model. (sorry newbie here)

1080 is a must, 3D is not required, however, for all the model that i saw in electronic shops, i notice that for >50" model, all is 3d included?

Also, I am looking to include a good sound system pairing with the TV too. Any model in this part please?

Budget if possible < 10k. Is it sufficient?

Would kindly accept any suggestion from sifus here. THanks!

Rim + tyre change

Vcys86 — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 16:28:01 +0800

Hi,

Would like to get some advice from sifus here.

My car (Gen-2 CPS), one of the its rim has been damaged (uneven cover on the tyre), which cause its tyre pressure keep on dropping overtime.
about 2kpi/day.

Since it is stock rim and stock tyre (almost 4yrs usage, almost 5 yrs from production date, it does consider old right?), I am thinking to change all 4 rims and the tyres as well. Should i?

Can i change to the original rim size +1 inch ? and the tyres +1inch as well? Is it stock come with 15"? any setback if i do this way?

Any suggestion/input on my above issue would be greatly appreciated. (rim,tyres,shop recommendation,etc.) Thanks.

Recommendation To Buy A House [ Petaling Jaya ]

Vcys86 — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 08:33:58 +0800

Requirement must be a landed property.

Which type of homes should I go for? New projects or 2nd hand homes? Budget - wise, around RM 500k or so. Possible to get a double storey terrace?

preferable around seksyen 17 of Petaling Jaya, because i think that area most probably easier for renting out to students right?
