The mouse is wired. You don't want a wireless gaming mouse. And the CPU is 64bit but unless you have 4GB+ of RAM you dont want a 64bit OS.

I am planing on buying the ASUS G1S-A1 from Newegg.com( i want the manufacture warrenty, i could always replace the ram by myself at a later date)

Anyway, i was wondering a couple of things.

Is the mouse any good that comes with the G1S?

How's the bag and the case?

Could anyone recomend me a cooler that isn't too expensive and would fit the G1S and it's bag?

My friend has this rubber-like cover over his keys on his Macbook, is it really that helpful? or is that overkill( do they even have one, or somehting similar for the G1S)?

If anyone could reccomend a good set of speakers, they don't have to be super portable, but if i want to take them somewhere they wouldn't kill me.
A subwoofer would be ideal.

Thanks for all your help!

Just got my G1s and going through cleaning up bloatware, start programs, etc. Checked the Window Experience Index and the processor is at 4.4 (graphics card at 5.9, etc.). Was wondering if anyone had this rating and why it seems low (or maybe it's normal). Thanks

4.4 is way too low for a T7500 processor. Check your power management settings to ensure you have your CPU set to run at 100% and that the system thinks it is on AC, not battery power.

My Sony BX640 with a T7200 gets 4.9 for the CPU. Of course it also gets 3.8 and 4.5 for the GPU (ATI x1600) which is why I'm contemplating switching to a G1S.

I have installed a 7,200 RPM 100G disk in my system and Vista gives it a 5.1 rating, so I guess that does help.

The review on the G1s showed the processor at 5.1...Graphics 5.9

So your graphics are right on target. The processor speed is low though. If you compare it to the review.

I checked and am currently in High Performance mode on Power4Gear with processor set for maximum performance at 100%. This is really baffling now. Should I call Asus or ExcaliberPC?
