ASUS today announced its industry-leading Computex 2015 showcase, including new gaming gear from ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG), ROG -series gaming monitors and peripherals, ROG Certified products, and the ASUS Z170 motherboard based on the forthcoming 6th-generation Intel® Core™ processor family. Other exciting ASUS products on show at the Nangang Exhibition Hall’s booth M0410 include the complete ASUS USB 3.1 product family, Strix GTX 980Ti graphics card, 4K/UHD (ultra-high-definition) displays, total networking solutions, the battery-powered P3B projector, and five stunning case mods based on ROG and ASUS TUF modded rigs. ASUS ROG and ASUS Gaming: ROG peripherals, displays, certified rigs, plus Strix graphics card On show are ROG Spatha and ROG Claymore, respectively ROG’s flagship gaming mouse and RGB gaming keyboard. Spatha is equipped with 12 buttons encased in a premium magnesium-alloy chassis and is optimized for MMO (massively-multiplayer online) games. Spatha includes both wired and wireless modes, comes with a stylish charging station and has an exclusive socket design for easy switch upgrades. Gamers can customize their favorite effect across three distinct areas, choosing from a palette of 16.8m colors. ROG Claymore is a new RGB mechanical gaming keyboard with a detachable numeric keypad for user preference and available in four versions — with a choice of red, brown, blue or black Cherry MX RGB switches. Claymore is finished with ROG’s signature Mayan detailing and has backlit keys that are individually customizable from the same 16.8- million-color palette as Spatha. Three ROG gaming displays are on show — ROG Curved, Swift PG27AQ and Swift PG279Q. The 34-inch Curved display has a 3440 x 1440 native resolution, and a shallow-arc panel to envelope gamers in the on-screen action. Swift PG27AQ and Swift PG279Q are both 27-inch displays with in-plane switching (IPS) technology and 144Hz refresh rates. Swift PG27AQ has a native 4K/UHD resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels, while PG279Q is a 2560 x 1440-pixel (WQHD) display. Both offer wide viewing angles for the best gaming experiences. All three gaming monitors have integrated NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ display technology to deliver the smoothest, fastest and most breathtaking gaming imaginable. Two MG series gaming displays are on show — the 27-inch MG279Q and MG278Q. These two monitors both deliver a crisp WQHD resolution with a 144Hz refresh rate. The MG278Q has a near-instant 1ms response time, while MG279Q uses IPS technology to provide 178°-wide viewing angles. The MG series include AMD® FreeSync™ technology for seamless visuals and smooth gameplay. ASUS-exclusive Ultra-Low Blue Light, Flicker-Free, and GameVisual technologies combine to provide comfortable viewing for even the most-extended gaming sessions. ASUS GameVisual Technology provides six preset display modes (Scenery, Racing, Cinema, RTS/RPG, FPS and sRGB) tailored to suit different game types. Strix GTX 980Ti is the latest enthusiast-gaming graphics card, with ASUS-exclusive DirectCU III technology and a triple-wing-blade 0dB fan design to deliver maximum airflow for 30%-cooler and three times (3X) quieter performance. Strix GTX 980Ti includes ASUS Auto-Extreme technology with Super Alloy Power II components for aerospace-grade quality and reliability. The new graphics card also benefits from ASUS-exclusive GPU Tweak II with XSplit Gamecaster for intuitive performance tweaking and instant gameplay streaming. The new ROG Certified program is an assurance that preferred gaming gear is designed to work perfectly with ROG products. ROG Certified products undergo extensive testing and validation by ROG engineers, and only the very best succeed. Several ROG Certified products are on display at the ASUS booth, including memory modules, cooling kits and cases from Avexir, BitFenix®, Bitspower®, Corsair®, G.Skill, HyperX®, In Win, Lian-Li and Thermalright — and more partners are being added all the time. The ROG Certified logo will be clearly displayed on all certified products, which are available to purchase via our partners’ own channels. Next-gen tech: Z170, USB 3.1 and Hyper Kit for full NVMe support, plus total networking solutions The ASUS Computex booth offers an insight into the near future, with an exclusive reveal of the ASUS Z170 motherboard. This work-in-progress design will tease the forthcoming 6th-generation Intel Core platform. Visitors are able also to explore the world’s most complete USB 3.1 product line-up, plus the latest NVM Express™ (NVMe) storage technology via ASUS Hyper Kit. Products on display include ASUS motherboards with integrated USB 3.1 (both Type-A and Type-C, powered by ASMedia’s USB Implementers Forum-certified ASM1142 controller), USB 3.1 Type-A and Type-C expansion cards, USB Power Delivery (UPD) front panel that supplies up to 100W USB charging, and a new USB 3.1 SSD enclosure. To demonstrate the incredible 10Gbit/s data-transfer potential with ASUS exclusive USB 3.1 Boost, the booth will have two premium water-cooled desktop PCs equipped with both USB 3.1 and NVMe storage technology. Home networks are increasingly complex, and ASUS Networking has a comprehensive range of fast, reliable and smart products to address every aspect of this complexity — many of which will be on display at Computex. ASUS routers are easy to use and set up, and incorporate powerful features such as ASUS AiProtection with exclusive Trend Micro™ technology, which protects the entire network and eliminates the need for individual device protection. To optimize the use of bandwidth in multi-device environments, the RT-AC3200 router uses innovative Tri-Band Smart Connect technology to automatically assign devices to the most suitable Wi-Fi band. Large multi-floor homes or offices will benefit from routers such as RT-AC87U, with its ultra-wide coverage of up to 465m2. To further enhance coverage and help eliminate wireless ‘dead zones’, ASUS offers a complete line-up of range extenders that provide overall speeds ranging from 300Mbit/s 802.11n to 1900Mbit/s 802.11ac. In areas where 4G/LTE speeds are faster than conventional ADSL or cable broadband, the ASUS 4G-AC55U modem-router can connect to the internet at speeds of up to 150Mbit/s and share the connection over ultra-fast 802.11ac Wi-Fi. It can also be used as a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot for on-the-go use. Tech in style: Design-conscious displays and battery-powered ultra-short-throw projector The LX34 and the 27-inch 4K Frameless Monitor are two beautiful new displays from ASUS. LX34 is simply a work of art with a stylish curved design with a frameless bezel, and a stand cast in a shape reminiscent of liquid metal. LX34 offers an ultra-wide 3440 x 1440-pixel resolution and in-plane switching (IPS) technology for 178°-wide viewing angles. The 27-inch 4K Frameless Monitor is an iF Award-winning frameless LED display with a barely-there 1mm bezel and a stunning 4K/UHD 3840 x 2160 resolution, plus Advanced High Performance IPS (AH-IPS) technology with 178°-wide viewing angles. It sits atop an eye-catching, sundial-inspired stand. Both new displays feature ASUS SonicMaster audio, incorporating ICEpower®, Bang and Olufsen® technology for premium immersive audio. ASUS P3B Battery-Powered Portable LED projector is a lightweight, and ultra-short-throw projector design that easily fits in a briefcase or bag. P3B features an LED light source with a 30,000-hour lifespan and provides crisp HD 1280 x 800 resolution projections at a maximum brightness of 800 lumens. P3B delivers ultra-short-throw projection, so it’s able to project a huge 58-inch-diagonal image from a distance of just one meter from the projection surface. It also has a Wi-Fi- projection mode for wireless streaming and presentations, and has an integrated 12,000mAh power bank that provides up to three hours of projection and doubles as a power bank for mobile devices Outstanding mods: Custom rigs powered by ROG and TUF motherboards, and ROG graphics The ASUS Computex booth is also home to numerous brilliant creations from some of world’s finest case modders. Representing ROG is Ai Mask’s Hog and Great BW’s Maximus Command. ROG Hog is based on ROG’s incredibly powerful Rampage V Extreme X99 gaming motherboard and Matrix R9 290X graphics card. Ai Mask is a big fan of both ROG and Harley-Davidson® motorcycles, so combined his passions to create ROG Hog — an outstanding PC mod that thinks it’s a motorbike. Great BW’s Maximus Command is inspired by Lego art, putting the powerful Maximus VII Impact Z97 mini-ITX gaming motherboard in command of a system where the fun never stops — wearing its playful nature on its sleeve, with a Lego-styled bright-red ROG logo on the outside. Rockcrawler X99 is focused around the TUF Sabertooth X99 motherboard, with a design that reflects the military toughness of TUF’s Sabertooth motherboards. Modder Alexander Hede’s vision was to have a military vehicle carrying a complete high-performance computer, with matte-black paintwork to lend Rockcrawler X99 a stealthy finish. Ai Mask’s second creation for the ASUS booth is TUF Immortal. Inspired by the strength of TUF motherboards, Ai Mask encased TUF’s arctic-camouflaged Sabertooth Z97 Mark in Tropicana, a classic ruggedized, waterproof photographic-equipment case from Rimowa. Twinned with a Bitspower® water-cooling kit TUF Immortal represents a formidable motherboard with formidable cooling in a formidable case. |

After 5 days I called to see where the part was and they said they would send it that day after three more days I got the part which as I mentioned was no good to me I sent it back and asked for a refund I put a confirmation on the return and found that they received the part back they refused to refund my money I don't have a part and was charged 139.98 to my credit card. I made a claim with my credit card company and am still battling with these people to get a refund this is 4 months after I needed the part which I did get elsewhere.

my laptop needs a new LCD Invertor -- my display goes dead after 2 minutes but works fine with an extermal monitor. I ordered a replacement after a live chat that they said based on the above problem it was my LCD invertor that was bad. I received it installed it and sill had the same problem -- dead display after 2 minutes. I got back to chat and got authorized to get a cross shipped replacement. I mail the 1st one back. The 2nd one arrived and my display still dies after 2 minutes. I got back to chat (live help link) and all they said they were not responsible for a mis diagnosed problem. but offered to send a 3rd one when i asked about a refund. They said it was possible to have sent 1 bad invertor but not 2. neither one worked as my display still goes dead after 2 minutes. their policy does say "If we cannot provide a working part in a timely fashion they will give a complete refund including shipping." both invertors they sent do not work as they go dead after 2 minutes. if i ship the part back they will only send another one out. but i wind up paying shipping -- so eventually the shipping will end up costing me more than the part. --I mentioned that I paid with a Credit Card and could dispute it there. their responce was "go ahead" -- but i am right now stuck with a their non-working LCD invertor. I want a refund but if i ship the part back at my expense they will just keep sending me more invertors.

InverterCentral.com Scammed me out of $120 Bangor Michigan
Body:
I purchased an inverter for my Alienware Laptop a couple months back for $110 + an additional $10 extra for faster shipping [from http://www.invertercentral.com]. I received the inverter but when I took it to the shop that was working on my laptop they had told me it was broken. I quicly sent it back to InverterCentral. I called a few days later and they told me that they received it and they would process my exchange. I called back a week later but they didn't pick up. I found that unusual considering they always picked up. I continued calling daily (up to 5 times a day) to find out information on my situation but they continued to ignore me. I e-mailed them and used Live Support daily to try and communicate with their employees hoping that it was a miss-communication issue of some bizarre sort. Whenever I had used "Live Support" I would be helped until I told them my situation and that is where they would ignore me. I got very upset as I don't have a lot of money.. I just wanted a refund and nothing more
but to get out of this mess. They REFUSE to help and I would recommend NO ONE USE WWW.INVERTERCENTRAL.COM FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY! Looking forward to getting a response from the company and I will continue calling until I get back whats mine. It has been about 4 months and this is absolutely RIDICULOUS.

Title: InverterCentral.com - InverterCentral are misleading and false advertising
Comment 1: - Mar 20th, 2008
InverterCentral.com falsely advertises the following when your laptop screen stops working: Replacing the backlight inverter fixes the following symptoms 17 out of 20 Times: Dim Screen,Flickering Display, Wavy Lines,Blinking LCD Panel, Panel Buzzing,Shades of Pink, The problem I experienced where some of the above,but when I put in the new part it didn't fix my problem. If you look at the fine print buried on their website which they've cleverly hinden this is return policy: THERE IS NO REFUND FOR "deciding the part is no longer needed for any reason" Which means if it doesn't work, which is my case, you are screwed. My advice, buy a new monitor and if it includes the inverter, so much the better. In my case, the replacement screen with inverter included fixed my problem.
Comment 2 - 2008-05-20
I also want to alert all with this company InverterCentral.com. I am from Brazil, I made the search for the site with the model and I bought a to invert, they ordered me the wrong device and now they disconnect me of the attendance on line whenever I try to argue. That company type has to be banished of the virtual world.
Comment 3 - 2008-07-08
I ordered a panel during the month 02/2008. 10 days later, When I received it, it had 2 big scratches on, so I directly did a RMA on the InverterCentral WEB site and returned the broken panel by 'Coliposte' (Like 'USPS' in FRANCE). 1 week later I verified directly with the hotline that they have well received the panel that I returned to them and also that they were OK to replace it by sending me a new one. But the second panel never came. After having wait for 3 months during I contacted the hotline to many times (and heard to many lies), I decided to cancel the order and ask to be refunded (188 euros) because they can't provide me the panel I bought. Now, I have spent more than 1 month asking them to be refund, contacting them nearly all the days, lots of times by a day ! It's a real fight ! They know me and my problem of being refunded. I try to have an answer of 'Lisa', the supervisor who treat my problem, but she seemed to be in meeting all the time and when she isn't in meeting, answering me is not her priority. I just want to be refunded, I wait for more than 4 months, It's very difficult and even more for people like me who live on the other side of the Atlantic. I feel so tired and stressed by this story.
Comment 4 - 2008-08-21
They have also refused to help me or even talk to me. I am out $120 to them and this is absolutely ridiculous. They sent me a broken inverter and refused to refund when they had the inverter in THEIR POSSESSION.
Comment 5 - 2010-12-22
I ordered an inverter from this company on 12/17. The web site stated that the part was in stock and would ship th enext day. Now, 5 days later, the order status says they are waiting to receive the part from some other location, with the estimated ship date of 12/27. So, with my laptop dead for 10 days I apparently have to wait for them to ship the part via a slow llama from half way around the world. I guess "in stock" means that it's in stock somewhere, just not necessarily with them. Save yourself the trouble and order from another company.
Comment 6 - 2014-06-13
YOU SHOULD SIMPLY WALK AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY, NO SIGN OF hq LOCATION, ETC ETC, NEVER REPLY TO QUESTION, TANKS HIGHLY FOR ABOVE REMARKS, IT HELPED ME TO TO FALL IN THE TRAP. tHERE ARE OTHER MORE SECURE COMPANIES ON THE WEB, EVEN IF MORE EXPENSIVE.
Comment 7 - 2015-01-06
Email the company about an invertor got a reply ordered the invertor took longer for it to ship than they said. Got the invertor and its the wrong one the email address that they emailed me from is no longer any good. No reply's to emails from there web site or phone calls. Disputed with PayPal with no reply from vendor made a claim and they offer an 18.00 credit for something I didn't order. PayPal said to mail it back and then refused my claim so they got the part back and my money. DON"T buy from this company
