    In the early of this month, the NV announce that one of their GPU chipset has some material problem and could lead to over heat problem and display issue. Does any guys know the detail. Pls kindly to share. Thanks.

    But the Go72 sieres seems worse than the NB8 or NB9 series. The later may be need too much time for market test.

    Thanks K-TRON, but others reported that the NB8 and NB9 has the similiar issue. Moreover, the NB8 and NB9 was on sale less than a half year. This momoent, I didn't heard any bad news about them. Instead, The Go 72 series made us in a hard enviroment.
