Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.

The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605CX-QR106W is a high-performance laptop designed for demanding gaming, content creation and professional multitasking. It features a 16" WQXGA OLED display with a 240Hz refresh rate, an Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor, 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD. The integrated GeForce RTX 5090 GPU delivers advanced graphics performance for ray tracing, AI-accelerated workflows and high-frame-rate gaming. Windows 11 Home is preinstalled to provide a modern, secure and responsive user environment.

Advantages

The combination of a 240Hz WQXGA OLED panel and a high-end GPU enables fluid visuals with accurate color and deep contrast for both gameplay and creative work. The Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor with high core counts supports heavy multitasking and content rendering, while 32GB of RAM and a fast 2TB SSD reduce load times and allow large projects to be stored locally. The laptop balances performance and portability with a compact 16" chassis that still provides advanced thermal management for sustained performance.

Suitable for

  • Competitive and AAA gaming at high frame rates and high settings
  • Video editing, 3D rendering and GPU-accelerated creative workflows
  • Software development, virtual machines and intensive multitasking
  • Remote work and professional presentations requiring color-accurate display

Key specifications

  • Display: 16" WQXGA (2560 x 1600) OLED, 240Hz refresh rate
  • Processor: Intel Core Ultra 9 285H
  • Memory: 32GB RAM
  • Storage: 2TB NVMe SSD
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090
  • Operating system: Windows 11 Home
  • Connectivity: Wi‑Fi 6E and Bluetooth (specifications depend on configuration)

How to use

Power on the laptop and complete the Windows 11 Home initial setup by following on-screen prompts. Install drivers and system updates from the official ASUS support site to ensure optimal performance and thermal control. For gaming or creative applications, install the latest GPU drivers from NVIDIA and configure application-specific settings to balance visual quality and frame rate. Use the preinstalled system tools to monitor temperatures and adjust performance modes as needed for sustained workloads.

Recommendations

For best results, place the laptop on a hard, flat surface to ensure proper ventilation and use the built-in performance profiles when running demanding applications. Regularly update drivers and firmware, keep backups of important data on external storage or cloud services, and consider adjusting display color settings when color-critical work is required.
