is it true that the intel based K40in/50in r using Seagate 8mb cache sata hdd whereas the amd based k40ab/50ab r using Hitachi hdd? can any owners verify it?
Added on August 15, 2009, 8:16 pm QUOTE(locoroco2 @ Aug 15 2009, 03:47 PM) all sifus, i need a simple notebook to convert RMVB to DIVX, was considering K40IN C2D T6500 Geforce G102M dedi 512MB Vram versus K40AB Athlon ATI HD4570, n wondering which one will give me a faster conversion speed?? I think the K40IN is noticeably faster in video conversion tasks - assuming both K40in & K40ab r using similar amount n spec of ram in a controlled environment i.e. vista 32bit without multitasking. Quote from someone somewhere lol below: QUOTE The GPU does video rendering -- the CPU does video encoding/decoding. In plain english, rendering means "displaying" or creating an image using a program (such as CAD, 3dsMax, or computer game. Photoshop is an exception because it's made to depend on CPU instead of the GPU -- this is however now changing now that Nvidia has CUDA enabled GPU's that help out in Photoshop) Encoding is the process of transforming information from one format into another. The opposite operation is called decoding. If you want to speed up your video encoding/decoding, you can either overclock your CPU or buy a better one with more cores (tri-core or quad core). If you want to improve the speed at which 3d graphics are rendered (gaming, CAD, etc.) than you upgrade your video card. the Nvidia GTX series are particularly good for these. QUOTE A GPU will not help you convert faster. As mentioned, the GPU transcoding tools suck for the most part, and a strong GPU won't help in a CPU only task. If this activity is taking to long, you need a better CPU and/or more ram. I hope my assumption is right here, any sifus can enlighten me further on the points?This post has been edited by locoroco2: Aug 15 2009, 08:16 PM |

Quote from someone somewhere lol below: I hope my assumption is right here, any sifus can enlighten me further on the points? if u use Badaboom, which is optimized for CUDA, a 9600M GT can even transcode 3 times faster than a Core 2 Quad... if u use ATi AVIVO, which ATi claims to be optimized for ATi CAL, but actually it's not, it's juz going to use ur CPU to transcode... as for those free ones u can find in the Net, for sure they are going to be CPU based... and also, some new ones are optimized for SSE4.1 as well... but generally speaking, Core 2 will be slightly faster than K8 when comes to videos (it's number crunching after all)... but remember, both ARE slow compared to the GPU when comes to such work... |

HD4860 is really not cheap seriously...
juz look at those with HD4850 or GTX 260M... be prepared to be abt the same price range since HD4860 is even better than them... at the very least, imo it will be more expensive than MSI's gaming laptops with HD4850, which are already selling at rm4k+ to 5k... besides, 40nm RV770 is in tight supply, and AMD still ve to reserve some manufacturing capacity for RV870 as well, even though TSMC has improved on the quality... so whether HD4860 really will come out is another qn...

i am using asus a8jn, bought it two years ago, and very impressed with the service provided by Asus Service Center, so i will stick to this brand... Feel like getting a new laptop for myself, budget range will be from 4000 to 5000++, is captivated by N51VF, but i wonder if it is right to go for this model? its processor is equipped with 1066 FSB, but it is embedded with DDR2 800 MHZ Ram．and the another issue regarding to processor, not sure whether PXXXX and TXXXX with same core speed got significant different in terms of speed?

P = 25W, T = 35W... that's all...
the numbers are wat indicates the performance... for 1066MHz FSB, RAM running @ 533MHz DDR is already fast enuf... so 800MHz DDR is overkill... as for N51Vf... well, imo u may want to wait for N51Vn to reach MY then decide... it has GT 240M for graphic, better than the GT 130M On the Vf... but i ve to say, benchmarks are disappointing... u ve better choices with other brands... |

QUOTE ah could it be that they're making way for the K51AB? Hmm i dont see why U80v design + hd4860 at RM4k is impossible. K50's only about RM2.2K rite? Lets say the hd4570 is worth RM200, take tat out you have the K50 at RM2k. Then add a hd4860 would, well maybe cost RM1k? Now RM3k's the price. Another RM1k to do the styling and maybe give it a better processor. Beautiful hahaha. Good idea..... post it to Asus as design suggestion |

1st time buyer here.Need some opinions from the experienced. Is the
performance between U80V P8700 and F81SE P8700 the same? And I am still wondering to buy T6500 or P8700 since I hope that the laptop I am going to buy can stand for about 4 years and can run the most of the future application without any lag and the need to change a new laptop. I am not an extreme user. Your help will be very much needed. Thanks |

Is the Well, actually the performance between U80V P8700 and F81SE P8700, i would say they are almost the same. Just that from their outlook, it's totally different thing. Price wise, you are paying extra RM 400 for it. performance between U80V P8700 and F81SE P8700 the same?
