no experience using lappy bro

lappy is also a computer wat... no much diff than a desktop...

so.. whats the use of the cache and stuffs which are listed down.. i've no idea what are those..

so now basically.. the athlon and turion dont have much diff in terms of speed rite.. but power saving and heat does make a difference?

still contemplating on to finding a turion model.. haiz..

and amd for gaming is FTW lar haha

another question here..

TS's k40ab processor supports oni 667Mhz for the ram??

the brochure i got says its 800Mhz support eh?

cache is for the CPU to store frequently used data so that it doesn't need to retrieve from the RAM or HDD, thus making the process much quicker...

usually, more cache would help, but too much, is not necessarily a good thing also, as too much will increase the time to search as well...

for AMD K8 CPU, cache doesn't really help so much, they are not shared anyway... it's the speed that really counts...

wonder if theres something wrong in the price list here..

AMD Turion X2 QL64-2.1Ghz
2GB DDR2 PC667 Dual Channel
250GB Ultra DMA harddisk
and so on..

the processor is a mistake itself right?
and the ram given is double 1Gb rite? which makes it dual channel.. and its only 667Mhz?

cause i was looking for k50ab at lyp but dont hv stock at the time im buying but nvm i will buy another k50ab at coming pc fair II lo... really like this lappy.

all correct except for CPU...

a AMD QL64 is definetely an Athlon... Turion is TL, while Turion Ultra is ZM...

using 667MHz makes sense since that's the max speed that an Athlon can support... u'll need a Turion if u want to use 800MHz instead...

the ram inside is 2X1gb one huh? aiks...like this if i add ram then haven to take one of them out la?

when u buy try ask the shop if u can upgrade on the spot lor...

or juz sell them off...

Kuching, Sarawak PC fair during 7-9/08/09 is canceled oh... :'(
I have 2 questions need to ask all de sifu dy.

1. Is it possible that I ask the shop give me 1X2GB instead of 2X1GB, cuz I have a extra 1GB DDR2 667MHz on my hand.. waste if not use it la... lol

2. since K40AB comes with a Asus carrying bag, can i add some money & change it to a backpack??

Thanks

well it all depends on the supplier that your buying from, but it won't hurt if you ask them.

arghhhh!!! so next week my dad decided to buy this lappie 4 me, but around next next week, pcfair coming out........should i wait for pcfair??? o.O
sorry, im quite newb 4 this thing.......din go to pcfair bfore

i doubt pcfair will be cheaper, as this laptop is already very cheap... usually they juz give u more freebies...

wait......if i'll wait 4 pcfair, chances are i get:

1) cheaper prices
2)freebies

but, i heard that freebies are normally junk??? not?? lol.......

tq 4 the reply tho

not exactly cheaper, just more freebies and promotions. junk or no junk, depends on yourself

i really doubt it will go any lower... it's already very cheap...

If a lot of competitor, price will go down a bit I guess. See who start the war first...

nah... u juz see the closes competitor in terms of price...

Compaq CQ40, Turion x2 + HD3450
Acer 4736, C2D T6500 + G 105M
Asus K40Ab, Athlon x2 + HD4570

pretty obvious isn't it???
