well, basically i dun see the pt in overclocking for a CULV, since the most important thing abt them is low power consumption and not performance...
moreover conventionally, ATi GPU produces better colour compared to Nvidia, and easier when dealing with HD videos... that may help since u're dealing with presentations... |

u wouldn't want to take an extra battery along... it's heavier than u expect...
if u want both performance and battery life, perhaps Asus U80V... C2D T6500 with HD4570, 14" @ 2.1kg (light for a regular 14" laptop), and users report abt 5hrs of batt life... |

well, SU4100 is fine... main difference with SU7300 is that lack of Virtualization Technology...
other than that, they both have same spec (1.3GHz, 3MB L2 cache, 800MHz FSB) |

U50Vg - G 105M
UL80Vt - G 210M UL80Vt wins...  well, for autocad, a decent CPU is needed... UL80Vt is still ur best choice as u can overclock if u need the extra power for ur work, and back to normal when u dun need it... the dedicated GPU is also helpful for autocad as well... i think M1X said it's 7.5hrs on UL80Vt even with ocerclock rit??? |

not really...
Asus juz make it easier to overclock using softwares... there are tonnes of software to overclock in the Internet, juz that it requires some settings, and may be intimidating to those who ve no idea wat is FSB, HT, multiplier, etc... Added on November 9, 2009, 10:07 am QUOTE(killz23 @ Nov 9 2009, 01:02 PM) I know..I mean if use netbook, can use autocad on it? haha..that'll be funny.. seriously, u wouldn't want netbook for serious work... as the name suggests, it's ok for Net surfing and basic office works...Average student notebook enough lar..but looks good the best..haha.. But I thought would at least NOT die every now and then on the user ma..If liddat, i'd rather cough out some extra dough to get better lo..haha.. What's turbo33? THe overclock thingy? more over 10" screen for autocad?? ?that's juz too small... This post has been edited by astria: Nov 9 2009, 10:07 AM |

QUOTE(M1X @ Nov 9 2009, 12:59 PM) About the overclock thing, I really unsure! Other software like Everest and PassMark reads only 1GHz while I running Quite Office mode, but CPU-Z reads 2.1GHz all the way (I think CPU-Z more thrust worthly, cuz 1GHz is logically really slow. Plus, it not logic that I can play GRiD over 1GHz on Entertainment mode...) officially speaking, G 210M do not support CUDA becuz of Nvidia's new policy of CUDA for mobile cards...And... I ran 2.1GHz during my battery test session?! Posted 7.5 hours?! That's INSANE! Also, note that G210M supports Nvidia CUDA, while G105M not. Do AutoCAD software banefits from CUDA? If yes, then it a real nice choice to choose laptop with CUDA supports. It can speed up process tremendously. in the latest Forcware for mobile from Nvidia, u'll see that it writes CUDA is only for those GPU with 32SP and 256MB RAM... so the minimal for each generation of cards would be GeForce 8600M GT, GeForce 9500M GS, GeForce GT 120M and GeForce GT 220M... of course, u can always bypass that with modded driver.. .  Added on November 9, 2009, 10:10 am QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Nov 9 2009, 01:08 PM) perhaps the same with the turbo on msi gaming notebook should be, but MSI is more convenient... there's a button on the laptop itself to do the work...

QUOTE(killz23 @ Nov 9 2009, 01:17 PM) Ugh...some technical terms flying around..Confused dy....Why can't you guys just conclude and say like, "Asus UL80V is better because the software beats MSI"...Instead of GPU D200203M is faster by 30% with Dual-threading technology edging past MSI which has Gforce N3094823AP with 1.39939KGHz processor running Triple-Multiple-Threading technology... well, u probably will need to understand some of these terms in order to maximise the performance of the laptop... anyway, my pick is still Asus UL80Vt, mainly becuz: 1) less than rm3k 2) super long battery life 3) CPU can be overclocked by 33% to provide more performance for ur work 4) the dedicated G 210M can provide some degree of hardware acceleration for ur work, and still allow u to play games, mostly at mid settings... Added on November 9, 2009, 10:24 am QUOTE(M1X @ Nov 9 2009, 01:20 PM) HAHAHAHAHA, NOW I FINALLY UNDERSTAND !!!! try battery saving mode and see how far u ca go...  SInce the first day I bought this laptop, it ALREADY running on TURBO mode! THe red "ON" button actually is the STATUS, not the button to turn ON turbo mode... LOL!!! Now I turned OFF the turbo, and the CPU roll back to 1.7GHz. So UL80VT REALLY topped 7.5 hours on OVERCLOCKED stat!!! So, reaching 0ver 10 hours on normal stat IS REALLY POSSIBLE!!
