@craw thanks bro...well, i bet HD4570 > Nvidia g 105M biggrin.gif

from benchmark, i can see 4570 thumping over 105, but i see acer has VHP bundled haha...

but tbh, i never liked acer design =.=... u know i once called acer laptops as 'cash register' i mean, look at the color, the bulkiness haha >.<

Waa the forum propagate so fast lul...Anyways another question. I find that most games run well at 1024 x 600 but here's the thing...I've tried the mobility modder and managed to create and install the latest Catalyst drivers but then the resolution of 1024 x 600 is not available (all widescreen resolutions under 1280 x ### not available compared with the stock drivers). Is there a way to add in this resolution to the new drivers again?

most major shops should have k40ab easily. k50ab, the other story, have to preorder.

i meant the lappy came with kingston 2gb ram.. got extra slot left for ur next upgrade..
just JEDEC standard for 800mhz 5-5-5-15 1.8V.. no worry much..

but not advisable to buy the ram now as recently the price raise up..
IIRC last time 2gb can get <RM100 now maybe ~RM140

better check it after u buy the laptop to avoid incompatibility issue...
IINM my friend's came with hyundai/apacer..

normally kingston less prob..
