QUOTE(sil3ntlif3 @ Dec 3 2009, 02:56 AM) I'm an interior design student and wanted a laptop for myself. Here's what I want. BenQ S57 (rm3399 iirc), S42 (rm2999 or below)1. Asus or BenQ 2. 3.5k below 3. intel i7/p8700,4gb ram 4. 14' -16' I have my eye on Dell Studio 15' with i7. But when I look around Asus I found out that I like Asus design more than dell's design. Is there any laptops that you can recommend? I can't see the price in their website. So... I might need some guidelines for the price. Asus U80V (rm3399 for P7450 config) Added on December 3, 2009, 12:31 pm QUOTE(cyril85 @ Dec 3 2009, 10:42 AM) I posted last 2 week for laptop recommendation which spec is Lenovo G450 with G 210M would be an alternative...around 2.5k, some gaming, 14-15 inch. as many people respond was Asus k40AB and Dell Studio 15. Dell 15 is a good choice but need to top up 200 make me consider till today. As PC fair is near at that time so I plan to wait till today, and hope more new model with better spec around. Laptop with GPU HD4570 cost 2.5k still only this two spec? any with GPU 4530? or NVIDIA G210M? that cheaper as I see benchmark of G210M performance is higher than HD4570. G210M is 3394 and HD4570 only 3312 in 3dMark06. if i going to buy laptop at low yat later, which shop recommend? anyway, G210M with DDR3 performs roughly the same as HD4570 with DDR2 (K40Ab/K50Ab), as u can see from the score u put down, both are 3.3k (difference of 100 pts in 3D Mark is negligible)... but HD4570 with GDDR3 (Studio 15) scores at least 4k in 3D Mark 06... Added on December 3, 2009, 12:32 pm QUOTE(sekelord @ Dec 3 2009, 10:30 AM) i wish to ask which processor is better, P = 25W, T = 35W, SU = 10W... that all that they mean... performance has got nothing to do with these prefix...P series processor? T series processor? SU series processor? i7/i5 i think is out since it is very expensive budget around 3000 ,need dedicated graphics can some frens out there help me differentiate what each processor is doing? can throw me examples comparing them? mobility, reliability are my concern pls help for rm3k with dedicated graphic, BenQ S42 would be the best bet (P8700 with 9600M GT)... next up would be Dell Studio 15 (T6600 with HD4570) Added on December 3, 2009, 12:33 pm QUOTE(dranza @ Dec 3 2009, 12:04 PM) I'm looking for a laptop well, currently the HD4600 series are better performers than GT 240M and GT 230M...budget <=4k usage, mainly for gaming and occasionally some movie and school works Specs dont care much, can at least play game with lowest/medium setting can liao, prefer Intel processor and Nvidia graphic cards size 14" or 15", weight not to heavy can liao prefer below 3kg Currently interested in this Lenovo Ideapad Y550 C2D P8700 2.53GHz CPU 4GB DDR3 ; 500GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce GT 240M 1GB any recomendation?

QUOTE(sekelord @ Dec 3 2009, 12:47 PM) so i compare the FSB and L2cache make the difference? for Core 2, yes, FSB and cache do make a difference... but not as high an impact as the clock speed itself...regarding the Ghz? the SU series processor has lower Ghz but might be the higher L2 cache and higehr FSB Added on December 3, 2009, 9:15 pm QUOTE(cyril85 @ Dec 3 2009, 02:47 PM) I saw others tread which astria said that c2duo cannot support ddr3 ram. how about gpu ddr3? can it support? whether u can use DDR3 on a Core 2 platform, depends on the mobo chipset...the current 4 series chipset do support DDR3... what i meant was, DDR3 dun give u significant performance gain compared to DDR2...

QUOTE(anti-informatic @ Dec 5 2009, 12:45 AM) So if i look for multimedia work like developing heavy flash animation and not for gaming, below 3k, i would say BenQ S42...dell studio 15 is good choice? or benq s42? from wat i gathered from Nvidia website, the latest Forceware driver, when used together with Flash 10.1 (currently still in beta), will allow the GPU to provide hardware acceleration... not sure abt how ATi's going to work around with it, but Nvidia is usually the one that comes out with/support new features... Added on December 5, 2009, 1:19 am QUOTE(amd9999 @ Dec 5 2009, 12:48 AM) hello guys need some help to buy new laptop.. maybe going to buy on sunday/ thanks in advance. even integrated graphic is good enough... getting one with dedicated GPU AND Win7 is difficult...1)Budget - 1.5k ~ 2k (new) 2)Usage of laptop - surfing/ facebook game /some dota 3)Size/Weight - 13 - 15 inch / weight any but not too heavy 4)Brand - asus / dell / toshiba / lenovo (intel) hope can get windows 7 genuie This post has been edited by astria: Dec 5 2009, 01:19 AM |
