is Asus UL80vt a good performance laptop?

because it has powerful Nvidia G210m dedicated GC... and cheap price
but it is using CULV processor (SU 7300 1.30 Ghz, with turbo became 1.733)

i worry this laptop not balance.... processor is slower where GC is good
*
to be honest, G 210M is merely a value product as according to Nvidia...

there are many more other laptop models offering better performance...

Inspiron 14 iirc the most is HD4330 only... should be worse than, if not at the same lvl as, a G 210M...

Guys, I'm choosing between Dell Studio 15 and BenQ S57.

Similarities:
Same proc (p8700), Same RAM (4gb), Same Hdd (320Gb), Same 15.6"

Difference:
Dell Radeon 4570, BenQ Radeon 4650
Dell forces people to buy their stupid OS, BenQ gives Linux, which means I can install my own Ws7: Pro Edition
Dell has the custome casing which looked nicer, BenQ looks a bit normal
Dell can still customize more. Eg: 1080p Full HD Lcd, Backlit Keyboard, 7200rpm Hdd etc while BenQ can't do further changing

I would like to go for BenQ, but I do not have any friends using BenQ laptop. There was one using it, but he changed to Dell and praised Dell a lot. And I remember seeing him format his BenQ quite a lot of time lerh. To me, I think Dell's laptop are somehow better than BenQ. But, I can be wrong de marh.Ā  sweat.gif

Dell after customization is around Rm3500, with that stupid Ws7: Home Premium.
BenQ is selling for Rm3199 at LYN's StarTec price list.

Mind gimme advise?Ā  icon_question.gif

S57 iirc lowest is rm2899 with BD...

BenQ S41 ex-user... love the laptop, no complaints at all... (besides the NV GeForce 8M problem...)

guys, 5k budget
screen size can go up to 16"
most important is design and build quality.
Specs must be decent. No need the best.

Processors
Up to IntelĀ®  CoreTM  i7-820QM Mobile Processor (1.73GHz, turbo up to 3.06GHz, 6MB L3 Cache)

how can u turbo??

it will shut down all other 3 cores and overclock the remaining one to 3GHz...
