@Bananalow
You do know that the HD4570 is so inferior compared to the HD4670? And have u seen the SXPS 16 to begin with?I bet you'll change your mind Build quality wise, i can tell u the Dell Studio 15 is the inferior one.Looks is pretty subjective but IMHO, its much better Normally: Budget 4k?Take SXPS 16 Budget 3k?Take Dell Studio 15 |

well, studio xps 16 still can play latest games, its just that you need to lower the resolution, perhaps to 1366x768 or 1280x720
since running latest games at 1920x1080 really taxing on the graphic card pretty much this is the best gpu you can get under 5k in malaysian market, unless you willing to import from outside...... |

How about other models from Dell or other brands?since running latest games at 1920x1080 really taxing on the graphic card pretty much this is the best gpu you can get under 5k in malaysian market, unless you willing to import from outside...... Anyway for SXPS16 i7 model, how's i7-720QM compared to upcoming i7-620M (http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/notebooks/0,39050495,62060649,00.htm)? I think sooner or later more new models will come with i7-620M instead of i7-720QM. |

yes, sxps 16 is best option for 5k budget,
unless you are willing to import such as sager notebooks or asus g-series with gtx260m above, e.g. asus g51jx, rm 5.2k, with gts 360m http://www.mucro.asia/index.php/Asus-Noteb...us-G51J-A1.html or g51vx from ebay, should come less than 5k with gtx260m as for i7-720Qm vs i7-620M, I can say they are different league, since one is dual core while the other one is quad core, if mainly for gaming, get the dual core the quad core is more appropriate for rendering, video encoding, etc.... |
