Benq S42 or S57.

benq s57 > studio xps 16? coz xps 16 u can customize the stuff, but from 4k, i customized to 5k, so still thinking.
xps 16 looks great! while the benq s57 looks bulky and normal. blush.gif

Yeah, design is another matter altogether. But if you are seriously considering a 5k rig, may I take that to be your absolute maximum budget?

yup. 5k max. hoping for something in between 3-5k if possible. smile.gif

Then the SXPS 16 is definitely a good choice. Another one you may want to consider is MSI's GX725 which sports a HD4850, 17" screen and Blu-Ray reader that makes it ideal for entertainment purposes. One note though, the GX725 native resolution is 1680x1050, not full HD.

hmm.. coz it will be touching 5k for the sxps 16 if i upgrade the warranty to 3years, 500gb hd(7200rpm), and 4GB ram. any other brands u can recommend with that budget? How bout Sony,Toshiba? becoz my previous HP, bought around 5.3k 4 years ago, broke down due to motherboard failure. sad.gif

I need help picking a laptop for college
My budget is around 3.5k+-
I will be doing alot of photoshop (cs4,element 8.0 and lightroom 2.0)
Maybe some C++ work. A nice LCD would be a great
Able to run games like HON
Prefer to have a backlit keyboard
Sometimes I have to work at night and the laptop must be portable
I want a light and small one (13 or 14") brows.gif
The OS I will install myself. Prefer to have a fast HDD but no SSD. No money  tongue.gif
Probably HDMI ports with card readers(SD).

Thanks
