QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Nov 7 2009, 03:23 PM) well, for me, its not, since at that price, I can get benq s42 with p8700 and nvidia 9600m gt, I've been looking at that asus ul30 x5 for a looong time already! How much is it right now? It doesn't have a DVD burner though..Hmmm...How much to buy another standalone dvd burner?but are you always maxing your processor usage? culv notebook, acer timeline series, asus ul series, hp dm series 13'': acer 3810T, asus ul30a, hp dm3 14'': acer 4810TG, asus ul80vt 15'': acer 5810T, asus ul50vt  I don't really trust acer, as i've heard many complaints about them... QUOTE(WoodStock @ Nov 7 2009, 03:30 PM) well, basically i am looking for a problem free laptop. because the time to computer down, repair, lost of data, would cost me more. and i dont need graphic card because i pay facebook game only. well, may be i am bias, but i dont trust benq. worry if have a lot problem after sometime of using.. No worries about Benq..They've been a solid performer for me  |

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Nov 7 2009, 05:44 PM) p7450 & g105m ddr2 get 2k in 3dmark 06, expect little boost from gddr3, America don't have BenQ...==" hahaha..p8600 & hd4570 gddr3 gets 4k in 3dmark 06 but if can strecth abit budget, benq s42 is better choice. p8700 and 9600m gt gddr3, score 6k. So any other suggestions for me?? I need looong batt life + decent performance, i don't edit pics very often, but it'll be nice if the laptop won't lag while I edit pics.. Dm1 or Dm3z from hp seem like good candidates. And Asus UL30-X5 seems like it suits me too.. |

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Nov 8 2009, 05:55 PM) well, the gpu is a step up from macbook but the processor still slower than the macbook Ohh..But the price is almost same as a macbook dy right? Mac has only 160gb hdd though..haha..Batt life not as long too.. should be 3k. Added on November 8, 2009, 5:57 pm usage? size? QUOTE(-kytz- @ Nov 8 2009, 05:58 PM) Just go for it since it can suit all of your requirements.Design is appealing too Well, I was thinking since the price is close to a macbook..hahah..Don't you think Mac is cool?  Btw, just what's up with this Apple "wow" factor here  The design and all..It's just so appealing!I'm now looking at some acer timeline models as well..such as AS 1810TZ...Does it have optical drive? UL80Vt is the best dy lar...But I'm hoping there'll be a price drop soon LIke for the Black Friday Sale in US.. |
