fyi .. there is no benq s42 come with 512mb 9600gt .. ~ so their is no price comparison ^^
and there is a question .. did TS bought the machine already ?? ~ or jz quotation ?

so, the dedicated only 256MB, ic.
@TS, it still a good notebook

quotation, haven't buy yet. sry late reply. lol

oic .. ~ okie .. reply u over benq thread .. ~

quite powerful notebook, just go for it...

conventionally speaking, for Nvidia cards the amount of RAM affects only the usable resolution... for 1280x800, 256MB is good enuf... more often than not, the speed of the RAM has a big impact on performance...

unless u re using at resolutions like 1680x1050 and above, dun worry too much abt the graphic RAM...

nice lappy with nice price u got there. can tahan lama one.

wow~ur s42 is so cheap wor~i go ask.....at leat 3200...futhermore not good like ur this perfomance....

price drop ? coz i saw ppl selling s42 at 2999 too in kelantan

256mb 9600m gt Gddr3 beats the crap out of my 1GB 9600m gt ddr2

So this BenQ S42 is your best choice

Juz went to Mines.

Saw a good offer

s42+2yrs warranty+4gb ddr2+ razor mouse+ backpack = rm2988..

WHAT?

is 320gb version or 500gb version ??

320gb

TS, u still need suggestion?? i am a S42 user also...very first batch..proccesor only 2.26Ghz..but trust me, for the money u spend, it would be very worthy...

if u wanna look at performance, click on my siggy and u'll be quite a list of games being benchmarked, i recall playing crysis warhead in ultra high texture with mid shader and low shadow, can get around 30fps..other games like burnout paradise i can easily get 50fps++ with near maximum settings..

sadly, it does get hot easily, after all, it's a 14.1'' laptop, not much space for air flow..ur card might hit 80C++ or even 90C++ in graphic intense games..but dun worry, mine is one years old, and still kicking ass, and i heard this card is meant to take high temperatures

and if u want longer battery also, just switch to intel GMA. I get around 2-3 hours with max brightness watching HD movie...and WiFi also is turned on i remember...
