=.= brand don't matter dude!....

ODM and OEM's are behind it.. dont worry.. Brand stands for their service/support for my opinion.. and so does most notebookreview members.. biggrin.gif

well what i meant was quality by brand, as i've heard much about acer's laptop quality being cheap. is it that acer's improved or you meant something else?

is that for real? that's crazy rm3k for those specs? =O

but then again it's acer...im worried for the brand itself

i am (still) a owner for Acer over 4 years...
one thing i REGRET til today..is...
in 4 years....
NOTHING happened no matter how long i open it to download bt/botting online game...
NEVER entered service center for FOUR years...
i regret i wasted 298 for the 3 years warranty...

but then...seriously...brand only mattered when ur preference...is important to have a laptop that you love~

Parts are OEM Intel, Nvidia, ATI, Quanta, Samsung, Kingston, Hynix, Foxconn, WD, Seagate and too amny more.. dont bother..

build and design? well thats where the brand comes in .. For me i'd be worry on how to take care of it..

Most cases i see ppl blame the brand even when the ram, cpu, gpu, ram, hdd fails.. its not the fault of the brand.. because those are OEM parts..

most acers utilize AMD, so overgaming causes heat problems. i only game less than 3 hours a day, and i dont ven use a cooler. IMO, it's how you interpret "laptop gaming" as viable

those heat management on AMD is old old news. check out Asus k40/50ab ..and c how many satisfied users are there. Palm rest is even cooler than studio 15 intel based doh.gif
