Make sure the laptop you're looking at has a 1080p screen resolution.If it's just 720p,then you're only watching a downscaled 720p as the screen can only show 720p and not 1080p

i5+HD5650 is a total overkill for 1080p video playback sweat.gif

For movie and gaming ma~~ i5+HD5650 for gaimg, 1080p for full HD movie.. rclxms.gif

Any notebook with that so far?

Closest that fit the requirement, Asus G51Jx@RM5.2k at mucro.asia
http://www.mucro.asia/index.php?/Asus-Note...s-G51Jx-A1.html
Else, only either the spec (Acer 5942G/Asus N61Ja, i5 520M) or the screen (Dell SXPS 16)
*
Asus G51Jx using i7 + GTS360 >< Not i5+5650 >< maybe is the closest as u say XD

5.2k is expensive lo XD

HD3670 to HD4670 was a free upgrade smile.gif

Why not HD4670 to HD5770?Dell should know that this step will ward off competitors thumbup.gif

Would they provide free upgrade for 4670 to 5770 ? drool.gif

I wonder whether dell would be so kind nowadays tongue.gif Their laptop are a bit expensive ><

I don't, mind on the brand as long as its reliable or common, I have a budget of 3.5k or so, decent specs like i5 processor/4gig, upgradeable to 8/decent graphic card, good for gaming/multi-tasking and 15" screen.

I'm planning to buy a laptop within the week, my forced choice is Acer Aspire 5740 unless there's a better alternative, I'm all ears. btw is Aspire 5942 a good laptop?

Aspire 5942 is not bad rclxms.gif

Can, its just that the video will be downscaled to 720p....

QUOTE(BeastX @ Mar 12 2010, 07:51 PM)
Actually down scalled to the scree's res. (which is @1366x768... or any other screen res)... the only typical notebook screen that actually does 720p (1280x720 @16:9) is the 1280x768 screen (that is actually 16:10)
