Ya, I know CS:S not quite high requirement however 2k notebook I scare use photoshop will suffer

haha. But I never own a laptop so not sure hows the performance between a 2k laptop and a 5k laptop.

pS: your link of Vaio Z is updated verion. hehe smile.gif


and no specific weight, I really don't care ? how heavy can it be lol.


Portability not necessarily need to be ultra portable lol. I thought Laptop all are portable.

Well, he has 7k budget, can upgrade to GTX260M...

I've read some review, they say is not wise just to upgrade to GTX260M and maintain the i7 - 720.



Well,It can exceed March but it is risky lol. Anyway I don't think the Vaio Z is good in terms of performance:price ratio.
330M is the 300 series right ? means its newer than 200Series I assume. Well it has better techno then > Alienware (but not 260M)


Seems like Alienware is the way. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif
