Hi,
I wan to buy a laptop within dis week but i still not decide which 1 to buy. 1 on my list is S42. Can any1 give me better idea / opinion on dis model (GPU/CPU performances, heat, weight, money value, comparison to another model/brand etc, etc...), since dis model is quiet old (P8700 not i5...). Main concerns: games, long usage, multitasking, can withstand 4 another 2-3 years (in terms of performance), budget (<RM2900). Very appreciate 4 ur help  |

MANY THNX!!!
 About d heat, when playing games, if I use cooler(now using Cooler Master one...), how much d temp will drop? @ blindbox: taking 4 exp: ASUS A42JR (i5 430M + ATI 5470HD) and DELL Vostro 3700 (i5 430M + NV GT330M + BIGGG 17 inch screen -not on my list). If compare with these models, ??>??>?? in terms of CPU/GPU performance? |
