I have no idea... Special leather paint? XD

If i upgrade from i5-520M to i5-540M + 3yrs Complete Care it'll cost me RM5314
But an upgrade from i5-430M to i5-540M + 3yrs Complete Care only costs me RM5056

Everything else is the same. So why 2 diff prices for the same specs?

Ahh... I see i see. So that's how one SA could give me a deal that's ~RM300 less than the others. Thought i really got a good discount pulak

w00t it works!!! Thanks a bunch!

@lee_what
Lowest SA offer is ~RM100 more than if i buy directly online + dell coupon. But then again i didn't bargain through the phone. I just emailed a couple of them and compared their offers.

Just when i thought i've given up on Dell putting in the new GPU...

@kytz
Hurt? No lah... Haven't close the deal yet~ So continue with the waiting game... *sigh*

That's the thing... I thought i read that HD5730 isn't really significantly better than the HD4670, especially without GDDR5. Only improvement is the DX11?

It is pretty good especially for a non-hardcore gamer like me... But if a little bit of patience means i can get better goods for the same bucks, why not?

Yalah i've been hanging around this forum since last year... Went through the whole process of which laptop should i buy, with great help from fellow forumers Even *almost* bought one, but then tak jadi pulak *sigh* Maybe wait for PC Fair and squeeze an 8GB pendrive out of them? XD I know, it's just a pendrive, but i happened to have lost mine and need one haha

@khodin
Config=specs. U answered my question anyway, haha tnx

Not urgent, but patience is wearing off... XDXDXD

HD5730 isn't *significantly* faster than HD4670, isit? I kinda doubt i'd be able to tell the difference

Congrats

Have been patient for far too long already. This coming PC Fair at KLCC, i'm getting my own baby XD

Looking for zagg-like transparent shield for the cover + palm rest area... Don't want my greasy fingers to get fingerprints all over it once i get it. What're you guys using?

Well, yeeeeaaaaarrs ago it used to be in PWTC. But these couple of years it has always been in KLCC

@hit-able
It's on the 16th to 18th Apr

I doubt it'll be considerably cheaper. I'm probably buying there for the freebies. Or not. We'll see what their offer's like.

I thought the power throttling issue was never an issue?

At least not in the units they sell to Malaysian customers...?

Erm, hope the war's over?

Finally, i'm the proud owner of a Studio XPS 1647!!! Posting on my new baby now Weeeee.... Chrome is downloading in the background while i'm removing the crapwares XD

My baby's a 1647 i5-520M, 4GB RAM, ATI 4670 1GB. Got it from PC Fair for RM 4,499, with the standard 12 freebies, plus my dad squeezed out a 4GB pendrive, universal adapter + external speaker from them. Oh, and the Targus backpack.

Removed a bunch of stuff... Erm, should i get the Mobility Modder thingy installed? A while back i read something about Creative's X-Fi not so good? Which one u guys recommend?

I wanted black, they only have black, so all's good Yeah i'm gonna upgrade the warranty to 3 yrs asap. And oh, one more good thing about my purchase, they allow installment at no extra charge
