Its old model, hardly can find this anymore

@TS

earn money, buy alienware... kewl. but consider G73... as i said b4. it makes me woo.

haha, yeah, the 1 u saw also on display.

I will vote for Dell Studio XPS 1647 .... Wunderbar ...

more interested with another 16" killer like Asus N81Vp (wat i am using now... )... T9550/T9600 + HD4650/HD4670 in 14"...

hopefully N82 is sth liddat as well...

Same like me, though 16" seems tempting with it size and spec, if can find something like N81Vp would be better for me as i prefer 14" above all ..but now got M11x which can be a killer too

haha, yeah m11x... but it's not that good when comes to CPU-intensive games like Shattered Horizon...

still prefer regular CPU when comes to gaming...

Well, got to sacrifice something for it to be a mobility laptop (which why SU proc is used for more battery life )...well, same with me though, prefer using a regular proc ..

Still got Y460, i5 + HD5650, starting price US$1200 or the rumoured Acer Timeline 3820TG (i7 2.66ghz + HD5650 in 13'', 1.8kg, not yet confirmed though)

omg?? Acer 3280TG? i7-620M 2.66GHz??? +HD5650?? waa.. lol

SOunds imposible in the 13"..

Well, i got to say that nothing is impossible now ...got to see how will they design the cooling system

its lower end would come with HD5470 though....

seems like too much of 310M and HD5470 at the start of this year

As to keep in topic, seems like forgotten about HP DV6, i7 820QM + Nvidia GT320M@RM4999

Yaya, the Asus N81Vp was initially the laptop I was aiming for. It has the best mobility and the punch among all 14.1' laptops, there wasn't much competition anyway, the only rival I could think of is from Sony. Very good job by ASUS in introducing 14 inch gaming laptop into the niche ^___^
It is sad that it doesn't come with the i core processors (at the moment I think) @____@, and also it may have a problem of heat dissipation due to its smaller size T____T If not I would've bought it instead of an 15.6' T____T
Anyway, ASUS did a very good job, cheers!

N82 is the successor of N81? O____O

Added on March 5, 2010, 9:23 amWah.... don't make me regret buying a 15.6' laptop ah hahaha XD XD
Me too, I always believe 14.1 inch laptops are the best in terms of balance for power and mobility ^^
M11x may have a starting price of RM 3,499 (If I remembered correctly), but after some slight customization and warranty extension to 3 years.. The price can reach 5K also, which is almost the same price as these 15- 16' monsters hahaha XD
The M11x may seemed expensive because it is much smaller.... but an inner part of me is pushing me to go for it hahaha ^____^
Applause for Alienware!! I've seen the M15x and M17x (finally T____T) and I am deeply impressed... haven got the chance to see the M11x though ^^ eager!

Added on March 5, 2010, 9:27 amWah.... technology advancement nowadays are so horribly rapid! I haven't got my new laptop but I've already felt that it is outdated liao hahaha XD
Agreed, the cooling system would be the most crucial part for something that small with that much power. Well, if the M11x can make it, so could others ^^

not much problem with heat, actually...

max i get during games is 8xC only, and CPU never exceeds 75C...

Yalo.... seems like recently its very common to find GPUs in a majority of laptops already.... Its good for improving IT technology but it is sad (or maybe I'm jealous) when I see people using high- end gaming laptops ONLY to surf internet (some people merely buy M11x because of the looks and use it for net surfing... very very very very envy arrrrr T____T) Exchange laptops with me, I will put it to "better" use!! hahaha

Eh???? The DV6 is so (relatively) cheap only?! The processor seems promising but the GPU I think it has the poorest graphic card among all the rivals @____@ Pity.... I like HP's laptop designs very much T_____T

Added on March 5, 2010, 9:38 amPlease excuse me noobishness....
Is 8x Celsius degrees normal for a gaming laptop? Seems like very hot lo, can cook egg le XD XD
Perhaps because my old M100 has a lower-end GPU and processor so the temperature never exceeds 70 C even when gaming O_____O

it's sort of expected to be hot...

mid-end GPU + 35W CPU is definitely a formula for heat...

i was expecting 9xC on the GPU during load and probably 8xC on the CPU... but hey, it's on par with my old laptop with T7100 and 8600M GS (also 14" - 7xC for CPU and 8xC on GPU)

so it goes to show the cooling that Asus has done in the laptop, even though they are made with better technology...

the downside of the laptop is, it's heavier than most 14" in the market, probably due to the increased mass of the heatsink/heatpipes used...

Wah, so many people vote for Dell Studio ..
Ts ,will you regret ? Because quite some number of people voted Dell >.<

I was also one who voted for DELL hahaha XD
But I voted for Toshiba too ^^
Neh, I won't regret (it was a tough decision to make initially) since I cannot afford the core i7 XPS 16 anyway T___T and I just love Harman/Kardon speakers. Additionally, Toshiba and I got bond liao hahaha! ^_____^ I am a Toshiba user (ranging from light bulbs to washing machine XD XD) and I know that they're items are very reliable, which is why I chose Toshiba over the tempting XPS 16 ^^.

just to add, kinda off topic.
you can purchase the new Z with Core i5-540M Processor 2.53 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.06 GHz , NVIDIA 330M + Intel HD Hybrid Graphic, 500GB HD 7200rpm, 4GB RAM, Win 7 Pro 64bit at RM5999, tho the built dvd/blu ray is not included.

I vote for Acer 5472G

WOW! Even though this is just an 13' laptop, but it seriously par (if not better) most of the 15' laptops mentioned above ar >____<
Damn IT advances very fast ^^
