Hello im interested with this model.. anyone have the latest price.. and can i know where can i check the specs for msia version? thanks ..

Acer 4551, Athlon II P320 + ATi HD4250, FreeDOS@RM1499

wat do u mean increase our visual and decrease the performance? wat performance u mention?

Dx11 will generate more beautiful graphic with their tessellation and everything but of course it will stress your GPU more. so your FPS will decrease if compared when gaming in Dx9/10 with Dx11 relatively.

there are some rumor said that the coming CCC10.5 will improve on HD5k series tessellation capability

u can check it out here..

Thanks for the links.. is it cheaper to buy online than go to shop? anyone know how many memory slot it has? thanks!

Well, buying online?? I guess its better you just buy it from any computer shops ..Acer Aspire 4551 got 2 slots for RAM ..you can upgrade it till 8GB if budget permits

better to go to shop...i'm planning to get this model too!!!...with an upgrade to 3Gb...

@fast
Upgrade to 3GB is kind of a waste...4GB ...

owh.. go to shop.. ^^ alright.. will go and ask the shop see how much it cost.. ^^ but its not preloaded with win7 rite?

Should be FreeDos @RM1499 ...well, you can always nego for a Window installation ..maybe can get a cheaper price

freeDOS mean got linux rite..? does not familiar with the shop in KL haha..

Yup, but FreeDos is kinda ..maybe you can install Ubuntu instead ..download it free from Ubuntu website

Haha.. no lar.. dont really get used to other OS beside windows.. better stick to the old one.. hope to get a good price for win7 and ram..

Yes, you can always ask for discount ...just remember to give a little review about your laptop when you get it

ok sure.. might get it this weekend or next week if the price is good.. anyway there are no specific thread for this laptop rite?

u can get the one with Windows 7 and 2GB ram at RM1799.00...its the Recommended retail price..u can even check it out at the link i gave earlier..

also, if u get from a shop, some of them will give u free gifts...for me,they offer me 10 gifts...but i'm looking to nego with them the ram price... at my place,extra 2gb ram cost around Rm180++ le...cut throat...

budget over balloon lor...

yeap, i will too...in fact was considering creating a thread at notebook specific section there..

haha.. 10gifts!? so much man!! but the link u gave me earlier r from penang.. and im in KL currently.. haha.. going back to sabah soon.. i assume that the laptop price here are cheaper so better get 1 before i go back..

oic.. .u can ask them how many gifts they are giving...anyway,if u want the one with OS and 2gb,..its priced at Rm1799.00...unless of cuz u know how to install OS urself...then u can get the RM1499.00
