QUOTE(hctang @ May 31 2010, 10:39 PM) QUOTE(kae7 @ May 31 2010, 10:18 PM) lenovo is good...  do you travel/stay oversea..? yes,. asus offer 2 yrs global warranty.. well Asus N82JV[i5 520M + GT335] one of the good choice too..its priced RM 3999 it has 1 USB 3.0 which is 10 times faster than normal USB 2.0 .. the Nvidia GT 335 with optimus technology is really good actually... but still lose than HD 5650 in term of directx support... it doesnt support DirectX11 which is not suitable if u want to use the laptop for couple years.. and play newer games which require DirectX11 .. GT335 only support until DirectX10.1 ... Lenovo Y460[i5 540M + HD5650] is still better choice.. it has better processor too... so.. its up to you.. Lenovo Y460 [i5 540M + HD5650] , RM 3599 - better processor Sony Vaio EA16 [i5 520M + HD5650] , RM 3999 - its VAIO !! , and has various color option[5 options to choose] , stylish looks Dell Studio XPS 16 [i5 430M + HD5650] , RM 4200 - FullHD resolution !! , stylish looks,nice color.. Asus N82JV [i5 520M + GT335] - USB 3.0 !! , 2yrs international warranty...  haha.. i see...guess have to think wisely =D 1 last question.. is gt 335 performs almost like 5650? except it has no DirectX11 but it has better driver by NVIDIA QUOTE(Shawnzz @ May 31 2010, 10:46 PM) imo 5hour is enough for me, but the longer the better right? btw, im using it for college use. so it would be great if i wouldnt need to bring the charger around college. then.. you need CULV laptop...

so which do you recommend? the 14r, asus ul30a , or the asus a42j
i just need good enough spec to last me for 2-3 years, portable (13-15') , good battery life (>5hours more or less) , good value, durable. Not interested to use it to game since i have a desktop at home and btw, if i buy the dell, can i skip all the hassle of buying it tru online and just go to the shop and buy it straight from the shelf? |
