So in other words, A42DR isn't available anymore (or doesn't produce anymore by the factory)? A42JE is pricing at RM1999 (if I'm not mistaken) along with i3-370m 2.4GHz (which I suppose is better than A42DR's AMD Turion II P520 2.3GHz processor).
On top of that, does that means that A42JE actually beats A42DR? |

I have seen the A42DR in LYP today.
The Intel Core series is still more powerful than its AMD counterpart. |

But this is generally more powerful in day to day applications as well.comparing these 2 specs, which one is better in 3D gaming? i5-560M with 1GB ATI 5650 and 4GB Ram i7-740M with 1GB ATI 5730 and 6GB Ram Thanks |

QUOTE(clon12 @ Sep 25 2010, 12:02 AM) In other words, A42JE pwns? Frankly in that price range yes. But once you start upping the budget by several hundred RM, your options extend to the A42Jv. |
