hi all sifus, need recommendation for a new lappy. now eyeing Dell Inspiron 14R, Acer 4745G or HP Compaq CQ42 - all with i5 CPU.
1. Brand - as above 2. Budget - RM2-2.6k 3. Specs - more to multi-tasker machine. not a serious gamer, but for leisure time only. also looking for lappy which had no problem to run for another 3-4 years (might use AutoCAD in 2 years time since i'm 1st year engineering student) 4. Size - preferably 14" thanks all  |

QUOTE(astria @ Jun 22 2010, 09:30 PM) Asus A42Dr, AMD N830 + ATi HD5470@RM2599 u re gonna love the tri core when u work... with a not too shabby graphic card for ur leisure time...   QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Jun 22 2010, 09:33 PM) Another choice would be Asus A42Dr, AMD N830 + ATi HD5470@RM2599... unfortunately asus brand is not available in my hometown (K.Trg) and I'm not a fan of asus lappy. so, now just narrowed my choice to those three. which one is the best you think? |

QUOTE(kae7 @ Jun 22 2010, 09:43 PM) go for Dell Inspiron 14R Acer 4745G has 3 yrs warranty [including 1 year international traveller warranty] or.. Acer 4820TG[if available there] .. battery can last for 8 hours QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Jun 22 2010, 09:44 PM) From those 3, I would say either Dell Inspiron 14R, Acer 4745G i think I'll go for Dell though. battery life is not very important since I'm not frequent traveller, just to ease my daily work as student With the Inspiron 14R comes with better after sales and Acer 4745G have better battery life with its switchable gpu... |
