QUOTE(verdangilte @ Jun 19 2010, 04:16 PM) i am not using for design de well, Asus has always been good when comes to heat...just sometimes play game basically , i dun hope that the TEMP will too HEAT i am using Asus N81Vp... during gaming, even the temperature shoots to 90+C, i dun feel any heat coming from the keyboard at all... but of course, this is a N series we are talking abt afterall... however, looking at it's track record, even the old K40Ab and K50Ab which runs on the notoriously hot old AMD CPU and still come with a dedicated GPU are still pretty cool to fiddle with...

frankly speaking, any laptop would heat up, that's the law of physics... it's juz a matter of how hot only...
V3000 has some design flaw which makes it cannot cool down effetively, coupled with NV chipset and old AMD CPU, that's a formula for disaster... as i said, Asus has been good with their cooling even for their budget series... go ahead and get A42Jv, u won't be disappointed... |

QUOTE(verdangilte @ Jun 19 2010, 05:10 PM) sure ??? well, if u want me to say the truth, u never know how bad the cooling is for any laptop u see...i really dun hope that after i buy this laptop i will dissapointed on it thing is, u can't open up and see how's the cooling built inside the laptop... even if u can, u also can't determine if it's effective or not... so it's sort of like a gamble, especially with new models... since there's no reviews or user opinions to reference to... all i can say is, overheat or not, it's 90% user management and 10% luck.... |

QUOTE(sosot000 @ Jun 19 2010, 06:41 PM) is case of warranty and any damage services?? Asus is standard 2yrs international warranty, while Dell is standard 1yr XPS Premier with 1yr Complete Cover...izit any diff between those 2? and the conclusion is?? if any thing happen, Asus is that u need to bring the laptop to the svc center (High Point iirc), while for Dell, u juz need to call them and they will dispatch a technician to ur place and fix it on the spot... for Asus u can't extend the warranty, but for Dell, u can top up to longer (up to 3yrs) or more complete service (24x7 support)... |
