Hi guys what you guys think? Which one more worth it? I think the 5742G looks like replacement for 5741G, so pricing should be same. Anyone has more info? Is the Nvidia GT420M good?

With DirectX 11 support should be ok? Comparable to HD5650? the 4741G looks affordable.

Ok, but the price 4741G what do you think? rm 2599 is it ok or not?

The only unit not refresh is the 5943G series, still i7 720QM I think.

Ouch, really Asus is better? Because of Service Centre or something else?

Right also, that case I better save up and wait a bit longer, reason I didn't pick Asus is their Service Centre abit far from my place, not sure sellers willing to RMA for me or not.

Nope, Penang here is different place, Asus is in e-gate called Asus royal Club, Acer is in Georgetown.

Built quality A42JV or this 4741G better? Previous 4741G the built is ok.

That is old info, Asus just opened their Service Centre at e-gate, that one is for Acer, Epson and other appliances, alot things they repair, thats's why people say serice not so god, too much multitasking

Notebookcheck benchmark 3dmark06 Nvidia GT420M only @5988, GT335M at least above 6000.

GT335M can play Mafia 2 or not?

Wow!! rm2600 machine can get 6817 3dmark06 , back in 2008 rm3000 can buy GeForce 9300MGS only nia lo

Yes, indeed.

Very hard to choose. GT420M or GT335M ? Both price very near.

Maybe with newer and newer drivers can overtake GT335M

Luckily I am not rushing, might wait for better and affordable laptops to come

That one is rm3399, cannot compare with this.

It is nice to have at least 2 laptops that can game in this price range A42JV and the New 4741G

Using latest driver? Got OC or not?

Wow, 7498 is higher than even notebookcheck average scored. Will it become hot around the palm rest area?

Seems that most 14' laptops have heat around palm rest area. Will it uncomfortable after some time?

That is why I worry about buying laptop, hardware failure, etc etc lolz.

Yes, cheap n good

Correct, very hard choice. Even myself dunno pick which?

Just be happy with your purchase can liao Maybe GT420M is rebadged GT425M ?

Acer pricing always amaze me

That one not release yet

But the lyn forummer who did the 3dmark06 test show the Gt420M result very close to GT335M, does it mean GT425M is even way better?

Preferences, some places might not selling Asus laptops maybe?
