Phased out already, replaced with A42Jc with nVidia 310M doh.gif
Y460 at most 4 hours...
Longer than that, back to 4820TG laugh.gif
or there is Asus U35Jc/U45Jc, 6-7 hours battery life but only nVidia 310M...

Due to the HDD speed is slow....
A computer will only as fast as the slowest component, which is HDD in most case....

Better get Dell Studio XPS 16, i5 460M + ATi HD5730, FullHD@RM3702 if you want good sound system...
or Asus N53Jq, i7 740QM + nVidia GT425M@RM3999, supposedly have good speaker and also comes with the 2 years global warranty...

A42Ja is on the soft side, speaker wise..
A52Jc definitely is a no, the GPU is weak....

Hi again,

just done a small survey and research; a few models caught my attention, need sifus suggestion/recommendation

1. Acer 5742G - i5 560 - GT420 1gb - RM3099
2. Acer 5745G - i7 720 - GT330M 1gb - RM3599
3. Acer 5745G - i7 420 - GT420 2gb - RM3799

4. Asus A52JC - i5 460 - G310M 1gb - RM2599 (plan to upgrade from 2gb to 4gb DDR3)
5. Asus A42JA - i7 740 - Ati 5730 2gb - RM3599 (tempting but only 14" screen - prefer to have 15" screen) 

how bout warranty issues? i will be traveling a lot (Malaysia-Dubai-Africa) for the next 2 years. heard Acer only covers 1 year traveller warranty and Asus covers 2 years international warranty.

any recommendation among the listed?
a. budget plus minus 3.5k
b. for gaming n movie
c. mobility not an issue
d. good sound system

thanks in advance

err.. how slow was it? i've tried on inspiron 1420 (t5550 1.8Gzh/intel gma) and it's not so slow, does the LH520 slower than dat?

From Passmark CPU benchmark, AMD P320 score higher than C2D T5550....

QUOTE(badbuddyz @ Oct 12 2010, 01:56 PM)
will look into it, i remembered that in one of the thread, upgrading the GPU for XPS, or this is the latest one?

Need to upgrade GPU...
Soon will be replaced by new model, though. Hence the cheap price for now...

Yes.....
There's no definite thing in buying notebook or electronic stuff, it can just straight broken after you just take it out from the box, or it break after couple years, no one can guarantee....

^Fujitsu LH530, i3 330M + GMA HD@RM1999

QUOTE(HanJin95 @ Oct 12 2010, 08:55 PM)
1. any except dell
2. 4k max
3. preferred i7, 4gb ram, Long battery life
4. 15 inch
*
You won't get 15'' with i7 with long battery life...
better revise the requirement...

15'' with long battery life currently is Acer 5820TG, but need to import from Singapore, priced around SGD 1.4K...

okay, i will stick to the Fujitsu LH520.

how much is it?

please tell me the spec also, cause i checked in their website, there is 2 spec available
*
AMD P320 + ATi HD5430, 2GB, 320GB@RM1499...

QUOTE(HanJin95 @ Oct 12 2010, 09:15 PM)
ohh.. biggest i can go is 16 inch. any other choices?

Do you need dedicated GPU?
15''-16'' now mostly consist of i7 Quad and dedicated GPU which would run down the battery life roughly around 2 hours...
e.g.
Asus N53Jq, i7 740QM + nVidia GT425M@RM3999
Acer 5745G, i7 740QM + nVidia GT420M@RM3799
Acer 5742G, i5 560M + nVidia GT420M@RM2999
Toshiba Qosmio F60-S531, i3 350M + Nvidia GT330M@RM3199

except business grade notebook that has 15'' with i5 and GMA HD to preserve battery life, but that mostly is Dell that fit your budget...
