Acer 4820TG with i7-640 / Radeon 6550 / 128GB SSD

http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Acer-A...ok.44096.0.html

A shop at Digital Mall offered me 8 freebies - the standard fare: wireless mouse, keyboard cover, etc. Instead of these items, I got him to give me another 2GB ram - not bad, Corsair some more.

im thinking about getting an acer 4820tg soon.ill b doing some gaming and engineering software.is it any good?

yes.. still the best bang for the buck even after SB came out..

make sure u get the i5-480M + HD6550 version.. Someone stated that you can get for RM2370 in digital mall? Upgrade ram to 4gb and you're good to go..

If you need a bigger screen and even better performances, go for 5750G with Sandy Bridge quadcore processor and more powerful GPU.. It sells around RM27xx...

I just bought mine, 4820T i5-460m.
It's still in the box.
Any advice on my unboxing and 1st start up ?

HD6550 = HD5650+ 50MHz..

The ram is on the middle...
2GB now should be around RM70..

^thnks

Do update us when you done purchasing from him!
p/s : I'm also a wanna be 4820TG user~ Seeking which shop to buy~


Where's it? XD

Digital Mall entrance, first shop on the right. Next to the Tang Chow kopitiam.

3820tg using 1066mhz or 1333mhz ddr3??
which should i buy?

3820TG with i5 480 available in malaysia??
Coz Singapore got this 3820tg with i5 480 specs.

1066MHz is enough
Only i3 380M version..

Is the 3820TG and 4820TG still worth it since SandyBridge is now out ?

Yup, unless you can find those SandyBridge under RM2.5K...

Yes, only for a short term.
It is still a good deal in January & February 2011.

Current SB i7 is priced at RM2900.
You can expect SB i5 with the price tag of RM2500 then.

I reckon you'll see brand new i7-2620 & i5-2540 in March.
Look at the core speed, it's going to wipe out all current i3/i5.

So, the crucial question is, can you wait?
