QUOTE(cowithgun @ Jan 6 2011, 06:11 PM) the 23% difference is only for 1 benchmark: Unigine Heaven 2.1. it is possible that newer driver can help solve the problem... quote from that page: The performance of the 540M lies between the Radeon HD 5650 and 5730 in our first benchmarks.i'd say both 6550 and 540M about the same... u probably wont notice much difference in gaming. give or take 1 or 2 FPS? if u still insist in choosing one, i'd pick 540M since it has 96 shader cores, compare to 72 shader cores in 335M. while, 5650 to 6550 has nothing changed internally. however, nvidia power consumption should be a little more at 35 watt compared to 6550 at 15-30 Watt for comparison HD 5650 is 15-19 Watt. Oh meaning the Ati is more battery saving huh~ Then the best bucks for 15" will be the new Acer 5750G~

Hi, is there any review for the new 3820TG-382G50 with i3-380M? Is the CPU ok? It won't throttle so easily right if just surfing web? How much battery life can be expected from the unit? TQ

How much battery life can be expected from the unit? TQ throttle? of course not... i3-380m is quite a good CPU already... won't lag even with many tabs I guess

Turn on ATI display card (High Perfomance Mode) is around 3+- hours with playing games, if turn on Intel on Board display card (Save Mode) can be stand for 6+ hours.

Wow thanks bro  3hours for gaming is really impressive, my 4741G lasts only 3 hours web surfing.

There's no definite answer for this because the trend isnl just too random.. If u can still rmb A42Jv, it was the best selling laptop at that period but price dropped rm100 each week..

ATI graphic card
4820T only 1 graphic card which Intel HD 4820TG got 2 graphic card, which is Intel HD and ATi HD5470/HD5650/HD6550...
With ATi, games perform much better...
