LOL if you really believe Ideapad looks better than XPS then that is One good reason to buy an Ideapad I guess.

Layout of RAM should be either 4x2 or 2x4 or 2x2 + 1x4.

I heard XPS 17 has 4 slots, so not sure about XPS 15.

new XPS 15:

memory: this is system is using Intel HM57 Express Chipset, so is DD3. for more detail about memory/channel, google it, it's standard.
resolution: beside 1366x768, there is 1920x1080 offer too soon, no worried. just like previous Studio, Studio XPS.

LOL i thought the Full HD version of XPS15 is being available since the 1st day it come to Malaysia? sweat.gif
http://configure.ap.dell.com/dellstore/con...s=dhs&cs=mydhs1
It is in the configuration option at just RM411(which is cheaper than upgrading XPS16 to 16'' B+RGLED)

If i have to buy XPS 15 i will upgrade the screen to Full HD first then only consider other part. 720P on 15.6'' is just. doh.gif

depends on who using....

if say it's my old man who will be the one using, of course 720p...

Of course B+RGLED is cheaper it's not the same as RGBLED smile.gif

But only 1600x900 on XPS 17 (though not available here) and only Optimus with GT 420M. Still waiting for Dell to change their options.

The average 15 inch laptop does not have a numpad. It's not a flaw. Only some like Sager/Asus/MSI/Toshiba have it on <16 inch laptops, but they weight a heap too.

Dell is one of the few who doesn't have it...

and Fermi architecture... which is suppose to be better in GPGPU...

i am starting to wonder if improvements in the 400M family can only be seen in GPGPU but not gaming...

It depends, some people prefer to have num pad.

It's great for keying in lots of numbers in Excel.

Does anyone know if the Dell XPS uses DDR3 or GDDR3 memory?

The specs says DDR3 on Dell's website, but Dell is not sure themselves.

RGBLED is better
B+RGLED is WLED with better colour gamut, but still lower than RGBLED...
