You don't have to tell me the obvious. I still put it on a cooler pad but still with the speaker pointing downward it reflect nearly no sound at all

My bad for assuming ure not using a cooler pad..

Nah its OK. I guess there is compromise, there isn't a perfect laptop in the first place. I just need to select which compromise I should have

Agreed, nothing is perfect hehe
I guess you've already considered/rejected the idea of using external speakers?
Toshiba's C640 models are non-glossy iinm, but battery life is nothing to shout about

Mind asking y is ur A42Je in RMA process?
What's wrong with it?

Its bloody inconvenient, because I don't put it on table top or someplace solid, it usually on my lap or on my bed. I just need a good speakers, like the Acer I mentioned, their speaker sounds very good to me, there is a hint of bass to it as well, and there is none on ASUS so-called Altec speakers.

Toshiba C640 looks plasticky and horrid, feels terrible as well, big no for me

In my particular laptop for some unknown reason it won't go to 2D speed when in Maximum Performance mode, emailing ASUS technical service end up bickering and finger pointing at me instead of just fixing the damn BIOS

Apart from that there's nothing wrong with it. My friend bought the same laptop as me, roughly on the same date and still working fine till this day. I haven't checked whether it exhibit same behavior or not. But I will sell this laptop once I get it. No longer interest to do heavy gaming anymore

1. Brand. Any ~ perhaps the Asus or Acer that can use up to 8 hour
2. Budget. 2.4 - 2.5k , accept other model price range higher also. wanna compare
4. Size. 14inch

wanna find those light and think with long battery life.

currently i looking the Asus UL or the Acer Travelmate series or the same range.

i saw many of the proc and it include gc also.
but wat is the advantage of these laptop ? any different with the normal 14inch 2.5k laptop ?

any of these laptop spec quite similar or higher than Asus A42J series ?

thx

Hey sifu-sifu! Suggest me a laptop can?

-ASUS N53SN-SX043V
-HP ENVY 14' Beats Edition
-Apple MacBook Pro 13' 2.4Ghz

Which one have the best performance on gaming and multimedia?
Help me please!
My budget can afford either one in the list.

Hey guys, need some recommendation on a laptop with Rm 2k+- budget. Preferably a 13.3 or 14" light laptop without graphics card and long battery life and dvd drive.. Budget includes windows 7 too. And one more thing, no Lenovo Z460 because my bro got one last month. This laptop is for my mum by the way. Is it possible to get these configuration ? I had Dell inspiron 14r in mind but i heard that the hard disk and other vital components are hard to access so i would actually cross that out. Thanks

if u are planning for gaming you can exclude Apple Macbook

actually if you're leaning towards multimedia more, the mbp 13 is a better choice... nicer screen.
and cheaper than the ENVY beats edition. performance asus wins, and also, if you're not gonna do steam gaming... then using mac for gaming is kinda wonky.

imo, i would go for the macbook pro 13 if you're not into gaming so much (like dun play black ops, dun play mass effect, dragon age) cause the screen on the mbp 13 is absolutely gorgeous. and the size is pretty nice. Only downside is the design is horrible.

I would stay away from the HP envy unless you really want to showoff... i mean, macbooks aren't impressive anymore.
and the Asus? Nah... cause you might as well get a good gaming notebook if your budget so high. So i say go for MBP 13, unless you can't use OSX.... its shit hard for me to use =\

Hey! any pros can give me a comparision between HP Pavilion DV6-4003TX and Asus N53SN? does any of it has overheating problems?

No overheating problems but dv6 is slightly hotter than N53SN because of it's thinner profile

quite heavy gaming, multitasking , some programing , fast processor
budget around 2.5k
Avoid Toshiba

Have been look into Asus A42JP-VX098V , Dell XPS15

is it HD6570 a strong gc ? does 2gb realy big different from other 1gb gc ? course very less 2gb gc inside my budget range and the new SB processor would be out on march rite ? should i wait for it ?

i hate having many finger print on my lappy so avoid glossy cover and keyboard

is that glossy screen will reflect light like mirror and non glossy screen wont ?

and last question is, is both Asus A42JP-VX098V , Dell XPS15 meet the condition i want ? course only surf on the net so far

sry for so many question

A42JP is ur best choice if you want the best GPU for the price range...

Slightly below is 4820TG iwth HD6550, but beats A42JP with its battery life...

1gb n 2gb no differences....

How about the cover, keyboard and screen of A42JP, it is glossy or none glossy ?
does the processor come with SB ?

Keyboard no,
Not SandyBridge...

For screen, almost all consumer notebook now is glossy...
