Hello. I'm a college student on a budget. I need a notebook only for word processing, internet browsing and movie viewing. I prefer a larger screen, 12" or more? And Win7.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

state ur budget please

1. Brand: Any brand will do
2. Budget: Below 2k
3. Specs: Is for study purpose, not gaming
4. Size: Any size will do, but with 2k budget i don't think can get a gigantic size laptop.

Aspire 4750-2412G50

i‎5‎-‎2410/2GB/500GB/IntelHD/Win7HP @ RM1999

Any other model recommend within my budget?

Toshiba Satellite L745-1050X, i3-2310 + Nvidia GT525M@RM2299, 2 years warranty (1st year global)
Toshiba Satellite L645-1163X, i3-380M + ATI HD5650@RM1999
Toshiba Satellite L645-1169XB/1170XR/1171XW, i5-480M + ATI HD5650@RM2299, Colors: Brown/Red/White

Battery life should be around 3 hours max... if want better battery life, need to up budget to RM2499, then get the poisonous Acer TimelineX 4830Tg

btw the 3 model stated above, which graphic card is better in term of performance?

Nvidia GT525M = ATi HD5650 > Nvidia GT520M
But do take note that the i3-380/ATI HD5650 are old CPU/GPU

Better get new tech as in SB processors as they have better power consumption hence longer battery life around 4hours..

sorry..hmm less thn 1.5 k?

owh. so is either L745 or L645 now. hmm.
and is acer quality build good enuf? heard alot of bad remark bout acer products from my friend.

Asus K43U, AMD E-350 + AMD HD6310@RM1199, FreeDOS
But it has no OS

Acer Ethos> Acer Travelmates> Acer TimelineX > Acer Aspire...
TimelineX and above are quite good now
As for Aspires, be sure to get the warranty for peace of mind (most models already come with 3 years warranty, so its good)

happy evening. my budget for a laptop is rm2.6, i dont play games.

im eye-ing either asus n43sl or asus 43sv. which is better in your opinion?

however im open to other recommendations as well.

If you're not playing games, no need to get a laptop with such a good GPU?
Maybe can go for the cheapest quad core? Lenovo V470 @rm2.6-2.7k with i7-2630QM

hi, perhaps should include the alienware 14" model in the list as well

Acer Aspire 4750-2312G50 Intel Core i3-2310M/2GB/500GB/Intel HD/14"/Linux@RM1549
Lenovo G470 Intel Core i3-2310M/2GB/640GB/Intel HD/14"/Dos@RM1599
HP 430 Intel Core i3-2310M/2GB/500GB/Intel HD/14"/FreeDos@RM1599

Its already there?

Hi, Is the Asus N43SL out already?

hi guys, can you help reckon a good laptop for daily usage & doesnt not required gaming.

User: Female
Purchase period : From April to Oct 2011

1. Brand. = Asus, Dell
2. Budget = 2.1 to 2.5k
3. Specs. = i3/i5 new CPU series with AMD ATI(will accept Nvidia but prefer reject Intel GMA HD) GPU, 4gb ram and good battery.
4. Size. = 14" 15"
5. Lifespan: 3 years max.


i have not come up with model, hope you guys can reckon some good one

A bit contradicting since you said not required gaming but reject Intel GPU?
