Pretty much that, for models with Quad core, since Acer 5750G is out,
Lenovo Y560p is RM2999 and other Asus within budget is dual core..

RRP RM2799...
It has better build, speaker, GPU, but no USB 3.0 if that's important for you and its only i5 2410M.

For example like, watching movie, gaming....hehe thanks

Yup.
In gaming, alot of performance drop in FullHD laugh.gif
assuming same GPU with HD screen.

How does this fare compared to Dell Inspiron 14R,HP Pavilion g4-1000 and Acer Aspire 4738G-382G50?

Which spec Inspiron 14R?
Your usage ?

Hi guys..I need some recommendations on a laptop..mostly for surfing, work, light gaming. Also looking for a sandy bridge. Budget around 2k-2.5k..any ideas?
*
15'' can look at Asus A53Sv, Dell Inspiron 15R.
14'' can look at Dell Inspiron 14R, Acer 4820TG,
13'' can look at Acer 3820TG.

QUOTE(ss1st @ Mar 20 2011, 08:10 PM)
Need recommendation:

1. Brand = any
2. Budget = 2k or below
3. Specs = i5, 4GB RAM, dedicated GC
4. Size = 14" with minimum 1440x900 resolution
5. mainly for web surfing, Excel (hence the need of higher screen resolution), occasionally Photoshop, no 3D games, movies...

Thanks in advance smile.gif

Most likely need to look for refurb Dell Latitude E6400/E6410...

QUOTE(ballsofsteel @ Mar 20 2011, 10:13 PM)
Whats the best SB laptop with a 15 INCH Full HD, with Optimus/ Switchable Graphics technology?

I dont care if its ATI or Nvidia.

I need at least 3 hours of WIFI ON / Word / Browsing usage. and Powerful gaming on the go.
*
XPS 15 or Sager NP5160. GT540/GT550M pretty much the limit for Optimus notebook for now...
Unless you go with 17'' AlienWare M17x R3 with the ATi HD6870M, it got switchable GPU, not sure the HD6970M version got switchable or not...

I'm thinking of getting a new 15" laptop... now what i can think is XPS15...
Normally i use my laptop to do assignment with A LOT of website opening, a lot of folders and ms slides/words opening, and normally i will use to edit and store large format photo. I need a lap top that can smoothly multitask and edit photo without lag. Do you guys think dell XPS15 can do that?
FYI, I don't game lol
*
Can do, upgrade more memory..
There's also Acer 5750G, Dell Inspiron 15R, Asus N53Sv/N53Sn, Lenovo Y560p...

Been observing Dell Latitude E6400/E6410 for quite some times, but I have doubts:
1. I used 2 Dell laptops before, including the 1 I'm using now, overheating problem is very serious in my opinion,
2. Where can I find those refurbished Dell?

Sorry but I forgot to mention on the earlier post:
6. I like to open a LOT of folders/applications at once, so is 4GB RAM enough?

cheerio~
*
Garage Sales?
Depends on how is a LOT ? 4GB is enough for most user...

QUOTE(sweeann @ Mar 21 2011, 11:24 PM)
For the DELL XPS 15 MLK:

So means if I am playing games, I should lower the resolution for smooth game play?

And with other multimedia stuff, it should not have any problem with the GPU?
*
Yes or either lower setting in native resolutions.
As for other, no problem.

Hi, I need some recommendations on laptops. Here's the details:

1. Brand: Any

2. Budget: RM5,000

3. Specs: Any

4. Size: Light

5. Purpose: Studies

Thanks!

P.S Is a Mac necessary for Pre-U studies? My friend told me that using Mac for Pre-U/University is not good because when you're needed to give a presentation, it will be harder to connect to the screen if compared to using Windows. Is this true?
*
Well, MacBook/MacBook Pro don't have VGA port built-in, you need to buy the converter and bring it to every presentation...

QUOTE(Watta?? @ Mar 23 2011, 10:00 PM)
1. Brand: any, but preferably more reliable for use more than 3yrs
2. Budget: around 4k
3. Specs: i7, battery life more than 6hr, decent graphic card for gaming, volume/play pause button control, decent speakers for movies, 4gb ram and 500gb harddisk
4. Size: 16" or 17" screen, i wont mind if its larger

would i also be able to get 1080p full HD for this price?
*
Closest is Dell XPS 15 with 9-cell and upgrade to 1080p screen?

Oh ok sorry. Here's something more detailed:

1. Brand: Preferably Apple, but I guess anything goes.

2. Budget: RM5,000

3. Specs: Any

4. Size: 13.0" to 16.0"

5. Purpose: Pre-University Science subject studies - probably creating documents, presentations, etc.

So it really IS much harder and more illogical to use Macs when studying. I guess I should forget about Macs then lol.

13'' to 16'' is pretty much any notebook nowadays laugh.gif
and that task even 1.5K notebook is enough...

Toshiba Satellite A660? Should be Satellite A665 (i7-740QM+ GT330M@~RM3.2k)
Generally ATI 6550 (4820TG)> ATI5650 (Inspiron 15R)>GT330M (A665)..
But the difference between 6550 and 5650 is not very big  nod.gif
ok last question.does 4820tg comes in 15.6" ?
*
That would be 5820TG, which is not available in Malaysia.
