Grats on new thread!
Will send you the updated pricelist once its done TS

Tanx bro..Im currently bz now..sori for the un-updated price list..

Asus A42jp a good buy ?? Compare this with Toshiba L625 1170XR , which better ??

Its okay, you can rely on me haha, I'm half-way through preparing liao

gratz...woots sandy bridge lappy

As mentioned earlier, it won't be easy to find the A42Jp since its EOLed...
Spec wise (GPU) Asus is better, but quality-wise the L645 will be better... The L645 has better speakers as well

4K BUDGET!

n53sn or sager np 8130?

pros and cons in comparing these two.


SAGER:
Performs better
Cheaper price per performance.

Hassle claiming warranty.
No retailer in malaysia.
Weak battery life.
Ugly

Asus N53SN.
Cheaper compared to sager.
Looks alot nicer
Nice speakers.
Retailers and distris in malaysia.

GT550M is weaker than GTX460 [ is it alot ? ]

thats my main concern...should i buy sager over asus cause it have good GPU?

really big difference?

You still have 4 months before purchase, come back later?
Choosing now won't affect your final decision anyway
Anyway, GTX460 is very powerful, you don't often find them that affordable...
You need to consider warranty support for Sager as well..

people should have been flocking to get those now

@ivan92
Vostros... screen is smaller.
Vostro V130 is with only internal graphics with is quite unusable for your usage...
Vostro 3300 has NVIDIA 310M which is quite okay...
I would go for Acer 4253 Cheap 14 inch and a real graphic card integrated in the CPU and with better battery life too

This post has been edited by Koki: Mar 15 2011, 02:14 PM

The Acer 4253, can the battery lasts how long, anyone knows?

Estimated to be around 4.5 hours

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 02:14 PM

+1 due to the larger screen

in dilemma lerr.

choosing a i5 MacBook or a i7 Dell XPS / Asus N52sv lerr.

Price are about the same, right? Around rm3.5-4k. ><''

I see lots professional photographers using Macbook. Knew Macbook having better functions, performance and screen.

Felt like buying Mac also. But scared to venture to it, cause i got no knowledge bout Mac at all. and im not quite sure about h*cked / P*rated softwares availability or not ler.

Any advice?

Afaik, Macs offers some of the best PCs for designing
I guess it all boils down to whether you want to game or not? If not then just go for the Mac?
You'll never know until you try~
No comments on pirated software though, its a taboo here

Dear all guruss, Can i ask lenovo z460 i5 izzit capable for watch HD movies? Mainly is for office work. but sometimes might play football manager.. It is cheap and within my budget.. (<2k)

Definitely can, the variants with G310M would be better though

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 02:54 PM

Thanks for reply.
Does Lenovo has good warranty service? No experience with Lenovo. If compare to HPG42-456TX. Which 1 more worth it ar? coz my friend told me warranty is very important.. Does Lenovo also has extended warranty?
Sorry so many questions..

---

Added on March 15, 2011, 3:00 pmWrong info, not HPG42-456TX, is HP G42-465TU

This post has been edited by wongek: Mar 15 2011, 03:00 PM

Not sure about warranty support, but you can extend the warranty for up to 3 years
Iirc, there's a (2 years warranty extension) promotion for the Z460 at the moment...

Personally I'm not very impressed with the price, built and design of the recent HP G series... but that's just me

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 03:03 PM

Just noticed the 13" MacBook doesnt have graphic card!

Or...im seeing wrongly?

Can you share any link for the promotion for Z460? Many Thanks..

The new MacBook Pro 13 comes with Intel HD 3000 which is more or less on par with that of ATI5470
Do you really need a powerful GPU for your work?
Iinm editing depends more on processing power? Unless its 3D stuffs you're working on

---

Added on March 15, 2011, 3:13 pmI'm not very sure haha
You need to refer to the latest brochure from Lenovo...
Or perhaps some sifu can enlighten us?

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 03:28 PM

go for n53sv , very quite good looking..... abit regret buy acer 5750

Acer 5750 specs/price was really good. Was tempted with 5750 spec/price when it launch... but after try it, don't like the touch & feel... so decide to wait for N53SN.

Why? 5750 is thin, and IMO better than ASUS offering and cheaper too. Don't be blinded by the things we don't own, instead enjoy the thing we have

Hi

need suggestion and recommendations for a laptop.

brand - doesnt matter but prefer those that are reliable and less problem
budget - 2k
spec - aiseh not good in spec. but mainly for web browsing. no need cd/dvd rom. maybe minor photo editing like import/export, crop. not major ones. prefer fast boot/opening programs.
size - prefer 15in but open to suggestion as well.

thanks

edit - forgot. plus a reasonable hard disk capacity.

This post has been edited by jaaroquai: Mar 15 2011, 03:42 PM

The new Inspiron 15R (i3-2310M + Intel HD3000@~RM2k) would be a good choice...
Do refer to Dell Malaysia for more details....
There's even one Inspiron 15 priced at RM1.3k only (source:http://www.dell.com/my/p/inspiron-15-intel-n5010/pd), probably typo I think LOL

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 03:53 PM

thanks. will check it out. lol.....

wohooo... ya lah. 1.3k.

any difference with the one you mentioned? pro and cons? between the 2 products you stated.

This post has been edited by jaaroquai: Mar 15 2011, 03:56 PM

I thought i would wanna play games like CODMW2 when i get my new lappie.

Talking bout multimedia editting, my usage is process photo, photoshop. and may be full hd movie editting in the future?

Then perhaps it would be better to get something more powerful?
Dell XPS 15, Dell Studio XPS 16 are worth looking into... or perhaps Vaios?

I don't think the MacBook Pro 13 inch could handle with new Intel HD 3000
I would suggest to take the 15 inch though, it's all powerful and the price is powerful too.
ASUS or Dell
And there is hackintosh (if you would want to venture into it)
For the price of Macs, you're paying for the brand, the quality and the OS in a very expensive way

Oh, and there's bootcamp if you want to use Windows on a Mac to play games.
Recently removed support for Vista, only 7 for now

This post has been edited by Koki: Mar 15 2011, 04:04 PM

sorry, what about notebook... any recommendations. or is it better to stick to laptop?

Laptop is generally known for both notebooks and netbooks

This post has been edited by Koki: Mar 15 2011, 04:04 PM

hahahah, aiseh my water face drop la

ok. last question, the difference between the 2 stated recommendations. for now, im more towards the 1.3k one

----

edit

ok got it. thanks guys. sorry for my noobness. now have to sorok my face a bit hahaah...

This post has been edited by jaaroquai: Mar 15 2011, 04:08 PM

This one Inspiron 15R (i3-2310M + Intel HD3000@~RM2k) has better CPU and GPU
Its newer technology, so its best to pick this 1 instead
If you don't mind the specs, you can also go for the RM1.3k one (if it exists), and use the remaining money to extend the warranty

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 04:09 PM

right. thanks a bunch guys....

N53SN is being sell for rm3340 by hikari85.

this laptop wont go wrong right?

feeling like wanna buy it over the sager n8130 due to warranty issues.

Yea, hikari85 selling N53SN already. RM3499 with freebies. RM3340 only free bag. Worth it? Or should I went down to lowyat plaza for a better deal?

getting it without freebies will be better

yea...seriously i dont like the keyboard at all...

erm.... yeah i buy it becos it is cheap and come with i7.... but now i was thinking "is it i need to use up i7?" LOL

I did look at the New XPS 15 also.

I customize to:
new i7 SB
8Gb Ram
Full HD 1980x1280 resolution
Backlit keyboard
9 cell batt.
then ended up around rm4.5k already.

btw, just wanna check, if my lappie got Full HD display, means it shouldnt lag when i play 1080 recorded video right? Or the normal HD ones also can smoothly?

Hi, I'm currently looking for a laptop so that I can bring it with me to travel or just hanging out.

1. Brand: Preferably Dell or Asus or Toshiba or if you have any other brands to recommend then you can just tell me.

2. Budget: My budget is hopefully somewhere less than 2k.

3. Specs: Whats most important in my specs is Intel proc, at least 2GB ram, and 500GB HDD.

4. Size: Preferably 12-13" cause I want it to be lightweight if I were to bring it to travel.

Thanks in advance.

guys is it N53SV has usb 3.0 or not???
coz just now i went to lowyat and the shop says the N53SV dont have 3.0 usb...
is it true?

I'm looking for a notebook for college studying, it can last up to 10 hours cause i lazy to bring along charges (my bag too heavy with books) . i found asus u41jf which is portable & power saving with rm27++. pls recommend any other brand/model or pls comment opinion for owner of u41jf. tq.

1. Brand: pls recommend
2. Budget: less than rm2800
3. Specs: intel i5
4. Size: 14", good for CAD
no play pc games (facebook game maybe), just online, CAD, excel/words/powerpoint.

continue at here since the v9 closed liao

anybody know how much is the fee for warranty extension for thinkpad laptop?
by default 1 year warranty is provided by lenovo for thinkpad laptop, am i right?
the thinkpad edge 13 is using i3 or C2D?
because i found some review said that it's using C2D but the one that i saw is i3
or just the 14 is using i3?
so any comment on this laptop is good or bad?
i assume it's good since it's a thinkpad

i like the feels thinkpad gives me because it's way solid than my laptop
regret for not get a thinkpad

This post has been edited by ivan92: Mar 15 2011, 06:32 PM

Definitely won't lag
Its a powerful lappy o... Even way cheaper models can handle the load...
Personally I think you should decrease the specs and spend some money on the warranty...

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 06:29 PM

1. Brand.
Any Brand but with quality.

2. Budget.
Around RM3500.

3. Specs.
Hope can get second generation i7.

4. Size.
dont too heavy, need bring to school everyday.

Thank You for all of u help me~

13 inch Toshiba Portege T230 (U5400 + Intel HD@~RM1.8k) seems to fit the description... Its light and offers decent battery life
Or if you prefer more processing power and less battery life and higher weight, then can consider Dell Inspirons 13R...

Asus 1215b would be good as well for daily computing but it runs on AMD

---

Added on March 15, 2011, 6:42 pmI doubt the U41Jf can hit the 10 hours battery mark haha
Anyway, other alternatives include Asus U36Jc (i5-480M + G310M@RM3k; 13 inch, 1.7kg), Acer 3820TG/4820TG (i5-480M + ATI 6550@RM2.2k-2.4k), Lenovo V470 (i7-2630QM + Intel HD graphics 3000@RM2699)... its either more processing power, or longer battery lives... Do take note that these laptop won't last 10 hours as well since they're 13/14 inchers...

Added on March 15, 2011, 6:43 pmAny gaming? Preferred size?

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 06:43 PM

i have a shell shocker for you dell launched new inspiron 14r
at rm 2349 online price you can get a i5 2410m+ radeon 6630m (480sps+gddr3)

now gt 540m/gt 550m they are on par or have the same caliber of radeon 5650/5730/6550/6570 gddr3

so graphic wise 6630 will beat gt 550m or will be equal to it so xps 15 have weaker gc than inspiron 14r btw 6630m is heavily downclocked @485 mhz you guys can easily oc to 600mhz~650 mhz.

also i want to some recommend about 13 inch light laptops within 2k with mid graphics like 6550 in it

only model i see is acer 3820tg with i3 380m+6550 is there any other brands? like this spec from asus/hp/dell/toshiba/msi/lenovo etc?

i really prefer a i5+6550 with a 13 inch.

ThinkPad Edge 13 doesnt come with Intel Core i3 or Core i5 model

ThinkPad Edge 14(0578K6A) Intel Core i3-380M/2GB/320GB/14"/Intel HD/W7P@RM2599
ThinkPad Edge 14(0578Q7A) Intel Core i5-480M/2GB/500GB/14"/Intel HD/W7P@RM2799

extend warranty from 1 year carry-in to 3 years carry-in will be RM580

This post has been edited by marcus20125: Mar 15 2011, 06:52 PM

Dell has good after sales services.
Might want to try Dell XPS L401X - 74452G (RRP RM3,399), will be a bit flashy tho
1.73GHZ Intel Core i7 Q740M
4GB DDR3 1333 MHz Memory
500GB 7200-rpm hard drive
Nvidia GeForce GT425 - 2GB

Which one? LOL. xD

So dayum expensive laaaa their warranty.

Yup, there are new models from Dell:
14 inch Dell Inspiron 14R (i5-2410M+AMD HD 6630@~RM2.4k)
15 inch Dell Inspiron 15R (i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT525@RM2.7k)
and a lot of SB Latitude laptops
The AMD HD 6630 should be around the same level as ATI 6550? Need to wait for benchmarks...

13 inch with i5 + 6550? Acer 3820TG only as you've mentioned haha
Perhaps you should wait for the new Acer 3830?
Nothing comparable from other brands at the moment I think

Total war series , COD and SCII
14" or 15"
battery life as long as possible~
Thank you~

They're expensive for a reason haha
Which one to choose depends on your requirements and budget?

Added on March 15, 2011, 6:54 pmN53SN (i7-2630QM + GT550M@RM3499)
N53SV (i5-2410M + GT540@RM2799)
Acer 5750G (i7-2630QM + GT540M@~RM2.8k)
HP Dv6 (i7-2630QM + ATI 5670@~RM3.2k)
Lenovo Y560P (i7-2630QM + ATI5670@~RM3k)
Dell XPS 15 (i5-2410M+ GT540@~RM3.3k)
Dell XPS 15 (i7-2630QM + GT540M@~RM3.7k)

Virtually no gaming 14 inch in the market at the moment haha... do take note that the ones above are 15 inchers, they will be heavy
Not sure which one has the longest battery life though, battery life generally would be around 3-4 hours+ if the laptop supports GPU switching...

This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Mar 15 2011, 06:54 PM

I posted you a reply on page 2
I guess you can go for ThinkPad X120e, for your usage I'm still thinking the E-350 processor will handle very well

Guys is Lenovo Y560P good?

Without GPU switching, its not as good as its rivals in terms of battery life...

Are the new Dell Inspiron 15R out?

who is its rival?

so asus n53sn is a better pick?

HD6570M vs GT550M

14" for gaming will announce this few weeks?
i will take note and compare for this few model
thank you for ur help~

yes

Dell Inspiron 15R Intel Core i7-2630QM/4GB RAM/500GB/15.6"/Geforce GT525M(1GB)/W7HP@RM2699
come with two USB 3.0

This post has been edited by marcus20125: Mar 15 2011, 07:19 PM

Any idea where can i get one?

didnt notice that
because just now i check the v9
closed

hmmm
actually not me, i got a studio xps liao
my sis is the one want to use
because i saw the red colour edge 13/14 (not sure ) with i3, 2099
quite solid
so i think quite suits her


but so far thinkpad x200 still my favourite
i always borrow my friend's x200
my friend didnt take care of it, roll all around in the car, fold it to flat during presentation(use it as a note), squeeze it into backpack full with stuffs , almost 3 years liao, still tough yo


noted
the new acer i5 already got SB?

Acer Aspire 4750G-2414G50

This post has been edited by marcus20125: Mar 15 2011, 07:31 PM

That's something new, didnt know 5750G had i5s

sorry,is Acer Aspire 4750G-2414G50 with Intel Core i5-2410M

Guys, Acer Aspire TimelineX 4820TG vs Dell Inspiron 15R vs Dell Inspiron 15 Toshiba Satellite A660
which is better in terms of gpu?

Guys , i heard that Dell Inspiron 15R new model is Core I7 Sandy Bridge with Nvidia GPU !!! Is it a good buy ??

I would say... i5 is quite a waste for your sister's usage
The AMD's E-350 is above what Intel's latest Atom can offer, yet better graphics and longer battery life. Seriously, I would say it's more or less an i3 with a dedicated graphic card.

it took almost 1 yr for msia to bring 3820tg so who knows when 3830tg will come here i am not waiting for it here also 3830tg has gt 540m

gt 540m vs 6550m is the same

i wish the new inspiron 14r specs in a light 1.8kg 13 inch inpiron 144 is bulky at 2.25 kg

Hello guys, I need a good netbook recommendation.

Mostly for doing assignment, presentation, surfing, skype, watching youtube etc.

Preferably 10inch with battery above 10 hours. Thanks!

Thanks for the intro bro but it seems that Dell Inspiron 13R comes with 320GB HDD only. But thanks tho

4820TG..
Since 15R's HD5650 is underclocked..

3820TG still rules in its world for now...
The upcoming Sony SA/SB with SandyBridge + HD6630M..

Got FullHD or not, don't have any meaning that it shouldn't lag, it depends on your spec and codec settings...
