guys here am i again...i have to clear my mind and think again...

budget around 4k.

gonna game smile.gif

any recommendation?
*
The Best wan should be the new HP dv6 IMO la.
Reresh HP DV6-6001TX, i7 2630QM + 4Gb RAM + ATi HD6770M, 1Gb GDDR5@RM3999. Dunno whether arrive or not but this laptop got great speakers from Beats audio

Next is of course the Asus N53SN-SX043V -Aluminium Silver, i7 2630QM + nVidia GT550,2GB GDDR3, 4GB@RM3499. Many forumer said speakers from Bang & Olufsen ok ok only la but what do you expect from a 3.5k budget gaming laptop. Nice design btw but the keyboard.....

Lastly the
Dell XPS 15 MLK, i7-2630M + nVidia GT540M@RM3699. It has the greatest spekars, backlit keyboard, ugliest design ever and the screen can open up to 100-110 degrees. Mostly other laptop can open till 120-130 degrees

Theres is one more though. MSI GE620, i7-2620QM, GT540M 2GB GDDR5 with 4ch Speakers, Premium Sound by THX TruStudio Pro. Just release this month but dunno when coming to Malaysia. The price should be around RM3299 as seen from somewhere.....price might change i think. Btw it has really nice looking keyboard and design

for gaming gt 550m durability will only last this year it might not even last this because try running homefront/bulletstorm upcoming  crysis2 fear 3 if it doesnt run smoothly at very high settings at 1366x768 then gt 550m fails.

Actually i think it might last for another 3 years or maybe more. Of course you can't really play at the higest settings. Some games are meant for the future like Crysis and metro 2033. If you wan play bulletstrom smoothly, off the blur. I can play it smoothly with highest settings with the HD6570M but got some area lag abit la.

So the Lenovo is a good bang for buck with this price?

FYI the y460p got no switchable graphics even though the processor has an onboard GPU. So if you dun care bout battery life i say get it

Sorry for a noob question here, between nVidia GT550M 1GB version and nVidia GT540M 2GB version, which one has higher speed and performance?
*
just incase your referring to the GT550M on the Asus N53SN, its not 1gb....its 2GB biggrin.gif
And its better than GT540M nod.gif

Sorry, I was referring to N43SN model which came with GT550M 1GB but not 2GB version, so which mean even though the GT540M has 2GB memory but it's still way weaker than the GT550M 1GB version? Or only little different?
*
Im not sure how big the gap is between GT550M and GT540M but can tell you that the max amount of memory does not make much of dif. 1GB is already sufficient as the memory only helps in the screen resolution. You might need more than 1gb if your gonna connect to 3 or more screens biggrin.gif
