i7 is way powerful than the i5 due to it being a quad core... but whether you need it or not depends on the programs you use...
If normal office tasks, there's no real need for the extra power...
And do take note that with the i7, you'll need to compromise abit with the higher heat as well as shorter battery life  nod.gif

oic, thanks for the review..but seen like i5 and i7 just different about RM250+
so why not to grab a powerful i7 as well.
another thing, any different for gaming between i5 and i7 with the same graphic card GT540M?

CPU difference will have little (RTS), or no effect on gaming performance (FPS)  nod.gif Of course, performance difference may vary from game to game...
Well, why not pay less RM250 and get more battery life and less heat?  laugh.gif
So its down to what you prefer, if you are often mobile, its best to just get i5, i7 is simply overkill if you're not going to use it

yaya..you got the point too..
but normally use at home, so battery life is not a method for me..
if not so big different, i5 is enough for gaming and so on.. rclxms.gif

If you're only using it for gaming, i5 would be enough...
Unless you're using some processor-intensive programs, there's noneed for i7  laugh.gif
Also, you might want to reduce the heat if you're into gaming, another no for i7

haha..okok..say no to i7 then.. tongue.gif
btw, what do mean by processor-intensive programs? any example?

He probably know better than us  nod.gif Still, not released doesn't mean no more stock hehe
Well, the thing is there's not much, if any performance differences between the 1GB and 2GB GT540M GPU  nod.gif
So its down to the difference in battery capacity now

Nvidia GT540M is way better than AMD HD 6470  nod.gif

I dunno what Asus Malaysia is doing  vmad.gif
I've waited until gave up already haha  cry.gif
Yeap, apparently the JBL speakers in Dell are much better than that of Asus...
Personally I think the harman/kardons in Toshibas are also better than the B&Os  hmm.gif
Have you tried out harman/kardons bro?  rclxms.gif

Huh?The only different between 1GB and 2GB is the battery capacity?
