bros, I'm going tmrw to PC fair.
Most probably getting the N53Sv.
But I saw someone said it was 3.2k ?
I thought it was around rm2599 ? o.o
confused now.
Or for that price(rm2599), is there any other models to suggest ?
maybe 15 inch, will use for gaming but not those aiming for high end specs.
thanks.

The RM3.2k one is N53Sn (i7-2630QM + GT550m)
The N53Sv is probably the best 15 incher for that price  thumbup.gif

hmm thanks then !
N53Sv is not a bad laptop right ? =)

It depends on your usage.. if you're into gaming, getting a laptop with a powerful SB processor but with crappy integrated GPUs e.g. Lenovo V470, will be disastrous...
For your references, those with i3-2xxxx; i5-2xxxx and i7-2xxxx are SB processors, you can refer here for more details: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1809427

n53sv using Sb processor ?

bro's if there's a later upgrade of the N53SN i7 one, please update here yeah. tongue.gif
since if there's a new one coming out in 3 weeks, i might opt for that one instead of N53SN. hehe

Yup HP-dv6...
You can get it with BEATS SOLO HEADSET for rm3699 or without it for rm3199 from Marcus20125..
It's the best bargain nowadays.. Go check out reviews from users in the dedicated thread..
*
ouch, the solo headset so exp.
anyways, the the Graphic card compared to the NV 550GT alot of difference ?
and N52SV comes together with usb 3.0, HP-dv6 doesn't come with a usb 3.0 yeah ?
oh 1 more thing, I heard HP-dv6 has heating problem ? is it true ? sad.gif

Dv6 few generations before did have heat problems.. But the recent models is quite normal according to users in the forum..
Yea the only downside is no USB3.0, but if you're in for gaming the HD6770 is much stronger than 550M..
The headphones worth around rm899, if you want, you can try to buy the rm3699 one and sell the headphone for rm700..

because i have made a booking for this lappie N53SN. they say it will take 3 weeks, so probably by 8th of May only can go collect.
but according to the bro above, he says Asus might not restock N53SN.
Sigh, should I call and cancel my booking and take back my deposit and go for the dv6-4003TX ? or should I wait for 3 weeks ?
Dilemma rclxub.gif

really quite confusing... haiz.. so now i also dono hav to believe who.. >< i afraid i cant wait for the stock.. argh...

Dv6 2x 3.0?? I saw the same thing.. but after see the exact model.. i cant find the info already.. =.=
*
yep, i went to pc fair last day. they say N53SN no stock d.
so pay rm100 deposit wait for 3 weeks.
now if 3 weeks time no more stock, i wanna take back my deposit and get the dv6-4003TX.
I mean, just the warranty only problem.
If it is international warranty then its fine.

Oh i'm sorry.
I'm not very clear with HP models.
Which model comes with the i7 ?
I specs similar to N53SV just the graphic card difference only ?
Thanks smile.gif
