it gonna be worst.

iirc, 3820/4820TG comes with dual heatsink, each for gpu/cpu.

4830TG only have single heatsink, for cpu/gpu fwir at notebookforum

Too bad 4830TG in Msia doesnt come with i7 2630QM. I know i7 is overkill but who cares

Singapore price bloody expensive ...

it should be intel HD3000 if you are using i5/7 gpu.

Anyone can run 3DMark Vantage on this unit? Curious how the temp and score

As mentioned, try this

Here's some benchmark for 4830TG's alter ego. Same spec except for i7 cpu.

Acer 4750G
CPU: i7 2630QM
RAM: 2GB DDR3 (, barely 250MB free at idle, will add another 4GB soon)
HDD: 500GB 5400RPM (will replace with SSD soon)
GPU: GT540M 1GB DDR3


Temperature
Room: 29.9C (damn hot in SG, only small mounted fan about 2M away from laptop)
CPU: 45C idle, 79C load
GPU: 42C idle, 68C load, 73C OC load
HDD: 39~40C
PSU: quite warm during stressing

Noise Emission
Idle: Silent
Load: Still silent.... lol

Vantage score: ~4160
Stock speed (Core 672Mhz, Shader 1344Mhz, Memory 900Mhz)

Vantage score: ~4812
OCed speed (Core 780Mhz, Shader 1560Mhz, Memory 1050Mhz)

For reference, GT550M stock speed is Core 740Mhz, Shader 1480Mhz, Memory 900Mhz.


Quite good for a small 14"er

Yeah, in SG. Most acer here comes with better spec BUT worst price. Luckily i got mine cheap, around RM2100 XD

Ordered a HDD caddy, will be moving 500GB to secondary caddy, put SSD into main hdd cage. Slap in 4Gb ram, gonna be awesome machine for less than RM3000 hahaha

Nope, it's default setting of 1280*1024. Clicking the red color link will bring you to pcmark website, showing all the setting/config I used

You can try to rev it up using MSI Afterburner software. The overclocked speed actually still can push higher but I afraid my puny 90W adapter cant take it. If only it come with 120W like N53SN (but huge brick)

If anyone interested with acer 4750G (core i7, GT540M), I'm thinking of letting go mine. Price below rm2700. Warranty 1 yr, start 14 April. Can be extended to 3 yrs but cost additional 450

Might sell if got offer cuz wanna get 16" laptop lol

Currently got 6GB inside but stock is 4GB.

Most shocking for me is the temperature. 42-43C at power saving mode. Damn cool, like hdd.

Updated with extra 4GB ram, making it 6GB and slight additional OC.

Acer 4750G
CPU: i7 2630QM
RAM: 6GB DDR
HDD: 500GB 5400RPM (additional Vertex 3 120GB soon )
GPU: GT540M 1GB DDR3

Temperature
Room: 28.5C
CPU: 42C idle, 79C load
GPU: 41C idle, 70C OC load


Vantage score: ~4160
Stock speed (Core 672Mhz, Shader 1344Mhz, Memory 900Mhz)

Vantage score: ~4950
OCed speed (Core 820Mhz, Shader 1640Mhz, Memory 1050Mhz)


Vantage score: ~990 (lose my link lol)
Stock speed (Core 672Mhz, Shader 1344Mhz, Memory 900Mhz)

3DMark 2011 score: ~1210
OCed speed (Core 820Mhz, Shader 1640Mhz, Memory 1050Mhz)

*Stock speed on older 266.xx driver while OCed speed is on latest 270.51.

Uh... Afaik, both same gpu, GT540M. Only varies in cpu. Unless you referring to graphic ram, 2gb is overkill.

If its true, that's suck lol

But can overclock it since it's the same core

With power saving on, 4830TG discharge rate around what numbers? 6.5W? Web browsing, minimum brightness, mute.

Mine around 11.0-14W, cant really make it lower than 11W. Maximum cpu speed already limit to 20% under power option profile. I guess i5 really make a different even at idle.

if me, i will go for acer. asus n53sv i cant really stand the flimsy keyboard

Download BatteryCare, will show detailed battery info.

In SG, 3 years extended warranty cost $199. That's nearly RM500 for same period of warranty. On site repair and international warranty requires more. So RM198 definitely worth it.

I just noticed if i put maximum load state of 15% on my cpu, the discharge rate will be around 9.7W with wifi on and lowest brightness. Battery last around 4 hours 45 mins. Quite a feat for i7 with 6 cells 48W battery (4750G). No match for 4830TG battery though
