gotta ask the sifus here..

No news on that... its been rather quiet recently, probably because of all the chaos created by them new Alienwares
Anyway, I think we can be sure that it won't be called the XPS 14 anymore... and perhaps the new model will have some influence from the Adamo XPS

hope tat the new one has nice design plus JBL speakers since current 14inch market doesn't have much choices and forces me to wait for new design notebooks..

Acer 4830Tg, Asus A43Sv (i5/i7), HP Dv4, MSI FX420, Dell Inspiron 14R... quite a lot of choices I would say haha~
I have a feeling that the XPS 14 replacement will be a very pleasant surprise, the only problem is when its going to be released

HP Dv4 and MSI FX 420 using ATI??
price?? lazy to check from the list... actually busy with work now

The HP Dv4 is the 14" with the best GPU at the moment i.e. AMD HD6750 (same as the one in the HP Dv6, abd should be on par with the GT550M in the Asus N53Sn)
Well, the MSI FX420 doesn't have the best GPU, but its the one of the cheapest SB i5-powered lappy with a dedicated GPU and 3 years warranty (only rival is Acer's 4750G)

Well, price doesn't matter if it doesn't come out
And I would say that the more expensive price is justified, the quality is good and hence worth it...
Applicable to Fujitsu and Toshiba laptops as well, used them, loved them

sifu..

between these two which one would u suggest;
- HP Pavilion G4, i5-2410M + AMD HD6470@RM2349 or Dell Inspiron 14R, i5-2410M + AMD HD6630@RM2349,

or better add some money to get the HP DV4 series..

please advise and thanks..

Between these 2, the Dell Inspiron 14R would be better because of the GPU
If not, I would choose the Acer 4830Tg or Asus A43Sv (~RM2.4-2.5k)
If you have the budget to go for the DV4, why not? Especially so if you're into gaming

support dell cos their bloatware is the most simple.. unlike asus.. but i still like asus laptop..

6470 slight better than HD3000 lah.. HD3000 got vram a not??

its also a part of market strategy if people see 1gb and 2gb.. the price almost the same so, people rela sacrafice and spend few hundreds...even if i were the buyer, i rela spend few hundreds cz the price gap not much different... XD in term of "speciality" if the GC, i oso not sure maybe gt heavy game use GC higher than 1gb.. lets see wat sifu says...

I was told that it did not made much different except if you use multiple monitors with high resolution.

Hope that someone can guide/test out what is the clear advantage of 2GB GT540M card against 1GB cards

asus u31sd already out here? i thought u36sd will follow u36jc is u31sd thin like u36jc?

Its very new, probably won't be able to find any yet
Not much info from the net regarding this laptop as well... need to wait and see

Marketing strategy indeed but, from what I understand, playing games in larger reso comes in handy when you have extra memory. Well, maybe then, this move is meant for those who wants to hook their lappy with an external screen which have a larger reso.
So I'm assuming that watching 1080p movies or playing games in a fullHD TV won't be a big problem.

Well, that's why we have been saying it's overkill for such a GPU... Playing games in higher resolution as in 1080p? GPU like 540M is only a Class 2 GPU, playing games in 1080P would be killing its limits already, that's why the extra vRam won't really help at all...

Huhuhu...

I want to be proud of my 2GB GT540M and you just burst my pride

you will do for us?? can/.



o.O like dat

Wonder if its worth the extra money
