QUOTE(Vox @ Apr 22 2011, 07:01 PM) i m trying to find info on asus laptop. u mean upgrade to ddr5 or upgrade to 8gb? but too bad, their site is very misleading and i cant find much info about A series model. You sure that it has HDMI pot? Btw, got lag while using multitasking? cos as i know this model is using i7 6m cache memory. should be very fast! the DDR3 ram is upgradable? sorry for many noob questions cos i m deciding which laptop to go for.  well its upgradable to 8gb..yea pretty sure, but i think u should clarify with someone who knows better ie a user.About multitasking well...so far no lag but i don't have time to try big stuff on it yet...after my exams, will start installing games, cad software, rendering softwares, and video editing  |

QUOTE(alucard1412 @ Apr 22 2011, 07:05 PM) u mean upgrade to ddr5 or upgrade to 8gb? why you choose this model at the first place? well its upgradable to 8gb..yea pretty sure, but i think u should clarify with someone who knows better ie a user.About multitasking well...so far no lag but i don't have time to try big stuff on it yet...after my exams, will start installing games, cad software, rendering softwares, and video editing basically this model is same spec as 5750g. and at the same price. So i was thinking which model should take -.- 14" seems like too small for gaming. and btw, optimus technology is important? |

QUOTE(Vox @ Apr 22 2011, 07:11 PM) why you choose this model at the first place? hm...didn't i just list down the stuff i wana install? i'm not installing them for the sake of testing out my i7 mind you, i do use them for my work. Anyway i'm ok with gaming with 14". As for optimus well...even without it can get a max of 4 hours battery life with wifi, lowest brightness and battery saving. Just that wont help reduce temps. I get about high 40s to mid 50s at idle with cooling fan. In aircon room can drop another 10 degrees.basically this model is same spec as 5750g. and at the same price. So i was thinking which model should take -.- 14" seems like too small for gaming. and btw, optimus technology is important? i'm one of those who gave up waiting for n43sl  besides, n43sl no i7 anymore...and this looks good enough for me.This post has been edited by alucard1412: Apr 22 2011, 07:19 PM |

The one above "gaming graphics", the label only "graphics"
If no Optimus, should have the same score... This post has been edited by lee_what2004: Apr 22 2011, 07:23 PM |

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Apr 22 2011, 09:50 AM) Grats on the purchase! Seems poisonous enough Thanks  After you remove the battery, the area above the keyboard, does it flex horribly? This use to be the main problem in the U45Jc, U460 and U41J   . Nope, no flex. Maybe because the battery is below that carbon fibre area instead of the keyboard itself.The one thing that seriously ticks me off is the glossy bezel around the LCD. Dust = scratch, wipe = scratch. One week old laptop already got so many, one year old leh? Especially since I take it everywhere. College, lunch at kopitiam, etc. |
