Bro i think you are quite pro on Asus since you are the thread starter. I'm really stuck with Asus and Acer now in decision of getting a laptop.

Can you let me know which should i choose? I mean Asus model. Budget must be below rm3000 and more on gamings.

so far decision is still on this few model :

1) Asus A53SV-SX106V - i5
2) Asus A43SV- SX028V - i7
3) Acer 4830TG Timeline - i5
Actually i also can pay extra for N53SN - i7 but got 2 major problems.

1) Keyboard i totally cant accept.
2) I heard this model is phase out? WIll they come back with new model with better keyboards?

Basically, Astria has pretty much summed it all up. If you have a problem with the keyboard then that would be an issue as you'll be stuck with it for a while.

The alternative is the U41SV. A normal chiclet keyboard but it packs a GT540M which is good enough for anytime you can throw at it.

that's the standard weight of 14" 2yrs ago... laugh.gif

the U41SV actually reminded me of my old laptop...

And then it got heavier for some weird reason... sweat.gif

blame Asus N80V and N81V i guess... tongue.gif

they probably set the standard for performance of a top notch 14" and it's inevitable to increase the weight when u need a better cooling solution... nod.gif

no, N series = Performance while A = Entry...

they re juz 2 different lines of family targeting different market...

N53SN, N53SV, N43SN and M43SL are the current models in the N series now...

Most likely the heatsink placement, where the heat transfer from GPU to CPU then to fan..

Maybe from user to GPU to CPU to fan then to ppl sit opposite? tongue.gif

just read the specs of U41SV. what is so special? Why it is priced at rm2899?


1 more thing on Asus, there is lack of info on the website. and it is very misleading. until now i still cant confirm whether the A43SV/A53SV is aluminium silver or black in the inside.

I pm 2 sellers Hikari and Netherless. Both says it is black in colour ( whole black even interior ) but when i check at Lowyat building and PC FAIR it is aluminium silver in the keyboard panel.

and still i cant find many info on A43SV-SX028V.

honestly the battery on my N81Vp is only slightly heavier than the old BenQ S41...

take it off and u can feel that u didn't take out bulk of the weight of the laptop... majority of the weight went into the heatsink and the LCD...

light weight, long battery life with good hardware (GT 540M), that's the selling pt of U41SV...

then couple it with Asus' 2yrs int'l warranty...

The newer laptops with Sandy Bridge procs can last around 3-4 hours now but the U41SV wipes the floor clean at 8 hours.

2-3 hours is what?

A43Sv with i7 is likely to not have Nvidia Optimus which is a really bad thing, maximum battery life probably 3-4hours on battery saving mode and light web browsing... Not to mention it's hotter..

Meaning that without optimus this model I use for gaming can last only less than 2 hours? That suppose to be little. Why always everything is not perfect? If this model have optimise and 3.0 USB then no need think Liao
