not in notebook price catalog

[PF] T.J. you need to update from marcus lah

based on those three, i would say a43sj

o wait, i must've mistaken your requirement, so below 1.5k is

A42Jz, P6200 + AMD HD6470@RM1349[/B][2.2kg], FreeDOS
K43U, AMD E-350 + AMD HD6310@RM1299[2.6kg], W7S, [6-cell 5200mAH]
X42DE, AMD Phenom II N830 + ATI HD5470@RM1499[2.2kg], FreeDOS, Colors: Black/Blue/Red/White

right? hd6470 is relatively better compared to the other two, cpu wise n830 is relatively better compared to the other two.

dual core, tri core really depends on your usage and application you going to run, but since your usage is gaming,

A42Jz, P6200 + AMD HD6470@RM1349[/B][2.2kg], FreeDOS is the best.

if can wait, definitely wait, buy when you need

yep, that would be the best, buy only when you need it. you can't keep track with technology, new models always come out

got, in his original thread before this, in first post

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1912189&hl=

speccy from piriform

http://www.piriform.com/speccy

if u want to compare between u41sv and n43sl, both model have same i5-2410m + gt540m variant.

u-series is usually lighter and offer a longer battery life, meanwhile n-series got premium speaker (bang & oflusen)

i don't really know, since don't try speccy yet
but why don't you download both and compared?

DV6-6114TX, i7-2630QM + AMD HD6770 + BluRay@RM3699 [Beats][2.63kg], Beats headphones; RM3199 without Beats headphones

sure but then since gaming relies more on gpu, hd6770 is relatively better compared to gt540m

not sure how b&o audio compared to beats in hp though

if beats better than b&o, no reason to deny dv6 la

well, that's how we judge a gal doesn't it?

i think some of the price of xps weight on its backlit keyboard, better gpu, and different warranty?

i think what makes sager a gaming laptop is it has two different fan for gpu and cpu?

so, a high end spec and dedicated cooling,
that's the words i'm looking for, haha

X42DE, AMD Phenom II N830 + ATI HD5470@RM1499[2.2kg], FreeDOS, Colors: Black/Blue/Red/White ?

since it's colourful

for reso 900p or 1080p, your best shot will be

XPS 15, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M@RM3299 [JBL], upgradeable to FullHD, backlit keyboard customizable

or if you considering to importing sager,

NP5165, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT555M + (1920x1080)@RM3236, FreeDOS

regarding m14x, it's not a bad display per se, it's just glossy, so quite reflective for outdoor usage. and also not so average graphic tbh,
still is considered the most powerful 14" in the market for the time being.

edit: o wait, you can't get m14x with 4k budget

^ that is i7-2630qm + gt540m version right?

well then, good for you. but afaik, a43sv doesn't implemented optimus
so no optimus + i7, don't expect a long battery life
just a heads up

lenovo doesn't comes with some sort of utilies for customizing the multimedia keys?

Asus

A53Sv, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M (1GB)@RM2399

N53Sv, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT540M(2GB) @RM3299[Bang & Olufsen], USB3.0

Others (gaming purpose)
