Hi, guys ([PF] T.J. in particular) thank you for recommending the Asus U41SV. I bought it from ALL IT (Lowyat) for RM2899.

I have to say this is a great laptop. Its light, compact and best of all quite powerful. I can finally carry my laptop around everywhere biggrin.gif.

It can play all the games i have tried until now. I can play them at a respectable setting. Unless you are "Leet" gamer i think this laptop will give you quite a satisfactory gaming performance.

Thank you once again.

Oh, I am sorry ><

Budget: Not more than 2.5k
Usage: Programming & gaming
Screen size: Larger is better for me ~ but it really doesn't matter

So any idea?

MSI FX420 VS ASUS A43SV @@ or there is a better option? icon_question.gif

@@ I see, one of my friends does have a ASUS laptop and he just experienced internal hard disk problem.. He lost all his data and went through warranty service =.=" Did any ASUS user here experience that?

I not sure about it, is that true NVIDIA GPU is easy to overheat than ATI? That's what I heard from my friends...

So anyone can clarify these 2 issues above? ><

1st issue, it all depends on luck... perhaps the HDD was damaged prior to purchase etc. Its common in all laptops, regardless of brand
2nd issue, whether a laptop overheats or not pretty much depends on the model of the GPU used, and ultimately the cooling system of the laptop nod.gif
In general, Nvidia is better in a sense that they have more regular driver updates; whereas AMD is better in terms of power consumption

Agree+1
An gpu grade isn't a factor to determine the heat generated. Heatsink, vents and fans are crucial to a laptop cooling system and overclock ability.

E420s is slimmer, lighter, metal chassis, edge-to-edge glossy display, thinklight, non-removable battery, and use 7mm HDD.
E420, plastic, anti-glare screen, and use standard 9.5mm HDD..
