i have try to call for the shop,
Asus N43SL, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M@RM2599[2.4kg][Bang & Olufsen] (don't have USB 3.0 port) =.=" Asus U41Sv, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M@RM2899[2.14kg] (don't have USB 3.0 port) =.=" For asus only i7 / 15'6 model having 3.0 usb port Acer TimelineX 4830TG, i5-2410M + GT540M@RM2499[2.2kg] (Yes, having stock) Y470, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT550M@RM2999[JBL] (No Stock, Coming Soon) So, i just can consider Acer & Y470. But if i wait for Y470, don't know when will be arrival. haiz..... |

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jun 9 2011, 06:19 PM) Definitely sufficient Yes, there is a manual button to swith the GPU on/off & also the software will auto swith the graphic.  But we're talking about normal Photoshoping la, not those expert, very very big projects one No FreeDOS Added on June 9, 2011, 6:21 pm Wow, grats on your purchase!  I guess you're the 1st one here hehe~ Mind sharing a review What do you mean "how to switch it on"? Nvidia Optimus will do that for you... and isn't there a manual switch as well?  but i don't know how to test for the memory, after i switch on the graphic it is anywhere to check the memory use? |
