why is the N43SL seemed to be most preferred model? it's GPU has less RAM than the A43SV and A43SV is cheaper too... why is it cheaper actually?? seems like better specs in A42SV.. is it because there's no nvidia optimus enabled in it?

yup haven't found reviews on these  .. does the optimus really improve battery and temp significantly... can't i just underclock the gt 540 when i am not doing any gaming? I am doing it on my desktop computer with my radeon 4870HD mainly to reduce noise and temp.

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Jun 26 2011, 09:43 PM) Actually there are reviews, but on N53Sn and K53Sv (K = A): N53Sn: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Asus-N...ok.52431.0.htmlK53Sv: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Asus-K...ok.56057.0.htmlSince the specs are not exactly similar, its not a very accurate reference Nvidia Optimus should be able to squeeze out another 0.5-1 hour? Just a guess though  if it's only a gain of about 1hr that's not really a big deal imo

how much difference does the 2gb ram found in the GT540 for the A43SV provides as compared to the 1gb ram found in the N43SL pr U41SV?
