Thanks

still confuse about this i5-2410M cpu, wonder if the i5 will lag if i open too many browsers tab while downloading at 400-600kbps and playing movie or mp3 at the same time? can't close my browser cause i am looking at stocks whole day. or is it the hard disk rpm that is the factor?

see even my PC with i7 and 8mb dedicated ram at home sometimes lag too cause i open to many applications or multitask too many things

8MB or 8GB? (not necessarily have to answer though)
Your PC is on DDR3 or DDR2? It makes a lot of difference in terms of the speed. Take it like a highway with 2 lanes and a highway with 3 lanes.
I don't think that the HDD RPM is a factor here except for the downloading part, which plays the heaviest role in hogging the hard disk.

Be aware that some of the Intel SSDs have the "detected as 8MB" problem, a firmware fix has been released, but I didn't catch up with the news sweat.gif

Well, it depends...
For that budget you could go for the Asus N55Sf as well...
It boils down to whether you need the full power of the Core i7 or not laugh.gif
Mind sharing your usage?

I doubt it'll lag if what you say is true (many browser tabs + downloading + movie/mp3)... these are not enough to pawned the i5 yet (i7 noneed to say already haha, perhaps the lagginess is due to lack of maintenance?) hehe~
But if you're running some intense programs (rendering, analyses etc.) in the background, then hard to say haha~ laugh.gif
i5 should be enough for normal users

And HDD rpm will also effect the speed you "read/start" data/programs...So its best to go for 7,200rpm ones... or just upgrade to SSDs if budget permits nod.gif

or customize:
Sager NP8170, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GTX560M + (1920x1080)@RM5254, FreeDOS

For 15"
Customize
Sager NP8130, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GTX560M + (1920x1080)@RM4429, FreeDOS
