4. Size. widescreen

ya i want 14' laptop.

N43SL, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M@RM2699[2.4kg][Bang & Olufsen] *No USB3.0
A43Sv, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M(2GB)@RM2599[2.44kg]
*price taken here

why u recommend n43sl not a43sv ?

^N43Sl has better speakers, better design, and probably better cooling. N43 has Nvidia Optimus as well~
The battery life is said to be 7-8 hours now after BIOS update
Do take note that both the A43 and N43 (non-Jay Chou version) doesn't have USB3.0

bro... n53sv ada usb3???

New one have

acer Aspire 5750G, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT540M(2GB)
asus N53Sv, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M(1GB)
GT540m 1gb and 2gb wht diferent

lolx.... normal use no difference,..... gaming oli improve by 3 or 4 fps lidat...

2gb oli when u want to connect multiple external monitors.. otherwise... it's price is nt justified...



in the case above...

the acer hav i7 in ur price range.. that's why i shorlist...

for normal use (research and data processing)

budget: maximum 2k
main requirement: warranty at least 3 years (if possible onsite warranty)
spec: I3 2gb ram 500GB HDD

HP G42-456 TX : RM 1649 + 299 onsite warranty= RM 1948
Satellite L745-1050X- RM 1999 (carry in warranty)

which one better between these 2? any other better deals?

Toshiba Satellite L745 is the best.. it comes with 2 @ 3 years warranty...
and suite with your usage... comes with gpu will give you advantage... and the price not much different...
