A43E-VX06 is it a good affordable laptop for non gaming use?

yep, but do mind that it comes with no OS, need to install on your own


QUOTE(xcen @ Jul 18 2011, 07:15 PM)
Here's what I look for in my laptop:

1. Light, 1.7kg and below.
2. Decent battery life, 5 hours and above with Wifi.
3. Decent graphic capabilities, must be better than Intel V3000.
4. Screen size anywhere from 13"-14"
5. DVDROM not compulsory.
6. Price below RM2k.

I don't think any laptops currently can fit into these requirements. I don't think Intel-based options can get NVDIA graphics for below 2k.

Therefore I'm waiting for Llano, any specific models should I be looking out for?

still not much choice for llano based laptop currently

as what sifu lee suggested,
N53Sv, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT540M(2GB) @RM3299[Bang & Olufsen], USB3.0, Asus Optical mouse

but i do think fullhd would be a nice feature to have when it comes to designing and stuff

XPS 15, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT540M@RM3699 [JBL], upgradeable to FullHD, backlit keyboard customizable

though it will be slightly over the budget when upgrade to fullhd+extend the warranty tongue.gif

Any other laptops below 2k?
Usage: Medium gaming mainly NBA 2k... Some Photo editing using Lightroom. 14' would be enuff.

gpu wise, satellite l745 sure win, plus 3 years warranty, too early to tell about llano's performance though

Hi guys, need help on choosing laptop again.

Brand: Any
Budget: 3k maximum, use it fully if possible, but not exceed
Spec: Any, Best bang of bucks, GPU have higher priority.
Size: 15
*
with 3k budget, those 15" most probably equipped with mainstream card gt540m such as

Aspire 5750G, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M(2GB) @RM2399
N53Sv, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT540M(1GB)@RM2699 [Bang & Olufsen]

but then, if u don't mind importing, can get
NP5165, i5-2410M + Nvidia GT555M + (1920x1080)@RM3236, FreeDOS

or can get dv6 without the headphone for the price around 3.2k++
DV6-6114TX, i7-2630QM + AMD HD6770 + BluRay

I will look into the Aspire and N53Sv, but the rest exceed the 3k mark, so it's impossible for me. 3k is the maximum
Oh how much is this?

that's 14"

Y470, i7-2630QM + Nvidia GT550M@RM2999[JBL]

another option if u interested with 14"

Pavilion Dv4, i5-2410M + AMD HD6750@RM2899
