QUOTE(vaderboy @ Oct 4 2011, 03:57 AM) Hi, I want to ask. Does hp pavilion suitable for long term use? Does it has issue about the performance? Which brand is better for long period usage, pavilion or toshiba or other?

QUOTE(winter-X @ Oct 4 2011, 10:02 PM) 1. Any Brand How about Dell Vostro 3350/3450? 2. Budget <3k 3. Illuminate Keyboard, USB 3.0 4. For AutoCad Program + Multimedia + Light Gaming usage actually i quite like sony vaio C series but then its spec is not as good as other brand with same price range...and some of my friends always said sony brand exp on its brand only... is that any other brand that have a nice design+color other than black and white...  Vostro 3350, i5-2430M + AMD HD6490@RM2636[2.04kg], W7HB, backlit keyboard, Belkin HDMI cable, Belkin Radius 15.6" Backpack Vostro 3450, i5-2430M + AMD HD6630@RM2577, W7HB,backlit keyboard, Belkin HDMI cable, Belkin Radius 15.6" Backpack The 3350 (13") is smaller and lighter, but its weaker in terms of specifications (GPU) and sound quality. As for design, its all down to user preferences I would say These Vostro comes in 3 colors, grey/red/bronzeThis post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Oct 4 2011, 11:29 PM |

QUOTE(icp @ Oct 5 2011, 11:37 AM) hey guys! There are 2 variants of the N55sf, but I guess you're referring to the i5 variant (RM2799)whats the difference between asus n45sf and n55sf besides the screen size? other specs are same.. does it mean n55sf (15.6") is the wiser choice? my budget is around that price The i5 variant of the N55sf rather weirdly has a HD+ (1600x900) matte screen, which is considered as a steal. So if you're okay with a 15" laptop, then the N55sf (i5) would be the one to pick |

QUOTE(nicholas_1213 @ Oct 5 2011, 08:50 PM) 1. Preferred Brand - Any brand will do.. Some other alternatives: 2. Budget - Below RM5k 3. Usage - Normal daily usage, photo editing, very minimal gaming.. 4. Preferred laptop/screen size - Prefer to be 14" below.. 5. Additional requirement - must have optical drive.. Currently in mind is Asus U46SV, looks light with reasonable ok spec and also with optical drive (no, I would not want an external OD so many extra thin / light laptops are out). Wonder is there any other better recommendation? 13" » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 14" » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(nivlanauk @ Oct 6 2011, 11:05 AM) What's the difference between using nvidia and amd? I have the perception that amd heats up easily? QUOTE(Acid_RuleZz @ Oct 6 2011, 11:19 AM) afaik, with Nvidia u'll have support for feature like CUDA and no, AMD current GPUs won't heat up easily. Nvidia usually has more frequent driver updates. Whereas AMD's GPUs are cheaper Added on October 6, 2011, 11:22 am QUOTE(alvinfks78 @ Oct 6 2011, 10:40 AM) Hey, Need a recommendation laptop with most "bang for buck" . Thinking of. Best bang for buck? Definitely the 4755g Asus A43TA, AMD A6-3400M + AMD HD6720 G2@RM1899 Acer TimelineX 3830Tg, i3-2310M + Nvidia GT540M@RM1999 Aspire 4755G-2432G50, i5-2430M + Nvidia GT540M@RM1899 It will be placed permenantly in living room connected to HDMI TV(720p). and Mostly Used for gaming. Thank you.  Added on October 6, 2011, 11:27 am QUOTE(xxmetalhead86xx @ Oct 6 2011, 10:30 AM) ok guys.. the other day people say in terms of customer service dell is the best... then some people say go for ASUS... so wat do you expert think? im in a dilemma here, im leaning more towards dell, i read at /k/ someone is having trouble with ASUS. give me your opinion plz thx It all depends on luck and how the user takes care of his/her laptop ASUS A43SJ-COLOR SERIES VS DELL INSPIRON BUDGET RM2K If you're going for Dell, its best that you extend the warranty to 3 years. Alot of ppl choose Dell because of the superb warranty support~ If you're abit tight on budget, then the Asus would be a great pick as well since it comes with 2 years international warranty as standard This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Oct 6 2011, 11:27 AM |
