QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Nov 30 2011, 09:41 AM) If you're into gaming, then the G53 would definitely be the better option. hahah silly me.. act what i mean is.. im not just into hard core gaming, i would like to use it for editing or programming.. and i also enjoy a great quality movie (1080p).. so which one is better between them??If you still want a little bit of portability, then choose the N53Sn... The G53 should be better built~ What issues about the G53 have you heard?  and yah .. how bout acer AS5755G??? This post has been edited by firefake: Nov 30 2011, 11:42 AM |

Both have the same processor and are both capable of editing and programming. The G53Sx is said to have Full HD screen as well, so its better for 1080p movies. The relatively more powerful GTX560m will also help in gaming~ So I think the G53Sx would be the better pick provided you are okay with the relatively larger size and heavier weight and yah .. how bout acer AS5755G??? |

QUOTE(chenwah88 @ Nov 30 2011, 02:57 PM) i mean quality of brand because my housemate bought acer with free five years warrantly Every brand have different lines of laptops e.g. budget, business, premium etc. it spoiled and repair again and over again until she change new laptop Budget ones will surely not be as good as more expensive ones... Other than that, these are electronics, sometimes it depends on a little bit of luck.. But its mostly dependent on how the user takes care of his/her laptop.... |
