Came across a Samsung 7 series at Samsung@Gardens yesterday... man its a damn nice laptop thumbup.gif
The spec is considered as very good for the price, worth considering for businessmen or those who are always on the go  thumbup.gif
13"
Samsung 7 series, i5-2430M + AMD HD6490M + (1600x900 [14" matte][300nit])@RM3599[2.07kg], W7HP, backlit keyboard

I was there this afternoon. laugh.gif

It's pretty good alright. Felt solid and the screen is quite a looker!

Wow, so coincidental? laugh.gif
I love the HD+ screen, very bright, matte some more... And I have to say the price is not bad also compared to the 13" Vaio  thumbup.gif

But 14" with HD6490M lah bro. If 13" even more gooding. thumbup.gif

I see I see, thanks for the input  notworthy.gif
If only its a Dell laugh.gif
I doubt most business users here won't be very confident with getting a Samsung business notebook... not really sure how reliable they are sad.gif

Still loyal to the U47 bro?  brows.gif

Well, only time will tell. Need some guinea pigs to try laugh.gif

Still loyal until I find out about the GPU. As long as it's a GT630M and above. laugh.gif

Imagine if the XPS 13 comes with a full powered CPU, it's battery life will be even shorter!

About 80+% faster than the HD3000. Which kinda puts it at GT335M levels..

This, is not really such a bargain since it has a weaker processor and no discrete GPU. Through I'm sure the throttling issue still isn't solved yet.

I'd noticed that almost all the lightweight laptops come with AMD GPUs (AMD HD64xx, HD74xx) rather than Nvidia ones, any idea why that is so? Is it because of the lower heat emissions?  hmm.gif

Down the ladder, AMD has made quite good progress with low power consumption, heat emission and performance chips. So, not much of a surprise especially seeing how well their desktop graphics are doing.

Well, Nvidia's CUDA is more used compared to its AMD counterpart. They really pushed hard for it.

The new U3X/4X series would have Nvidia chips. Problem is, which one?? hmm.gif

U3x I'm thinking will probably either be IGP or GT610M sweat.gif

Think so, or run the program with the Nvidia GPU I guess.

Well, probably. I'm just hoping they'll stuff a GT635M in it if not a GT640M. biggrin.gif

Iinm, the GPU's CUDA cores still aren't so optimized compared to a real workstation GPU's. hmm.gif

Well, I know for one thing I might put my U41SV purchase on hold now.

Was thinking of getting rid of the A42JV, get the U41SV for cheaps and then sell off for the U47VC. laugh.gif
