QUOTE(astria @ Nov 13 2011, 07:53 PM) buy when u can't wait anymore... that's the best time... The 'tock' on Intel's roadmap is my and shud be our concern..Ivy Bridge? nah... despite using tri gate transistor, architecturally it's not really a major difference from Sandy Bridge since it is merely a "tick" on Intel's roadmap, so performance is roughly similar... So, if I wanna buy a new laptop, I will go for 'tock' which translate into Haswell GPU |

Ok, thanks for the replies everyone....
Sorry it has been a busy week. So in conclusion. Ivy Bridge does not offer major performance increase or laptop size decrease over Sandy Bridge and only power saving. ie not revolutionary. PC Fair prices don't have much diff over LOwyat or Digital Mall. (except got more beautiful showgirls) Buy Laptop anytime when you need it. Since Ivy n Win 8 may take till June 2012..... Sadly now aint too good a time to buy since the floods in Thailand caused HDD shortage and price increase.... THANKS! |

juz buy whenever u have an urge of need according to ur budget..IT product development juz won't wait for u..and there are always new tech awaiting to be release..so if u always wait for so called 'best time' , u'll end up with endless waiting cycle..

i think specifically based on the brand that u choose, to confirm whens the next line of product coming out. so that lets say u buy a model today, only a week later a new model comes out. Also, buy it when the price just dropped cause in my case i bought it abit too soon and it dropped 200 a week later. yes the models n price are always dropping but get it so that it dosent happen right after u just bought it. This is so u wont go 'arghh shouldve wait a few more days to buy it'

yeah, when do you guys think HDD price will stabilise? Guess I'm buying when I'm going to need it then, instead of predicting when cheap. of course see the models la... (again, how to close thread?)

Wait until you cannot hold any longer, at the same time making sure new releases of model, processor, GPU, and such, are still far away...
You don't wanna buy something when the new things come out within a week or month... new things as in things that really gives big impact... But then again, sometimes you may get unlucky on the guessing game... |
