Its automatic, though you can turn it off if you want to (but that'll beat the point of getting an i5 in the 1st place laugh.gif)

Pavilion G4-1204TX/1205TX, i5-2430M + AMD HD6470M@RM2149; colors: Charcoal Grey/Sonoma Red
Pavilion G4-1112/1113TX, i5-2410M + AMD HD6470M@RM2199[2.1kg]; colors: Charcoal Grey/Sonoma Red

If i take either of these models, worth it or not now?

It depends, if you prefer to have a laptop with a better speaker and don't mind the relatively weaker GPU performance, then its worth it.
Otherwise, go for this one since you can get it ar ~RM2.1k as well:
Asus A43Sv-VX264v, i5-2430M + Nvidia GT540M(1GB)@RM2349[2.44kg]

The speaker is not good, but the specs are.... You can easily get a pair of better external speakers in the future hehe~  thumbup.gif

Well, laptop reliability sometimes depends on luck.
Personally, if reliability, I trust more on Toshiba and HP from experience.

Ya my dad also, he only trusts toshiba, hp and lenovo rclxub.gif
