Thanks for the advise  tongue.gif  just to busy body any difference that Nvidia with the ATI series ?

3.i doubt that they still will gimme the subwoofer  drool.gif

In between Nvidia and AMD, err.... performance depends on which GPU models are you comparing.
But in general, Nvidia GPUs have better driver and software support; whereas AMD GPUs are cheaper and generate less heat

3. Yes they will still give if its new unit, its bundled altogether... the problem is whether you can find one or not... I doubt you'll be able to find it in PC Fair... Digital Mall, LYP etc., then perhaps yes nod.gif

Bought myself at last at KLCC PC Fair.
After looking at Lonovo E125 (hate it so much due to the nipple mouse), MSI U180 (freeDOS), Toshiba Netbook with Harman/Kardon and Hp dm1, i decided to buy the HP dm1 (E450/2GB) which has 500gb hdd including win7hb 64bit at rm1190 (price by HP next door was is rm1399) plus free laptop bag, plus rm30 Jusco voucher, plus RM10 Starbuck card and a trip to Beijing (hehe). Planning to see/feel Asus 1215B but got no stock and spec only has Win7Starter and bigger screen. Nevertheless still happy with my purchase. If kong in 7 days, got 1-to-1 exchange. So far so good. Now can start to do my loads of paperworks. Tq to TJ

Wah, how come got so many goodies one? shocking.gif
I is jelly laugh.gif
Anyway, grats on your purchase yo!

Can consider MSI's GE620DX as well~
GE620DX-675, i7-2670QM + Nvidia GT635M + (1920x1080)@RM3599, 8GB, 750GB, 2 years warranty

But as you said, RM3.6k is sort of a hanging price, getting the Asus G53 would be the better choice, especially if your main priority is gaming~
After bargaining, you should be able to get around RM3.8k for the Asus G53 I guess hmm.gif

1)A43Sm-VX102v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M@RM2099[2.4kg], 2GB, 500GB (5400rpm)
2)A43Sm-VX002v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M (2GB)@RM2499[2.4kg]v, 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm)

I don't know which one to choose between these two. I want 4GB ram but i think 500gb HDD is enough. Have to add 400 to get the second one. Worth it? If add 2gb ram only rm 50.
*
According to devour, the A43Sm (RM2099) is no longer available, so you'll have to look for one, but there should be plenty of remaining stock left nod.gif
And yes, upgrading RAM yourself would be much cheaper, ~RM70 per 4GB RAM brows.gif
VRAM doesn't matter much for the GPU, so don't worry about it nod.gif

1. Preferred Brand : Acer / Asus
2. Budget : Below RM2.5k
3. Usage : A little of everything
Buying my first laptop and currently i have been trying to decide between acer 4752G i5 and V3-471G i5. Anyway, how much is it to upgrade 4752G 2GB ram to 4GB? But after asking around, everyone kept asking me to buy Asus as it is said to be more stable. My friend told me that warranty wise, Asus warranty would take weeks while Acer would normally take a few days. Now i thought of buying Asus A43SD i5. I need someone to put my mind at rest.
*
A piece of 4GB RAM is around RM70... so a 2GB RAM should be much cheaper laugh.gif
As for warranty claims, it all depends on the severity of the damage, it may take from days to months... but both Asus and Acer are not really that good when it comes to warranty claims..

For your budget, you can get these Asus instead, the graphic card is better:
Asus
A43Sa-VX083v, i5-2430M + AMD HD6730M@RM2499, 750GB (7200rpm)
A43Sm-VX102v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M@RM2099[2.4kg], 2GB, 500GB (5400rpm)
A43Sm-VX002v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M (2GB)@RM2399[2.4kg]v, 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm)

*Try to look for the 1st model, otherwise, go for the 2nd model and then add in another piece of RAM yourself... go for the 3rd model if you can't get the 1st two tongue.gif

1. what is the capacity of GT630M RAM? as reviewed in several website, GT630M's RAM in A43Sm-VX102v is 1GB while 2GB in A43Sm-VX002v.
2. what the capacity of GT610M RAM in A43SD-VX419V? 1GB @ 2GB?

*my aim now is Asus A43Sm-VX102v, but still blur about its GPU & problem with after sales service.
another option is Lenovo Z470 5932-2181 14" Z-Series Ideapad. ;-)

GPU VRAM is not important in determining GPU performance. For examples, for the M14x ,my 3.0GB GT555m performs almost similarly to a 1.5GB GT555m sweat.gif
All you need to know is:
Performance: GT630M = GT540M > GT610M

TQ Sifu...

from your personnel view, which model worth to buy? Lenovo @ Asus?

I think you are referring to these models right?
Asus
A43Sm-VX102v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M@RM2099[2.4kg], 2GB, 500GB (5400rpm)
A43Sm-VX002v, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT630M (2GB)@RM2399[2.4kg]v, 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm)

Lenovo
Z470, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT540M@RM2149, 4GB, 500GB colors: Black/Pink

Both models are more or less similar in terms of specifications so there's not much of a problem there laugh.gif
Asus's laptops does come with 2 years international warranty yo; whereas Lenovo's laptop have much ergonomic keyboard hmm.gif
Personally I think you should just go for the laptop that you like more~

Since you're not buying a in a hurry, I would suggest you to wait for the upcoming models with Ivy Bridge and Nvidia Kepler (which is much more powerful) nod.gif
We are seeing some Ivy Bridge powered notebooks with Kepler already, its just a matter of time before more comes nod.gif

Wanna ask again sorry. Ivy Bridge processor , will come along with nvidia kepler graphic cards? or are they seperated?

TQ.

Generally, Ivy Bridge processors come with an integrated Intel HD4000 GPU... whether Nvidia or AMD GPUs are added in as a dedicated GPU depends on the manufacturer...
Usually gaming notebooks will have these dedicated GPUs whereas budget/ ultraportables won't have them (at least for now tongue.gif)
