8GB of RAM

Thx for sharing. I like the spec but im a traveler. 14 more suitable 4 me. As im not a gamer,cpu is my main priority.
With i7 3610. I can set to power saver mode n stil can get gud batt life.

thanks for the input. try to run win8 now

first impression.

-realy good interface os
-battery can stretch a bit longer.

at nvidia program. there is an auto mode, integrate graphics or nvidia processor columm. highlight the one u desire and voila.
