QUOTE(clarkblitz @ Jul 16 2012, 10:34 PM) Ok then.. i tink i've made up my mind Asus A43Sd runs on a weaker GT610m GPU, not worth the money compared to the A45vm will go for the Asus A45VM but I tot there was an Asus A43SD model last week published in the website? selling for RM 1899? Added on July 16, 2012, 10:36 pmOne more question, we can use RAM from other pc ryte? If I have 4GB RAM from a Samsung RV413 lappy, can use? Better to use RAM of similar frequency, and better still, same brand |

QUOTE(Xtrivia @ Jul 17 2012, 08:17 PM) Hi there, don't think the shop at my area has that model. The ones you mentioned are all old models, you'll be paying more for less Between the A43SD (i3) @ $1759, A43SD (i5) @ $1859 and A43TA VX072V (AMD A6) @ $1699, which is more better? Thank you Justin.  |

QUOTE(mr.123 @ Jul 18 2012, 09:36 PM) ey there. There are 2 variants of the N56, one comes with i5 (RM2.6k); the other i7 (RM3.6k)I am planning to get a laptop. I have a problem in choosing between these two. ASUS N56 AND LENOVO Y580 questions : 1.) is the screen on the lenovo good 2.) do both of the above laptops come in quad core ivy bridge ( 3rd gen i7 ) In between the N56 and the Y580... The N56 (i7) has a better FullHD screen -> more workspace, but reduced gaming performance if you're playing games at FullHD resolution (you can always lower the screen resolution though) The Y580 has a kick-ass GPU- GTX660m which is way powerful than the GT650M in the N56... it also supports Bluray.. the biggest drawback is the lack of a FullHD screen |

They do sell Asus over there what although the specs might be slightly different 1. Preferred Brand: ASUS 2. Budget: Below 2.5k 3.

QUOTE(ocyrus @ Jul 19 2012, 04:32 PM) Need recommendation for a laptop 14"1. Brand: Dell, Sony, Toshiba 2. Budget: RM 2k-3k 3. Usage: Multimedia and some heavy browsing 4. Screen size: Preferably 15.6", but 14" is okay as well Why Dell? Reliable after sales service and relatively cheap for good specs. Should I go for their Inspiron line or Vostro line? Why Toshiba? My friend and some online survey says it's reliable. But their design is really horrible. Why Sony? Their E-series has a very nice design and I like that their touchpad is somewhat similar to Apple's Macbook. But expensive! Also, when you recommend, can you please list down the prices? Thanks! » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 15.6" » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « For Dell units, do use the remaining money for warranty extension to 3 years Also, you might want to look into the Lenovo Y480 and Asus N56 as well, they offer better speakers for the price 14" Lenovo Y480, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650(GDDR5)@RM2799[JBL], 8GB, 500GB(5400rpm), backlit keyboard, W7HP, 2 years international warranty 15" Asus N56Vz-S3088V, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT650M@RM2699[Bang&Olufsen], 4GB, 750GB, W7HP, subwoofer and backpack This post has been edited by [PF] T.J.: Jul 19 2012, 05:05 PM |

I worried it will turn faded when i rest my hand/palm on the laptop in time being.... Its aluminium finishing... Don't worry, most laptops nowadays no longer use materials that will fade away/ corrode when expose to sweat... |
