Hey guys will like to ask opinion on ASUS K46CM and ASUS S56CM,
The price difference is around RM300 - correct me if im wrong, but is worth it to spend the extra money to get a bumped specs of only a larger screen 14" (K46CM) and 15.6" (S56CM)h and also a 24GB SSD + 500 GB (S56CM) and the K46CM only 500GB. Others are the same specs. And any problems with the models mentioned??

If you do not intend on upgrading your laptop's HDD in the future, then go for the one with the mSATA SSD, it'll help hasten things up.

Both the 14" and 15.6" ultrabooks are generally okay apart from short battery life and bad after sales support

What do you mean by it will hasten things up?
Both the 14" and 15.6" has the same resolution of 1366x768, i have a concern on the 15.6" whether the quality will be better than the one in 14"

BTW, is the current price difference is RM300, saw in lowyat that its the same price.

Having an mSATA will help decrease program loadtimes/ file reading, thus giving you a significant boost of performance compared to conventional HDD nod.gif

normally will lag play hon and dota because your budget is very low and graphic card not good in gaming as well

either lenovo G480, i3-3110M + Nvidia GT635M@RM1499, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), FreeDOS (14 inch)

else
lenovo Ideapad Z585, A6-4400M + AMD HD7670M@RM1499, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), freeDOS, white (15.6inch)

*both also don't have OS

Yeah they sort of have the same specs as the one earlier recommended nod.gif
The ones I've recommended are relatively more "premium" (there are different laptop lineups for each brand).
Just like the Z series (thin and light) being generally better than G series (budget) for Lenovo.
