The S56 is an ultrabook aimed for lightness and slimness

The Z580 is a mainstream notebook and has better performance but heavier weight

So its entirely up to you, if you want performance, then its the Z580 for you. Otherwise, its the S56

currently no overheat issue. just have to monitor the temperature and dont let it go up to 90C when gaming.

Errr ... why a sudden interest in Y480? It's not 15"
Yes, it run a bit warm, nothing that cannot be solved

is it same issue with last batch of dell studio???once over temperature the screen will spoild???

can i knw the current price of s56cm(i5),z508(i5/i7),y580(i7) ?

y480 is 14 inch @@
overheat issue ? should be no bah

z580 is for normal notebook, but is heavier if compare with s56 because it is ultrabook, so sure is slim and lighter

15.6"

did u sell labtops?

Actually laptop (all electronics) components are suspectible to heat
For example, HDD if constantly operated under high temp, tend to have shorter life span
Laptop, being small and has a confined space, don't dissipate heat as well as a full size desktop tower. Therefore if you get a laptop, make sure you keep it cool (using cooling pad or any other ingenious methods ... ) and keep it clean (make sure no dust block the inlet / outlet vents ... ).

Y480 has some powerful components (i7, GT650M) in a small body, tend to get warm under load (the area around HDD is particularly warm ... Best long term solution is to swap the HDD to ODD place).
Y400, from what we see, has much better thermal profile.

Closest is this:

I think you can get it ~ RM27xx if you bargain hard enough. Do note there are grey imports as well (usual caveat apply).
SSD is getting cheaper, but still relatively expensive (128G ~ RM250++). Wait for 1-2 more years, it should become much more affordable

if there is disaster in the country of where the SSD is manufactured, perhaps the price will increase? one of the shops around my area has increased the price of SSD.

Be patient 1+ year ago, 64G SSD is going for ~ RM250. Now we can get 128G for the same price
Just wait 1 more year, when 256G go for the same price, I will say SSD will finally go mainstream

Top 5 NAND flash manufacturers are Samsung, Toshiba, Micron, Hynix, Intel. Yup, if something happen in Northeast Asia, SSD price could go haywire

Have to be patient haha
Starting of a new era hehe~

Also a lot of NAND is produced in Singapore ...

Yup, I show my age, but I remember those day when HDD start at 20MB
