Warcraft yes, CnC or AoE no idea becoz i seldom play games, if u find it's playable w Geforce FX5200, it should be equivalent to tht it's the GMA950 bottlenect, no matter which model u choose, the GMA950can only do light gaming IBM service is excellent, as long as u bring it to their service centre at Tmn Tun Doktor Ismail (will be shifting to 1U), but on-site service wise, the only u can rely is DELL, other brands is just

@shirohamada, thanks for the great info  @Raja Utara, in benchmark yes, but real life no, because 3D take the major role here.. wat u hv to concern is the video converting, it relies on the processor more rather than gaming, however it would be differs in few seconds too  C2D is great mainly because of the 64bit function to support 64bit vista, but i doubt the maturity time for the 64bit software to take advantage in this few years if the RM300 is not a significant amount for u, go for the C2D, it'll tend to be more future approve; but if RM300 sounds a burden, CD1.60 will be just fine, at least for the coming 2 years time, 32bit will not die because there is 32bit vista, and 32bit vista will run 16bit program where 64bit vista cannot This post has been edited by wtm0325: Jan 25 2007, 06:11 PM

hmmm....i think i'm going for the 945425A. feels like "alang-alang" buying one, might as well get me one that can last for 3 years minimum.
the 1G ram offered, is it 1 slot or 512 x 2?
any review by current user of this lappie is much appreciated...

( sorry for promote myself here as my sales not really promising recently )
