count me in too if it's small size suitable for our laptop. =)

p/s : why duwana get C2D instead??

hmm.. about the CAS# latency, the higher or lower the better?

i have 2 kingston 1gb 667mhz and its stated 5..

Cause my laptop is running Core Duo. I don't wanna be like a poser/wannabe/pretend to have a C2D laptop.

I think you don't need to worry about the figures bro. As long dual channel, "cun" edi!

n i am still stuck with A09 bios..lazy to update lar wa...really ka ur notebook cooldown little bit?

pretend to be C2D notebook....can also wat

haha..yea..i saw some wif tonnes of stickers on the lappy. but core duo looks more authentic in my opinion.

should at least update to A12 ma. wont take long time oso. so A13 and A14 is reli not so stable? was afraird to update after heard what happened to steven..

guys

just ordered a dell inspiron 6400 RM2990 package at pc fair yesterday...opted for the +rm449 upgrade for 2GB + trulife - so shud get all the great things with package. And i've studied all the other competitor's flyers at the pc fair- none of them could give the value price dell is offering me yesterday. Yeah! very happy...cant wait for the notebook to arrive.

anyways - a stupid query here - the specs for the dell stated that i'll get an 'integrated stereo soundcard', no mention about SPDIF.

So wanna check - does this built-in soundcard has SPDIF ?? i'm a dvd freak and want dolby digital, dts or pcm (i.e. only digital sound) from my dvd movies if i play it through the dell to my digital receiver - so will i get SPDIF passthrough or will i only be stuck with stereo??

coz if it's only stereo, i need to get another external usb SPDIF soundcard like the Aurilium etc...but that would be wasting money ler.

So hope u guys can help my query. I think there should be SPDIF coz most new notebook comes with 'em...but just wanna re-cornfirm here coz the ppl at the DEll booth yesterday seemed a bit blur on this digital sound area...hehe...

thx!

u r rite, sticker for notebook is smaller as compare to desktop, i got my c2d sticker exactly the same size as default centrino duo one

since yours is cd, i suppose there is no impact. actually there is no gimmick here, the newer bios just do some adjustments on temp. threshold to trigger blower

me ....juz formatted my notebook 2 weeks ago and now again ~~~~


my hdd sure kong 1 ....hopefully under warranty

This laptop doesn't come with SPDIF.

really? aiyo......even my old desktop pc mobo has built in spdif....

now i'm sad

maybe i'll call their technical centre to re-confirm...

but yeah - there's always those external soudncard with SPDIF...anyone got extra wanna sell for cheap...hehe

philips external sc is cheap bah, rm150 i suppose?

yeah...but it's a rare item now. heard it out of production or something. used to have it but sold it to another forummer here ...now i'm regretting that...hehe

still, its kinda bulky...defeats the purpose of 'mobility' for a notebook...

i dell really had no spdif...very sad ler....got another notebook...hyundai brand...not very high end bought nearly a year agi. Even this one has spdif........

c'mon dell!

btw - this ismy 2nd purchase from dell...first one was a projector...got it 2 years ago for rm4K+ ...for it's cheap price those days i liked it. Still using it for my HT weekend nites...

yesterday they sold dell xga projecotr for only rm2200....i guess video quality is quite good if u are not fussy...so get it if u can.

Added on April 15, 2007, 4:11 pmanyways...still on this spdif topic...

it is a bit strange if this notebook has no spdif passthrough since the order sheet that i filled had these spdif cable options which i could buy as addition to the package...something like this...

TV out cable w / SPDIF' = RM11

composite SPDIF cable = RM14

and guess what? i bought these cables too...hehe.

so that would mean something write?? maybe i can only find out when it arrives...maybe there hope?

u guys with this notebook - do u see any SPDIF icon, tick box or something in your 'audio' property?? if there is - then it's there...if not...hmmm....

and another query - does the video i opted - 256 ATI MObility Radeojn X1400 comes with DVI? i forgot to check yesterday...silly me...
