QUOTE(beyond430 @ May 2 2007, 07:43 AM) the lenovo 945433A using GMA 950 izzit..? coz Y400 too many model liao, make me confuse.. if using GMA 950 then should be no major different liao.. i think Y400 slot in dvd-rw is a cool stuff, but just cant use small disc.. Yes,this is the model come with GMA950. I think better he take the HP v3250 rather than Y400 cos GF IGP has better gaming experience.

QUOTE(vpire @ May 4 2007, 03:07 PM) They sell it with higher price tag because they offer a longer period installment plan so you can't sue them. Haiz..The person who bought from them looks so pity. 1 month pay RM166.67x 24months looks so attrative. There are many saleman & gal. When walking near only they sure ll stick with u and keep asking questions. Do u hear about Aeon?Do u have cc?u like......

QUOTE(joegene89 @ May 8 2007, 08:27 AM) according to what u said is ATI Mobility Radeon(tm) X2300 with 128MB dedicated VRAM enough when heavy playin games ? Ati X2300 performance is same standard as x1400 only so dont put so higher hope on it. If u really is a heavy gamer than i suggest u take the Ati x1700/GF7700 above which is 2nd class GPU with 256MB dedicated RAM. Lower level than that just can support in medium setting(highest limit) in most latest 3D games. This post has been edited by tplcaik: May 8 2007, 08:47 AM

QUOTE(joegene89 @ May 8 2007, 09:08 AM) Ok does any HP notebooks offer card that u stated...my dad wants me to get HP.....budget not higher than 6k HP pavilion just use GF7400(highest). If u dont mind,u may try the HP Compaq nx8420 Business laptop (RM4999). The spec come with Ati X1600 which is 256MB dedicate RAM too(a bit low perform if compare with Ati x1700) but afford to support well in most latest game alr. I cant find any HP model preload with X1700 so i think this is the best else try Asus model which preload with x1700(RM6888). Here is the link.

(dunno is RM99 or around that per month) Thats is wat i mean. Last time I saw some promoters are promoting this RM68 maxis 3G boardband package there but is using wireless modem 1 la. They just put in the 3G card inside the modem to connect. The data transfer just 384kb/s.
