i prefer C2D all the way not a Ms fanboy BTW cuz if ur not hardkore gaming, sure C2D will easily fulfill all ur casual gaming needs (wht more study use) and C2D defnitly better (unanimously) in multitasking n overall power as well as stability n heat issue.

I'd advise u to get at least 2Gb ram to be comfortable n 3gb if it's vista also for slightly heavier multitasking like me. vista x32 has been proven to read 3gb.

HI, I know nothing about notebooks at all.. All this while I have been using desktop. Im going to buy a powerful desktop mainly for 3d rendering & gaming soon... should cost bout 3k +. And I was thinking to get a light notebook...main usage are:

1. Able to surf net in starbuck, of course.
2. To present work to client (casually)
3. At least able to run Photoshop...and screen size must be comfortable for that.
4. Basic 3d modeling with 3d Max... with some test rendering...(not use for long hours rendering, Basically will like to model 3d with notebook, bring files to desktop for heavy render)
5. Requirement MUST at least better than my current pc:

-pentium 4 2.4ghz
-1gb ram
-Geforce FX5500, 128mb

6. travel as light as possible.. but same time do not sacrifice the screen size.

* Budget Rm 3k Below. The lower the better cause mOney focus on Desktop oredi. rclxub.gif


I think my main problem will be ... Compact size/light notebook with large screen? haha possible? shakehead.gif

Please suggest any laptop for me smile.gif HP, DELL, ASUS, SONY (if affordable....will be nice.. I love sony wub.gif .)

Thanks!

I dont think you can get a HP or SONY for below 3k...Probably a Dell 1420 or 1525.

the pic is the 18 inch one the diff with the 16 inch besides the slight diff in specs is the keyboard not having the numpad. both have the touch sensitive cinedash thingy which is quite cool ... what do you guys think ? any owners care to review them? =)
