hi guys..i'm planning to buy a laptop to do my design work.the software's i'll be using is mostly adobes and some 3d software like 3dmax and maya.for the 3d i wont be doin heavy work,just moderate 3d.
so i did my survey for laptops last week.the budget is around RM3500-4000.
so there are 3 brands...

1. HP tablet TX1214 -- RM3499.but this one that bothers me is the prosessor.for this price it uses athlon x2(i forgot the speed). ow ya i found a thread abt this model.there have been some problem abt the LCD's colour and the touchscreen sensitivity.any other prob you guys heard of?

2. SOny Vaio VGN-NR120E--RM3499( i was surprised with the price coz all i know is that sony is expensive)
this laptop uses intel centrino core2duo (again..i forgot the speed). with this price i've been buruk sangka. tongue.gif i keep thinking there might be a catch with this price.coz usually sony is expensive rite?plz need ur help here.. biggrin.gif



3.hmmm i dont know...whether a HP DV2000 maybe or macbook.but macbook i'm not really anxious with it cos of the OS.i'm a windows breed.. tongue.gif
all the laptop i mentioned above uses Nvidia or ATI right?so i think it'll support my 3d rite?

so can any of you who have used this laptops can give me a recommendation,tips?or maybe you guys tried it before.
any advice is welcomed.thanks a lot for the help.appreciate it.

first that is HP Pavilion TX1316AU but not TX1214AU which this model is definately doesntmeet your requirement

second that is Sony VAIO CR35GN but not NR120E.CR35 is using Intel T8100(2.1GHZ),ATI X2300(128MB Dedicated),2GB RAM,200GB HDD which is ok for your work

or maybe u can try HP Pavilion DV2703TX as well

ya the HP i forgot the model number. biggrin.gif

dude,for the sony it's not CR35GN.its NR120E.because that's what i saw at the shop.and that's what made me feel curious about it.coz i searched that model in the sony malaysia website,they dont have it.but in other countries they do.here,i got a few links of it

http://www.dealigg.com/story-Sony-VAIO-VGN-NR120ES-Notebook

but i'm not so sure of the spec in the links above.coz if i'm not mistaken the one that i saw in lowyat has a nvidia graphic card,and maybe(maybe) core2duo 2.0ghz.

so what do u think abt this laptop?

i've looked the DV2703TX specs...thats quite ok rite?core2duo 1.83ghz and an nvidia graphic card.
