Hi guys,
I'm doing 3D animation for my major next semester, so i need a list of laptop with powerful performance that can handle intense 3d special effectsable to run Unreal 3 editor smoothly, and run 3d Max and Photoshop CS3 at the same time without much problem or even slowing the performance.

I also enjoy heavy gaming when I'm free, so I wouldn't like to have the computer to reboot , sudden Blue Screen of Death, and even to unable to run any other games after one game crashes ( it's like directX got "freeze" or something, for my case it's always while playing DotA)

Brand: As long they can provide good service and warranty, I'm a noob at choosing brand after all.

Budget: Maximum around Rm 8k, perhaps less, need to negotiate more.

Specs: Of course I would say the latest, but heck, as long it is able to run intense 3d work (specs for heavy gaming comes second), with about 2 Gb Ram large disk space as well (I do keep lots of stuff in my old laptop)

BTW, I know newer laptops comes with Windows Vista, but is it still possible to buy with Windows XP instead?

Thanks in advance.

BenQ laptops?

Hi guys,
Getting a new laptop next week
So I'm asking for a good (list?) gaming laptop for my Games Design studies.
Budget around RM6+-. I prefer 15 inch since I move around from time to time. But I wouldn't mind a 17 inch.

And, those who owns laptops with Vista. Does it cause any problem like program installed not running properly, missing .dll files, and so on. I'm worried about it. I'm asking since laptops now these days installed with Vista.

I appreciate any recommendations and advice.

XPS M1530 and HP DV5...

I'm looking the ones with very good processor and graphic card, but getting ones with Class 1 Graphic cards might be over my budget range.
When buying laptops from retail shops, can I still ask for customization like the ones offered when buying online?


Including gaming?

Guess that clear my doubts.
I'll just try to make good use of it. Sooner of later, have to Vista.
Then that leaves choosing a good laptop.
Thanks
