Well I don't know, I'm a Dell user, although it got the quality, but they put those high-tech thingy at the expense.

Don't have touchscreen, can't twist the LCD Panel like HP.. sad.gif

The HP model TX series is a tablet PC, totally different category. Therefore cannot compare this way.

3D mark 06 wise, 3650 should be abt 5k+ (if using GDDR3), 4570 should be less than 4k...

According to notebookcheck, ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650 only scored in the region of 4k+ on standard 3DMark06 benchmark. Only when OCed can achieve >5k points according to notebookreview forum

3D Mark 06 has a lot of uncertainties...

CPU being 1...

anyway, 4k+ is still acceptable... considering that 9600M GT scores in this range as well...

Yes for DDR2 version of 9600M GT. By the way 4147 points is the maximum recorded score for HD3650 according to notebookcheck.

i think you guys wanted to compare the HD3670 from sxps 16, not the HD3650 right? that one scoring nearly 5k to me.

Talking of HD3650. For HD3670, no doubt it is faster.

Wonder if it's possible to ask dell for a upgrade? Having the 4670 would be just perfect for the 1640 tongue.gif

I had tried upgrading processor from Dell within 3 months time after purchase. They will take back the laptop & send over a brand new one instead. I only need to pay the difference. Not too sure of upgrading the gpu though.

how did u do that? i don see any option in their website?

You need to call Dell up, preferably look for the sales person that sold you the unit or insist them to ask approval from their unit manager. However if the unit is more than 6 months old I think chances are low.

afaik, as long as under warranty it still can be upgradeable.
but u need to top up.

It depends unless one is a huge customer of Dell, then the success rate would be 100%. I know a friend got denied in upgrading the lcd albeit under warranty, let alone the processor & gpu.

Hey. What if I buy it from Retailer? I hate that shop. Not professional and not honest.

Just look for a Dell sales person through their hotline & try your luck.
