cannavaro, that mean laptop RAM is cheaper than a desktop RAM lo?
wagaga....

if cq40-125ax (AMD turion x2 RM-70) add 2x2GB 800mhz RAM is about RM 2300 (2099+93+93)

asus F5SL with C2D T5750 with 2GB RAM ddr2 is about RM 2600

which one suit for me? becoz i dun wan to pay so much if can. both is about my budget.

I just dun wan too hot then is ok... oh ya one more thing to ask (^^), can i feel the diff with this AMD and C2D proc if i just moderate using and moderate gaming eg dota?

Regarding the OS, where can i find the OS? just buy the RM10 one pcs DVD and install? if can borrow from fren the original cd to install? my sis using dell 1420, can i use hers to install?

sorry, dun laugh becoz i nvr use laptop b4.... ("\(happy.gif)/")

if just normal gaming, the processor doesn't really gv much difference, if u r playing dota, almost all laptop r the same since that game r very old, if u wanna try the limit of ur GPU go ahead and try crysis, COD4, red alert 3, need for speed.

the proc is ok, heat is another issue but it seem acceptable for me. Im using for wordprocessor and normal gaming. I play crazy shooter online on high setting and waala...no regret at all hahahahaha


Added on November 9, 2008, 8:57 amoh, one more thing. When my lappie wokeup from sleep mode, it seem like the [fnc] button pressed constantly...i need to restart to make it disable again. Anybody encounter this issue?

thanks

You can still get UCare within 30 days since the purchase date of your compaq.

You can check their web for the Ucare resellers.

You can even run Vista x64 with 2GB of RAM. Thats not the problem. People say its way faster then 32-bit. At this moment I am using 32-bit as well , I haven't seen the whole need to upgrade to 64-bit. Maybe once Windows 7 is out its time to move on to 64-bit. You must bear in mind that some old stubborn software wouldn't work in 64-bit and some cheap china made products also wouldn't work on 64-bit as well (these folks don't even have a 64-bit driver)

^ Yeah totally agreed. Its not a good time to move on 64bit platform..yet. Im running smooth on 32bit platform and i think 32bit enough for now...unless the major prob with driver solved

It would be ideal to use 64bit OS if you have more than 3GB RAM.
