Turion X2 in CQ40 is much better than Pentium Dual Core in 4730zG

ATI 3470 HD is about the same with ATI 3450 HD the only difference is ATI 3470 has higher clock...both are discrete GPU
ATI 3200 is integrated GPU....it uses memory from ur laptop RAM....

u can check the performance of CPU and GPU at notebookcheck....

what i can say is 4730zG is much better offer with 4gig RAM and 3 year warranty....

hafz, are you going to use very demanding photo editing software like Photoshop CS4? I think this notebook works very well because of the dedicated graphic card and the large capacity of rams.

just bought this at pc fair for RM2300, with supercare 1 included (RM198) and without freebies.

tested nfs prostreet on this at medium settings and it performed well    will try more graphically demanding games soon.

oh, and has any1 tried running gta4 on this model yet?

HaHa just bought tis lappy on sunday from pc fair...

I bought it from Evernew at PJ IT Mall...They cant give much discount like RM100 off if i dowan the free gift...so i just take it together with some discount.
They say not much profit/commission they earn from selling this model compare with the other acer model lah.

hmm thanks for the advise
I try the hubs using 1 pendrive, mouse and cooler pad and it works fine....but when i use the hubs with mouse, cooler pad and MP3 player...it will not work...hmm maybe my mp3 player automatically charge the battery and cause the hubs not enough power.haha

Ohya anyone having problem with their keyboard??my keyboard just the "E" alphabet letter when pressed will have some squeaking sound something like "ngek ngek rubber sound"...others keys is working fine.

Hi guys,
Another new 4730ZG owner reporting in... just got it in PC Fair today. Btw, I am from Penang

The very first thing I did was to remove all the junks (Acer Game Consoles) and those trial wares... I use Avast! instead of McAfee... So far so good... I like it very much!!!!

hey guys, my friend bought this 4730zg, and I was helping him to install windows xp, but I tried 5 different XP installation discs, and all had the same problem: when it goes to "setup is starting windows", BSOD comes out and screws me. anyone encountered this problem before?

anyway, I think it's a good deal, for 2199 you get lots of stuff, namely 3470, but sadly not core 2 duo. And except for the fact that it's acer, it's rather good.
