if changing laptop CPU easy as deskstop...sure lot of people will do

ya, problem is that the mobile processor is hard to source and moreover the price sure very high.

But its worth rm2199 for this machine. For sure we cannot expect much from it.Its rm2199 !
Invest rm3k++ for smooth playable crysis.

who is using window 7 with this laptop now?
any driver problem?

can vista drivers be used with windows7 ?

Hi, i'm new here. And i'm looking to buy this 4730z laptop because of its low price. I'm currently using an Acer Aspire 5562 (Core Duo 1.66GHz, 2GB RAM, ATI x1400 discrete card) and wants to upgrade to a newer laptop.

So, can anyone tell me that;
1. If it is possible to buy this laptop minus windows license, coz i already have original vista license purchased separately.
2. How long is the battery life?
3. Is it hot?
4. How much improvement i will feel if i upgrade to this laptop, since i'm coming from a 1st Generation Core Duo (not Core 2 Duo!). My current laptop has 2MB cache though..

There is another Acer Laptop for RM 2,399 i think it is 4930 or so, With Core 2 duo 2.0GHz but with Intel X4500HD.

So, which one i should choose? I do light gaming (Racing etc)..

Thanks

1. nope, it comes preinstalled
2. 1 and half hours of non heavy use
3. the laptop cooler makes a noticeable difference. the keyboard was cool while the mousepad area was warm.
4. no idea.

if u read previous post they said its actually c2d but remove something..so its more like a bonus?and never get intergrated..this is why i get this lappy..ati radeon 3470

Yup it is like a stripped down C2D and definitely will run better that the Dual Core 1.66mhz and X1400 ure having.

I am just worried that the limited 1MB L2 cache may make this processor slower especially when doing programming (program compilation) and when running VmWare..

hmm you have got a point too .. really not sure until users give their review on this .

i have two questions regarding on acer aspire 4730zg, hope you can answer it please... :-)

1. does intel pentium dual-core processor = intel core2duo processor?
2. will the aspire 4730zg deliver superior graphics in gaming with combination of pentium dual-core processor + ati radeon 3470?

2. let's be realistic here.

1.half half..not a full c2d
2.why take 4730zg if u wan superior graphics in gaming?

1.The diffrent between Dual Core T4200 and Core 2 Duo T6400 is just he cache memory.T4200=1mb T6400 2mb.
Performance is just 7 or 8% diffrent.(According to the benchmark)
Dont care too much for the dual core and core 2 duo....act is the same thing..this is jsut a marketing strategy for
the intel company.
2.Dont even think about a RM 2199 laptop can give u a superior graphic,,,act it is just best graphic card build in for
laptop below RM2500..

I am a user for 4730zg,,,
