Hi, Off late I have been a silent watchman for this thread, but since I heard someone talking about AMD, want to make it very clear.
It's a wrong notion that AMD chips get heated up. For that matter, if there is no proper heat sink or exhaust ventilation provided any processor will fail. It's not for the reason that I am working in AMD, but for the reason that I have been using AMD processor for the past 10 years now and I have not come across any problem with them. Based on my experience, I can suggest the following notebook for various segments of users. Enthusiast Segment - Heavy Gaming/HD or Blu-ray Movies MSI GX660-053US Intel Core i5 450M(2.40GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory 500GB HDD ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Broadway XT NoteBook Intel Core i5 450M(2.4GHz) 4GB Memory 500GB HDD ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Broadway XT Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Chipset: Intel HM55 You may notice that I am not advocating the AMD Processor here, but the fact is currently there are no high-end processors competing the Intel Core i5 or i7. They are yet to get into the market. Mid Range Segment - Low duty Gaming applications / SD Movies Acer Aspire AS5551-2805 NoteBook AMD Athlon II Dual-Core P320(2.10GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory DDR3 1066 500GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 Value Segment - Photos / Music HP Pavilion DV6-3040US NoteBook AMD Phenom II Triple-Core N830(2.1GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory 500GB HDD 5400rpm BD Combo ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 Low Cost Segment - Simple 2D applications like spreadsheets, word documentation, Internet browsing You can get the details from here.... http://www.shopping.hp.com/series/category/notebooks/dm3z_series/3/compu ter_store Regards, Anil From: pavan mareddy [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 31 August 2010 PM 03:41 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [twincling] Help needed with regards to buy a laptop Hi Raghu, Cannot say of specific model available in the market but here are some guidelines 1)RAM-2-4 gb minimum for future proof 2)Harddisk-360 minimum-Dual booting -so that you can have atleast 180 gb for each OS.(though 8-20 gb is n Buy 1)Dell -Customer service is the best as far as I know and customisation options are plenty.(Check dell.com) 2)Toshiba for rugged and rough use-A bit heavy but keyboard warriors can vouch for it -dell keyboards will soon run into problems-I recommend Toshiba for rough and tuff use. 3)HP for Decent looks. 4)Sony vaio-Looks +performance work horse laptops 5)Acer-Budget laptops. 6)Compaq-Good laptops -Budget range. If you want peformance choose between Intel i3-i5 chips. AMD chips are good but ask the dealer if they release too much of heat-beacuse heat is a big problem with AMD chips-(I am a AMD advocate-but then you have to decide)AMD has overcome this with their recent new chip architectures.
